Having already shared Just To Tear Me Down earlier this month, we are loving Poolside Boys, another new tune from Flesh World. It too is taken from their upcoming album, The Wild Animals In My Life, out via Iron Lung Records on the 2nd June. As with the previous track, the post-punk influences ranging from Felt to the Cramps are there, but there is a brooding, … Continue reading More From Flesh World
We’ve previously shared Eskimeaux’s I Admit I’m Scared, an excellent track of infectiously meandering, beat-driven, bedroom pop. She has now offered up Sparrow the latest single from her forthcoming album O.K. and it is another gem of indie goodness with sweetly poetic vocals swept along on the back of tribal percussion and understated guitars. Stream it, and her previous single the uptempo Broken Necks below. . . Continue reading New Single From Eskimeaux
Brooklyn’s The Teen Age released their new two-track digital single earlier this month on Old Flame Records, and now the band has shared a video for title track Low Cunning. What starts out as a typical night in with the essentials quickly turns strange for the foursome, who develop injuries and black eyes over the course of the three-minute track. You can watch the booze-fueled, … Continue reading New Video: The Teen Age – Low Cunning
Julie Ann Baenziger aka Sea Of Bees will release her new album Build A Boat To The Sun on June 30th.

Ranchus is a four piece indie rock band from the Faroe Islands, formed more or less by accident in the fall of 2013. Rather bizarrely named after the king of goldfish, Ranchus still seems to be a fitting name for a band hailing from a fisher-nation. Their sound ranges from raw, slightly lo-fi angular rock to something softer and more melancholic – imagine something between The Violent Femmes and the … Continue reading Introducing >>> Ranchus
Roadkill Ghost Choir have put together a four track cover EP of some 80s classics. Chief among them is a brilliantly squally, garage-rockin’ version of Dire Straits’ Walk Of Life. Stream it below together with EP closer, Don Henley’s Boys Of Summer, an altogether more sedate take on the bittersweet original. “Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac A little … Continue reading Roadkill Ghost Choir Covers EP

Sleeping Giant (out May 12th) is the upcoming album from Americana/folk band The Cerny Brothers. The record signifies a new direction for the band, as the music has turned from an acoustic, folk element to a more electric, American rock sound while still keeping the folk spirit from their earlier work. The songs deal with becoming a man and finding identity in a constantly changing world, and realizing … Continue reading The Cerny Brothers – Sleeping Giant
