Cabbage – You’ve Made An Art Form (From Falling To Pieces)

Cabbage are back in our time of global crisis to share a new single – You’ve Made An Art Form (From Falling To Pieces) is three minutes of wiry, full-bodied and typically erudite new-wave-post-punk-agit-indie. Watch the band immersed in a world of heady, arts and crafts-meets-shroomy psychedelia for the single’s colourful video. Now just need to find something to fill the other twenty three hours … Continue reading Cabbage – You’ve Made An Art Form (From Falling To Pieces)

Port Juvee – Desert Moon Palace

Well worth 157 seconds of your day – I mean what else have you got to do? Purchase the album via Bandcamp … Continue reading Port Juvee – Desert Moon Palace

Virginia Trance – Hello Lou Reed

After the halcyon folk-rock & roll of his self-titled debut album, Virginia Trance (Scott Ryan Davis of longstanding MM faves the Psychic Ills) returns with a new, equally engaging record. Vincent’s Playlist, sprawls on early proto-punk and garage jangle that resemble the easier, yet still jagged sounds of The Velvet Underground, Neil Young & Crazy Horse and 80s alternative rock staple Flying Nun Records. Old … Continue reading Virginia Trance – Hello Lou Reed

Catholic Action – Another Name For Loneliness

Catholic Action have shared a brand-new single from their fast-approaching new album Celebrated by Strangers. Another Name For Loneliness is the album’s broad-shouldered centre-piece, employing sweeping strings to create a melancholy sense of slow-burn anthemia. Lead singer and guitarist Chris McCrory says it is about; “Rediscovering pure, joyful and meaningful love as an adult. And learning not to question it.” Stream it here.   Continue reading Catholic Action – Another Name For Loneliness

David Cronenberg’s Wife – Nazarbayev Applause Laughing

Nazarbayev Applause Laughing is the latest single from David Cronenberg’s Wife, taken from new album The Ship (Necrologies). It is another example of their brilliant lo-fi antifolk that thrums along in a hypnotic and surreal way. Acerbic and bleakly black humoured, the band are an acquired taste, but for those of you who like the off-kilter, the weird and the musical equivalent of the League … Continue reading David Cronenberg’s Wife – Nazarbayev Applause Laughing

LICE Share Conveyor & Announce Tour Dates

Bristol’s LICE are back with a brand new single Conveyor, via their own label Settled Law. LICE first gained national attention with debut single The Human Parasite, which we loved, and which established a literate, eccentric brand of satirical art-punk. But what has followed has been a complete about-turn. Disillusioned with the sonic conservatism, twee platitudes and toothless commentary of the ‘satirical guitar music boom’ they … Continue reading LICE Share Conveyor & Announce Tour Dates
