Grunge Rocker From Honeyblood

September 22, 2016 nicole.baumann Leave a comment

Glasgow’s Honeyblood are coming around to releasing their second LP in alittle more than amonth, and just to build your anticipation for that album, they’ve given you a second single. “Sea Hearts” is a rambunctious rocker, which you can pick up on pretty much immediately after the fuzzy guitars sound off in the first few seconds of the song. The vocals are hazy and biting, matching the tone of the guitar, but it’s not too fuzzy or distorted to keep you from belting along with the group as they do some chants towards the end of the track. Take a listen.

Babes Never Die is out October 28th via FatCat Records.

New Music from Honeyblood

June 18, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

One of the many acts that really impressed me during SXSW was Honeyblood, backed by the enthusiastic support of our friend Mike in Scotland. They just released a new single off of their new album, which is a self-titled affair that’s set to be released on July 15th via Fat Cat Records. For a duo, the ladies sure have quite a punch in their sound, although this tune recalls more of an early Metric sound…that’s a compliment in my book. You get a glimpse of their ability to bring some noise on the back side of the song, as the guitars get distorted, but just don’t ignore the sugar-y quality of the vocals…despite the subject matter. Hope you enjoy.

Bouncing Pop from Honeyblood

April 1, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

When our friend Mike came over to the States for SXSW, he told me one of the acts I needed to keep an eye upon was the Scottish duo, Honeyblood. They’ve caught on recently, with this track below popping up on one of those big web site last week; it’s definitely an example of the girls and their catchy hooks. They’ve got a new record coming out in July via Fat Cat; it’ll be a self-titled release. Personally, I thought their set was entertaining, but I’ll admit, this song has a whole lot more energy…making the group something to keep an eye on.
