We’ve oft mentioned our love for some of the bands coming out of Ireland at the moment – Fontaines D.C., Murder Capital and the wonderful Silverbacks. It is the latter who have released a new single, the propulsive, chugging Pink Tide, is another crackerjack of a tune brimming over with sardonic humour and sinewy twin guitars. It tells the tale of a slow unravelling of fashionable and … Continue reading New Silverbacks Single
Canadian foursome Dumb deliver catchy post-punk songs in two-minute blasts of wiry riffs and full of indignant social critiques. They have shared their new single Beef Hits from their upcoming album Club Nites – out on the 7th June via Mint Records (order here). Coming in at just over two minutes, there is a snarl and boisterousness that is happily reminiscent of the likes of Bodgea … Continue reading Dumb – Beef Hits
Green & Blue will be released by up and coming Irish band The Murder Capital as a limited 12″ single on June 14th via Human Season Records. We’ve already shared their brilliant Feeling Fades single, and this is another wonderfully foreboding record – all sinewy, coiled tenseness that barely lets up its stranglehold over six minutes of taut guitar rumble and brooding vocals. It’s great stuff! … Continue reading The Murder Capital – Green & Blue
BEAK> are back with some brand new music in the form of Life Goes On – the first track to be lifted from a forthcoming EP. The track is inspired directly from a recent trip to Mexico City for a festival when the band awoke to the sound of a distorted young girls’ voice bellowing across the city. Further investigation revealed the source as a recording used by scrap-collecting … Continue reading BEAK> – Life Goes On
Experimental art-rock group Deliluh have shared a new single taken from their forthcoming new mini LP (out on 3rd May) called Oath of Intent. Twisting drone, stoner rock and post-punk into a fierce sonic identity, Rabbit is a visceral and gritty warning about the corruption that is present everywhere. Stream it below. Pre-order the album from Bandcamp here. See them live in May 6 – … Continue reading Deliluh Share Rabbit

Had to post this – a special from yesterday’s Record Store Day and featuring the marvellous Meatraffle and Madonnatron sharing the lead on two, what I presume are Italian Rebel Songs given the song titles and the title of the release… no flies on us folks! Anyway, just listen to both below. Order the 7″ vinyl or digital download from Bandcamp here. … Continue reading Meatraffle vs Madonnatron Italian Rebel Song Record Store Day Special!
Leeds-based post-punk outfit Drahla have shared a new single from their upcoming Useless Coordinates LP due out 3rd May on Captured Tracks. Pyramid Estate is another wonderfully disorientating track, clocking in at less than two minutes, thriving on hectic collisions and a sense of hazy, fragmented confusion (particularly some wonderfully skronky saxophone that could have come from a classic Gong album) to create something wholly … Continue reading Drahla Share Pyramid Estate
Emerging experimental art-rock group Deliluh have announced a brand-new mini LP, Oath of Intent, for release on the 3rd May via Tin Angel (UK/EU) and Telephone Explosion (CA/US). The band have shared the first cut from the record – Freeloader Feast is a gritty, urgent, visceral explosion of a tune. The accompanying video was shot on 16 mm film in a vacant room of the … Continue reading Introducing >>> Deliluh
