Brand New Annabel Allum

Leave a comment

If anyone asked me about what my favorite act during this past SXSW year, I probably would have had Annabel Allum high upon my list, if not at the top. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to bring the whole band our way, but the recorded version of her latest tune has me just as excited as the intimate display she offered us. She’s got this incredible knack to create these insatiable hooks within her songs, even as she sounds dangerous and devil-may-care. I love how she even brings in a brief respite near the song’s end before blasting to a close. She’s done it again…so keep her on your radar.

The Terminals Return with New Album

Leave a comment

It’s been a decade since we’ve heard anything fresh from New Zealand’s The Terminals, one of the country’s most prominent figures. They return this year with Antiseptic, and the announcement comes with this brilliant track. The sensation and the song title, “Runaway Train” fit together perfectly, and the tune leads you down the harrowing path of a locomotive losing control. Strings are stretched in the background, wound discordantly in your ears, then Peter Stapleton brings in his near-operatic deep vocal tones. I have no idea where this train, nor this LP, is going, but if I can grab a ticket, I surely will. The album comes out on May 19th via Ba Da Bing.

Slotface Announce Their Debut

Leave a comment

Just by clicking the soundcloud stream, you can see that in a mere matter of days, Slotface has started to become a name that will surely be more than just mere buzz. The group delivered a raucous set during SXSW, which was rather surprising considering the Norway group’s young age. This is anthemic rock n’ roll of the best sort, and it carries with it a huge hook that nods to Patti Smith…showing that while they may be young, they know what’s good for you. Be ready to have a rocking good time when the band release Try Not to Freak Out in September.
