Another eight tracks, some older than others, all worth some of your attention, give it to me now… The Ethical Debating Society have just released debut album New Sense on London’s excellent Odd Box Records. Across 14 … Continue reading Another Monday Round-Up

Following on from our Monday Morning Round Up post, here is a second instalment of another eight fine tunes that we have uncovered whilst trying to catch up with our in-box. All starting with some easy going country rock from Americana band The Afternoon Edition. The solid harmonies and laid back approach on their debut single Canyon Lights recalls such greats as The Band and Crosby Stills … Continue reading MM’s Wednesday Morning Round Up
Milwaukee psych-punks The Rashita Joneses have a new 7″ release to share that show the trio in a light of a developing sound, this time, thicker, nastier, yet catchier than ever. The title track My Finger throws down a gauntlet of grunge-inspired riffs. And in true Joneses fashion, it features catchy vocal melodies…screaming “Fuck the system…fuck the man. I’m eating pizza in my van!” And then the dudes … Continue reading The Rashita Joneses – My Finger 7″
Our in-box is once again sinking slowly in a deluge of new music and videos, and even once we’ve deleted all the e-mails about house bangers, dance remixes, and other such nonsense we’re still left with an unfathomably large number of songs to listen to… However, listen we do, and here is a short selection from all around the world (Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Sweden, … Continue reading MM’s Monday Morning Round Up

Argentinian five piece Kill West will release debut long player Smoke Beach, digitally and via limited edition pink cassette (order here). It is eight tracks of prime psych-rock: fuzz drenched, distorted and reverb laden.

If you’re lucky… Stream Out To The … Continue reading MM Shorts 732: Kill West
London four-piece, Telegram will release new single Aeons on their own Gram Gram label on the 10th of July. Channelling their love of Roxy Music, Syd Barrett, krautrock and late proto-punk to great effect, we’ve already posted the A side here, and the flipside is the band’s unique take of Needles In The Camel’s Eye, from Brian Eno’s classic 1973 album Here Comes The Warm Jets. … Continue reading Telegram Cover Brian Eno
First formed in 2010, Birmingham’s The Castillians long awaited second album You & Me, will be released on vinyl and digital in late October. The album takes a slightly more soulful direction than much loved (and recently re-released) incendiary debut Show Your Teeth that fused garage, punk and psych rock into one perfectly unholy whole, but keeps up with the energy and hooks. Check out the blistering title track … Continue reading The Castillians – You & Me
Ohioan have featured sporadically on MM over the years, their brand of desert baked experimental Americana sitting somewhere between Giant Sand, Tinariwen and the expansive grandeur of Other Lives. They will release a new album titled EMPTY / EVERY MT in early 2016 and you can stream / download the epic almost-seven minutes of Pissing At Will, the first taste (if that’s the appropriate expression) from it… Continue reading MM Shorts 730: Ohioan
