New From Pop. 1280
Pop. 1280 make it their business to trade in unease, disquiet and suspicion – shining a light into the darkest, deepest recesses of our collective behaviour and exposing the flaws and sub-truths we peddle to ourselves and each other – particularly where it relates to the might of the corporate and political machines. Paradise, will be their third full-length album and it is an unforgiving look … Continue reading New From Pop. 1280
Morning Smoke – How Does It Feel
Having mentioned Bristol as a rival to Brighton earlier with our post on Velcro Hooks, we have the other side of the coin with another track from Brighton’s Morning Smoke. They have featured a few times on MM and the crushingly good How Does It Feel is the b side to latest release Soft Decay. It showcases to even greater effect their brooding and ominous post-punk that … Continue reading Morning Smoke – How Does It Feel
MM Shorts 800: Velcro Hooks
Bristol may be the only city rivalling Brighton for new music at the moment and Velcro Hooks are a Bristol based band who deal in the very best kind of fuzzed-out post-punk. Since releasing a handful of well received singles and EPs via the excellent Howling Owl Records, they have been lying low for a little while, writing, recording, editing, and mixing their debut record, which … Continue reading MM Shorts 800: Velcro Hooks
Introducing >>> Mayflower Madame
Back in early 2014 we posted a video from Norway’s neo-psych rockers Mayflower Madame, it was for the title track taken from their excellent debut EP Into The Haze. In March next year they will release their first full-length, Observed In A Dream, and this single Lovesick is the first, mighty fine, taste we’ve had from it. The track gallops out of the traps (with a whiff of … Continue reading Introducing >>> Mayflower Madame

The Return Of Sennen
It’s been four years since Norwich indie quartet, Sennen released their last album of visceral shoegaze noise and beautiful dream pop Lost Harmony and exactly ten years this month since their debut album Widows was released. Now you can get a taste of their new single, Autopilot. At just over seven minutes long, this opus is a hypnotic, haunting and ultimately violent sprawl across abandonment and rediscovery. “Are … Continue reading The Return Of Sennen
MM Shorts 792: Nap Eyes
With sonic touchstones like The Go-Betweens (particularly Robert Forster’s melancholic bite), The Only Ones, Lou Reed, Nikki Sudden, and Bedhead, Canada’s Nap Eyes will release their new album, Thought Rock Fish Scale, on the 5th February via Paradise of Bachelors. The first taste comes via the taut opening track, Mixer, which uses the space between ringing chords to deconstruct a party episode into an analytical out-of-body experience, charting a path … Continue reading MM Shorts 792: Nap Eyes
