The Twenty Best Things We Heard, Saw, And Discovered At The Green Man Festival

Our first visit to the brilliant Green Man Festival. Here are the twenty best things we heard, saw and discovered over the weekend. 1. The Parquet Courts live up to the hype Like the Ramones on speed, the four-piece transcended all the hype with the set of the weekend – a thrilling, occasionally ramshackle, breakneck excursion into punk, slacker pop and moshpit heaven, and in … Continue reading The Twenty Best Things We Heard, Saw, And Discovered At The Green Man Festival

New EP From Wolf Alice

We were big fans of Wolf Alice’s first two singles so when a promo of their latest release, a four track EP titled Blush, dropped through the letterbox we gave it a spin pretty much straight away. While the roaring, wall of sound approach remains much in evidence, the songs display a bit more subtlety and scope, even dabbling with some bruised pop sensibilities in places. … Continue reading New EP From Wolf Alice

Jeffertitti’s Nile Get All Blissed Out

MM Shorts 430: The Spasms

The Spasms is an excellent name for a band, especially one dealing in adrenalin fuelled, garage-punk-psych all the way from the sheds of Melbourne, Australia. We Better Operate is the band’s debut album, independently released by the band, and contains nine tracks clocking in at less than 23 minutes. Not a minute wasted, not a second spare – dive into a couple of tracks below. We … Continue reading MM Shorts 430: The Spasms

Introducing >>> The Fire Tapes

With their forthcoming album Phantoms, to be released September 17th, The Fire Tapes have continued to experiment with sonic textures and sprawling noise in the tradition of The Velvet Underground, while still pushing the envelope and blurring the lines of conventional genres, much in the vein of Brian Wilson or Gram Parsons. Give yourself a taste with a download of the nine minute epic of rolling … Continue reading Introducing >>> The Fire Tapes

Introducing >>> Spring King

Manchester based Spring King make maxed out wall-of-sound pop, dripping in frantic energy and slap-back delay. Having already drawn favourable comparisons with Kurt Vile and Iceage, first single proper Better Man draws from the anthemic full throttle drive of Springsteen, but through the fuzzed out trippy kaleidoscope of Ty Segall. Recorded at home in a broken bathroom, you can almost see the faded wallpaper and sickly … Continue reading Introducing >>> Spring King

Now we have the slower, creepier Bumpy Road, a nerve shredding six minute odyssey into an unrelenting nightmare. Listen below. Enjoy the trip! Continue reading Another From Destruction Unit
