We’ve loved both the tracks we’ve heard so far from Aussie five piece Beaches forthcoming double album Second Of Spring (out 8th September). The third single to be shared is Arrow, possibly the most infectious yet with a huge riff lifted heavenward by massed guitars, layered vocals and driving percussion, and not only that, there’s a great video to watch too. Filmed by Beaches’ own Antonia Sellback, … Continue reading More From Beaches
We’ve already shared tracks from Micah P. Hinson’s new album The Holy Strangers, but nothing that compares with this! Micah Book One, is the centrepiece of the record and at almost 8 minutes long, finds our man reading from the chapter of the same name. A sparse, compelling and sometimes downright uncomfortable tale of gluttony and religion wrapped up in almost apocalyptic despondency. Listen below and … Continue reading Micah P Hinson – Micah Book One
Soft Fangs is the musical project of Brooklyn-based songwriter, John Lutkevich. We’ve featured him a couple of times, but never with a tune as good as this one. Honey Colony drips around the ears in a completely beguiling and seductive manner, melding the story of a bee with that of a workaholic. It is taken from forthcoming album Fractures (out on the 1st September). Influences like … Continue reading Soft Fangs – Honey Colony

Church Girls will release long player Hidalgo on the 15th September. If the evidence of Breaking Bones and Better Off are anything to go by, it promises to be a rather tasty record of melodic, beguiling introspective indie rock. Much to like here, have a listen.
