Much like yesterday’s Monday morning round-up post, we’ve now selected just a few of the excellent videos that have arrived in our in-box over the past few days and weeks for your viewing (and listening) pleasure. So without further ado start with the wonderful old time banjo of Willie Watson at Pickathon, and by way of Andy Shauf, Darren Hayman, The Asylums, Streets Of Laredo, The April … Continue reading Tuesday Morning Video Round Up
We’ve been clearing up (or down, or out, or whatever the term is) our in-box over the weekend and from the plethora of remixes, ‘bangers’, and electro-pop that went straight into the trash we have picked these gems for you to set your working week off on the right foot… . Goldishack’s Devil Can Dance is a dark, fuzzed-out dirge, a tale of moral conflict … Continue reading Monday Morning Round Up

Darling Arithmetic is the third album from Villagers, set for release in April. The follow-up to Conor O’Brien’s debut, Becoming a Jackal, and its successor, Awayland – both hugely acclaimed and each nominated for the Mercury Prize – is a beautiful, intimate album entirely about love and relationships.

Blossoms will release their psych-pop infused new single Cut Me And I’ll Bleed on the 2nd March through Skeleton Key Records. A shimmering, swaggering, tripped out groove anchors the song and places it firmly in the world of the Doors, the Bunnymen and The Coral – in our book, that’s not a bad place to be at all. Order a signed copy of the 7″ … Continue reading Blossoms – Cut Me And I’ll Bleed Single
