EXCLUSIVE ALBUM STREAM: Fleeting Persuasion – Forever Caught

  We’re very pleased to be able to premiere a stream of the brand new album from Fleeting Persuasion, the latest nom de plume of Melbourne songwriter James Spencer Harrison.

NEW MUSIC: Holy Void – I Will Never Be Again

Rising out of the sonic mist come Holy Void (Canada) with this heavyweight piece of psych rock that lumbers and sways along. It’s heavy without being HEAVY, has melodies that drip from it like sickly sweet toffee and  possesses enough rust and peeling paint to make it sound like it was beamed in from another time. Great stuff and an intoxicating  introduction that will drag … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Holy Void – I Will Never Be Again

NEW MUSIC: The Klubs – Loosen The Crown

For fans of Protomartyr, METZ, Viagra Boys, Pissed Jeans Lay down a rhythm section that has the heft and swing of Jesus Lizard, guitar that scissors and slashes across the speakers and a suitably belligerent and unhinged post-punk vocal and you’ve got a damn fine song from South African band The Klubs. It’s a hell of a bass line that drives this thing, leading it … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: The Klubs – Loosen The Crown

NEW MUSIC: Domiciles – Sinking Sun

Domiciles (Fife, Scotland) have released this new seven minute slab of hypnotic psych rock. ‘Sinking Sun’ is the second single taken from debut album This Is Not a Zen Garden, set for release this Friday (16/08/19) via Last Night From Glasgow. The vocals are subdued, buried in the shadowy corners of the song as the rhythm section does the heavy lifting, laying the foundation for guitars that … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Domiciles – Sinking Sun

NEW MUSIC: The Laurels – Sound System

The Laurels are back with a new single/video, ‘Sound System’, their first with new member Kat Harley (Mezko) on bass and vocals. As usual they’re working that hazy and fascinating space between genres that they’ve always navigated so well. Indie rock with art-pop melodies filtered through shoegaze and psych. This time round the song has a distinctly futuristic sheen to it, in keeping with its … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: The Laurels – Sound System

NEW MUSIC: Shifting Sands – The Intensity

Brisbane band Shifting Sands recently released the video clip for their track ‘The Intensity’. It’s a haunting, heavy and steady marching song of solemn reflection on the slow decay of the emotional impact of love. It carries the same kind of bruised romanticism that artists such as Mark Lanegan and Leonard Cohen do so well. Shifting Sands are Geoff Corbett (SixFtHick) and Dylan McCormack (Gentle … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Shifting Sands – The Intensity

NEW MUSIC: Beauts – The City Loves Me (Radio Edit)

Beauts hail from Halifax, Nova Scotia and on this track they’ve dialed into that melancholic indie rock vibe that hovers somewhere between The National, War On Drugs and the jangling insistence of Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever. It all flows effortlessly – maudlin yet gently propulsive and wistfully melodic. After releasing a couple of EPs, the band are working on their debut album, set for release … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Beauts – The City Loves Me (Radio Edit)

NEW MUSIC: Hail!Maggiedacat – Gemini Moon

The wonderfully named Hail!Maggiedacat is a London producer and visual artist and this track, ‘Gemini Moon’, comes from her new EP Impossible Woman. It’s got a great, woozy 80s vibe about it like a lost video game or a soundtrack to a melancholic sci-fi TV series. The rest of the EP has a similarly dream-psych analog synth vibe to it too. Highly recommended.     Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Hail!Maggiedacat – Gemini Moon

NEW MUSIC: Anonymous Friends – Amos

Anonymous Friends – straight outta Somerville, Massachusetts with their debut EP Anonymous Friends Start A Band. Great sound too – shades of Fugazi, Polvo , Girls Against Boys, Bailter Space and the like. ‘Amos’ does the loud quiet loud thing well with a tight rhythm section and some noisy Pixies six-string racket smeared across the top of it all. Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Anonymous Friends – Amos

NEW MUSIC: Wine Flies – Business

Some wonderfully weird-pop here courtesy of Wine Flies, the solo project of Swedish musician Henrik Lennartsson. It hits that same spaced-out, fever dream vibe of John Maus and Ariel Pink with a warped, lo-fi production aesthetic that accentuates the haunted feel of the music. “Business was the result of me, merely improvising keys over a beat. I never know what I’m gonna get, since I … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Wine Flies – Business
