We also have a road trip of jangle pop from The Shilohs, and finally some cool animation from The Eversons for … Continue reading Videos of the Day: Simone Felice || Ivan & Alyosha || The Shilohs || The Eversons

MM Shorts 413: Soho Riots

Admittedly we’re a little late to the party with Liverpool/Manchester based indie rockers Soho Riots and their recently released debut three-track single I Only Want to Talk. However, the pleasingly anthemic Who’s Your Man? grabbed our ears with its chiming guitars from the very first play, and full on demanded to be heard. Grab it below. Continue reading MM Shorts 413: Soho Riots

Loving La Vega

We’re loving this catchy, surf infused slice of reverb soaked, summer joy from Austin’s garage rockers La Vega. Do The Surfer Girl Limbo is the perfect ode to hot days at the beach full of popping pills and chasing girls. Sounds real good to us…have a listen. Continue reading Loving La Vega

New Album From Israel Nash Gripka

Israel Nash Gripka is a new name to us, but when we discovered he was the newest signing to our favourite UK label Loose Music (joining the Felice Brothers, Jim White, Handsome Family, Willard Grant Conspiracy, Frontier Ruckus, Hurray For The Riff Raff and more) then we knew it would be well worth a listen. We were right. The gorgeous Woman At The Well is taken from his forthcoming … Continue reading New Album From Israel Nash Gripka

Yuck Are Back

Following the loss of frontman Daniel Blumberg to Hebronix, Yuck are back with a new track, the chiming, and appropriately named, Rebirth. It sits somewhere between Beach House’s dream pop and some of the less histrionic and fragile soundscapes of MBV. Download it below. Continue reading Yuck Are Back

MM Shorts 412: Origami Horses

We’re loving this single from Canterbury duo Origami Horses. Velvet Rock is a contemporary classic-in-waiting hewn and mutated from the grand rock attitudes that stretch from the garage rock trailblazers of the 60s to the confrontational end of the Velvets chug. Have a listen. The single is out on Magnetic Eye Records and an album, Trashola, will follow in September. Continue reading MM Shorts 412: Origami Horses
