Sun Angle’s singular brand of frenetic and sprawling psych-punk draws inspiration from mid-period SST bands like Meat Puppets while simultaneously connecting the threads between Can, 70s-era Miles Davis and early Fleetwood Mac. Their new record, Skullflower is out on the 21st October and you can listen to Drink The Moon from it below. According to the band, the song is “about a person fed up … Continue reading Sun Angle – Drink The Moon

Delighted to have a new single to share from the down-to-earth, but utterly psychotic duo The Lovely Eggs. Sick of hearing people crowing about how many drugs they’ve done on a night out or at a festival, their retort is a big fuck-you to the pricks with a typically surreal insight into their crazy world. Appropriately titled Drug Braggin’, it is a brilliant fuzzed up … Continue reading New Lovely Eggs Single
