The second instalment rounding up some tunes we missed from the tail end of 2017. Let’s kick off with Yowl’s relentless and uneasy Darkroom, a wonderfully vicious and febrile slice of post-punk. Night Herons’ raw sound is a visceral blend of garage rock and chugging proto-punk – for fans of classic bands like The Stooges or the New York Dolls. Norwegian psych-rockers Electric Eye’s single Sometimes … Continue reading New Year Round Up (Part 2)
Our final personal list of the year is from the fairest, and finest, of fishes… Mrs Mackerel. 2017: probably a year when I’ve listened to the least new music in recent times, so this is very much a short list in all senses. Life – and death – gets in the way sometimes. 10 PINS – Serve the Rich It’s no surprise that Jamie Hince … Continue reading MM’s Best of 2017: Mrs Mackerel

Here is a second taste from Whispertown’s upcoming long player I’m A Man. Born To Ride opens the record and is a gently rolling, understated slice of Americana infused with a tinge of psych and twang. It is a gem of a tune. Immerse yourself below. Continue reading More From Whispertown
The beguiling I’m A Man marks the return of Morgan Nagler’s Whispertown – it is the title track from her upcoming record out at the start of September, and the follow-up to 2012’s Parallel. It is a stripped back acoustic album, set in a naturally psychedelic world. Whispertown is the latest iteration of the unique vision of Nagler. What was once The Whispertown 2000 has morphed … Continue reading Whispertown – I’m A Man
