New Single From Eula

Last year’s single I Collapse by Eula found much favour here at MM, grabbing a place in our favourite tracks of the year, and on first listen, latest 7″ release Orderly is destined to do the same. It is a brilliantly discordant cacophony of angular, clashing rhythms, viscerally wailed vocals and industrial, skull numbing percussion. Have a listen. Out on Bloodmoss Records on the 15th July … Continue reading New Single From Eula

Todo Muere Vol. 4

Videos of the Day: Ruby The Rabbitfoot || Daddy Lion || Hounds || Made Violent || Together Pangea

Our five music films come today from Ruby the RabbitFoot and her beguiling track Ways, from Daddy Lion and their new video for No Solution But Resolution. Then we turn it up a bit with Hounds’ cover of the classic Ministry track Stigmata, the Strokes style swagger of Made Violent’s anthem of youthful decadence Wasted Days and lastly together PANGEA’s give us a glimpse into their world with … Continue reading Videos of the Day: Ruby The Rabbitfoot || Daddy Lion || Hounds || Made Violent || Together Pangea

Girl Band – Lawman (Free Download)

Firstly, Girl Band does not contain any girls. They are a four piece in their late teens / early 20’s from Dublin, wet behind the ears, and they play music that sits somewhere between Pissed Jeans, !!!, Butthole Surfers, Shellac and Liars. The frankly awesome six minute tribal stomp and slash of new single Lawman was released on the 10th January on limited 7″, on cotton … Continue reading Girl Band – Lawman (Free Download)

MM’s 5:1 Interview No. 15: Young Knives

A month ago, Young Knives released their fourth album proper (and fifth if you count debut mini-album The Young Knives …Are Dead) entitled Sick Octave. Funded by a Kickstarter campaign, it is a typically wilful and exhilarating sharp left turn from the band following the bright indie pop of Ornaments From The Silver Arcade, encompassing jagged industrial beats, ferocious krautrock, the occasional sneering brit-pop pastiche, and … Continue reading MM’s 5:1 Interview No. 15: Young Knives

New From DZ Deathrays

After releasing their excellent debut LP of ferocious, thrash party anthems Bloodstreams last year, Australia’s DZ Deathrays have literally spent the last eighteen months touring the world. Now the duo have offered up the first taste of their forthcoming sophomore LP (scheduled for the first half of 2014) in the form of a crushing new single entitled Northern Lights. Continue reading New From DZ Deathrays

New Young Knives Track

We have had a taste already from the Young Knives forthcoming album Sick Octave, which sees a release on November 4th following a successful Kickstarter campaign. Here is another, and Something Awful would seem to confirm that the three piece have gleefully taken a sharp left to deliver something darker and more industrial than anything they have done before. The band say of the song, “Something … Continue reading New Young Knives Track

Pop. 1280 – Imps Of Perversion

Pop. 1280 memorably delivered a debut album, The Horror, that was so brutal in parts it managed to be almost physically painful to listen to. At the same time it had enough within its hardest of hardcore sensibilities to keep the visceral savagery tautly contained, imprisoned in a way that was mighty tense, but which also rewarded the listener with some mighty fine tunes to, well to … Continue reading Pop. 1280 – Imps Of Perversion

New Tunes On Monday

A new week, some new tunes to soften the blow. We have a taste (if that’s the right word) from Diarrhea Planet’s new album I’m Rich Beyond Your Wildest Dreams in the shape of the sleazy, roiling Babyhead. By way of contrast we have Frankie Rose’s new track Sorrow from her scheduled new long player Herein Wild, a deceptively simple and sweetly melancholic pop track … Continue reading New Tunes On Monday
