The Beardy Durfs To Release A Ton Of Bricks

Last year The Beardy Durfs released two 7” singles, the psychedelic, noisy and chaotic Redhead/Cassette Culture and the gorgeous yet deranged Lunch Box/Ponce. These releases gave the two young ruffians from Copenhagen a reputation for playing severely mangled noise rock that mixes white noise with shimmering beauty. Now the band are back with their first ever full length, A Ton Of Bricks, and their sound … Continue reading The Beardy Durfs To Release A Ton Of Bricks

Introducing >>> Wild Smiles

Tangled Hair / Sweet Sixteen is the AA side debut single from Hampshire trio Wild Smiles, released on Invada Records on 11th March as a limited 7 inch and download. With its huge, jangling riff Tangled Hair is classic surfer-stoner rock, Sweet Sixteen is heavier but equally tuneful. What’s apparent from both tracks is that Wild Smiles make the sort of fuzzy yet melodic rock … Continue reading Introducing >>> Wild Smiles

Kiki Pau To Release Pines

Helsinki-based four-piece Kiki Pau began as a rather traditional guitar pop group in 2007 but changed their course radically right after the release of their second album. Giving up on the verse-chorus form and focusing on inner space/time-traveling were key elements that gave birth to Kiki Pau’s new sound and third album, Pines. Heavy on extended guitar jams and effect-driven soundscapes, the album is made … Continue reading Kiki Pau To Release Pines

Debut Album From Hookworms

The magnificently named Hookworms will release their debut album Pearl Mystic on 4th March. Doubtless, if they were based in Austin, Texas they would be being lauded in the same way as some of the very best of the heavier psych-rock bands like The Black Angels, Wooden Shjips, Moon Duo and the like. Instead they are from Leeds, but no matter, this promises to be … Continue reading Debut Album From Hookworms
