A few tasty videos and new songs for you. From the meditative melancholy of The Tallest Man On Earth, the biting psych-pop of She Drew The Gun and Steve Earle’s latest tribute to Guy Clark to the more raucous end of the spectrum and the pummelling post punk of Crows, Taco Mouth’s fiery take down of Trump, some brilliant Stooges style rumblings from Black Futures, experimental electronic … Continue reading Video Round Up
Los Angeles’s The Dream Syndicate have announced the release of These Times, their second album of new music since their 2012 reunion nearly thirty years after they first influenced California’s Paisley Underground scene.

Freak out to it below. Continue reading King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard – Cyboogie
Nottingham band Sancho Panza have shared new single Rearrange The Diamonds. It is a thoroughly enjoyable woozy meander through slacker rock and pastoral psychedelia. There are elements of Kurt Vile’s laid-back insouciance in the zoned-out vocals and while the song drifts good-naturedly along, it never loses its sense of purpose or identity.
