Rhubarb is a superior fruit and unquestionably makes the best crumble filling. Four-piece The Rhubarb Triangle thankfully live up to the quality inherent in the fruit’s name with their original take on indie rock, psychedelia, garage and R&B. Their self-titled debut three track EP is a most promising mix of 60s Carnaby Street cool, Northern soul style groove and a splash of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. … Continue reading Introducing >>> The Rhubarb Triangle

Sleepy Sun have made regular appearances on MM over the past few months and Outside is the latest track to come from forthcoming new album Maui Tears. It is a seamless collision of dovetailed fuzz riffage and laconic, primordial stoner ooze. Weirdly it makes us think of Phosphorescent fronting Pink Floyd…whatever, it is one heck of a tune! Pre-order the album here. . Continue reading More From Sleepy Sun
