Concluding the noisy theme of the day’s posts, Dinosaur Pile-Up have unveiled this excellent video for new single Derail, which is out on the 16th June. Shot in the middle of the Californian desert, it is the first video from their new album, Nature Nurture, and is part Tarantino and part Hitchcock with a hint of kitsch. Have a watch and keep your eyes peeled for … Continue reading New Video From Dinosaur Pile-Up
Like their name, Hookworms have relentlessly continued to burrow their way into our psyche ever since we first came across them back in January 2012. A year later we were joyously pummelled into gibbering, drooling submission by their debut album Pearl Mystic – a triumph of modern day, heavy psychedelic rock that announced them as serious British contenders to dine at the top table inhabited … Continue reading New Hookworms Single
Sydney’s The Money Go Round have a sound that is a modern, and frankly pretty intriguing, spin on 60s psychedelic and surf rock, with a swampy yet melodic edge. The release of their debut single YAYAYA saw them pick up some immediate attention and they will follow this up on May 3rd with the release of their excellent tripped-out new single Endless Sun. By our reckoning … Continue reading Introducing >>> The Money Go Round
We’re loving this track from Brass Bed’s forthcoming third long player The Secret Will Keep You out next week on Crossbill Records. Please Don’t Go is three minutes of infectious indie-rock perfection with a soupçon of garage rock attitude that calls to mind the best of Dr Dog or perhaps Modest Mouse. Either way, the pounding percussion, soaring chorus and nagging organ line are irresistible. Party on! … Continue reading MM Shorts 357: Brass Bed
Here are a couple more free gems via Noisetrade that should be added to your iTunes library posthaste. We discovered the indie-folk of Horse To Water via a FB post from longtime MM fave Wooden Wand. Their album Not Me But The Mountain is described as “a journey through the minds of vivid characters that live on the fringe“, and so it proves as it is filled … Continue reading More Gems From NoiseTrade
Short films of the musical variety today come from Pickwick and their genre bending video for the brilliant Lady Luck, and some classic Americana from Turnstile Junkpile. A European jaunt is the scenic backdrop for one of our new favourite bands Allah-Las and their video for Sacred Sands, which is another brilliant slice of West Coast inspired psych-rock. Lastly, some classic jangle-pop from Ski Lodge and … Continue reading Videos of the Day: Pickwick || Turnstile Junkpile || Allah-Las || Ski Lodge
BLEECH have released a stream of a brand new track titled Not Like You this week taken from their new album Humble Sky scheduled for release this summer. It ventures into sonically heavier waters than those they have previously paddled in and is none the worse for it. Thankfully they have not sacrificed any of their trademark melodies and have delivered a very satisfying slab of … Continue reading Bleech Stream New Single & Tour Dates
We have been big supporters of Grass House from the days of their brilliant debut EP back in the spring of 2010. So it is a genuine pleasure to hear they have now been signed by Marshall Teller Records, and even more so that they have unveiled a brand new album track which they are giving away as a free download. Spinning As We Turn is … Continue reading New Track From Grass House
Sunjacket are an indie rock band hailing from Chicago. They have put together a free four track demo on Bandcamp which really is well worth a bit of your time to take a listen. It ranges from the poignant and wistful to the taut and impulsive, and the band show themselves across the four songs to be more creatively imaginative and explorative than they have … Continue reading Introducing >>> Sunjacket
We are criminally and unforgivably late with this one, but shoegaze sympathising folkies Ex-Painters have a new single for free download via their Bandcamp. It is called Kevinshields and was released in honour of the new MBV album (which shows exactly how late we are posting this). . Continue reading MM Shorts 356: Ex-Painters
