New Single From Abattoir Blues

Brighton five piece Abattoir Blues channel all their social injustice frustrations and emotive issues through a very distinctive wall of sound – part psych, part noise, part sludge rock, part punk. All good. The band have just shared their new track Fading. It is released tomorrow on 7” vinyl alongside lead track Sense (order here). Fading is a blistering slab of caustic post-punk, written following public and media … Continue reading New Single From Abattoir Blues

MM Shorts 888: Bassett

Inspired by the vast California deserts, LA-based alt folk duo Bassett have a new EP Ghost Hwy out on the 18th November. Their sound is perhaps best described as being something like the lovechild of Nirvana and Radiohead (if they had moved out West and become Burners)… introspective, intense, and very psychedelic.

Fauna Twin – Hydra EP

An unorthodox collaboration borne of Paris and Wales, Fauna Twin is a duo combining ultra suave pop, Lynchian imagery and macabre lyrics rooted in traditional folklore and coming together into one catchy as hell psychedelic labyrinth. A kind of hybrid shoegazish-drama-pop if you will. On their new Hydra EP, standard pop arrangements are twisted into something unique, innovative and subtly savage, and nowhere more so than on Edge of … Continue reading Fauna Twin – Hydra EP
