Dropkick Announce The Wireless Revolution

Leave a comment

So glad to have a new Dropkick tune to warm us up a little bit today. The group, led by Andrew Taylor (also of Boys with Perpetual…) are masters of crisp pop songwriting, hanging out somewhere in the realm between jangle rock and power pop. Just like his other project, there’s nothing that blankets you in joy like the sound of Taylor’s voice; it’s got that fireside familiarity, allowing you to revel in the crisp riffs that ring out. Good old guitar pop doesn’t get any better than what this lot push out there; their new album the Wireless Revolution will be out this April.

Beige Banquet Kick Out Acid Bath

Leave a comment

Been spending a bit of the morning toying with the pop side of things, so was glad this new Beige Banquet tune came my way, to kind of keep me in touch with my rock n’ roll vibes. This track reminds me in a sense of acts like Omni or Deeper, toying on the edge of post-punk, though here the lyrical approach feels more frantic. It’s got this sort of stage-stalking madness to it, envisioning the vocalist manically waling about the stage and riling up the audience. It’s a maddening rush of riotous cool, and I can’t help but to turn it all the way up on my speakers.

Soulful New Tune From Mope

Leave a comment

UK based artist Mope just dropped this new single “Velveteen” and I simply had to share it with you all this morning. The song has this really groovy, soulful inspiration of droning organ paired with hints of singer/songwriter stylings and psych rock sensibilities. It flows together beautifully and shows an expert level knack for how to craft a solid, ear worm inducing song. Stay tuned for more music as the news comes in.

The Early Monrnings Share Ultra Modern Rain

Leave a comment

If you’re not into a jittery bit of rock n’ roll, then perhaps skip on my friend. But, if you love the sound, love the way it throws your center-of-balance off, or love the way it perfectly contrasts with melody, then you’re going to love this new track from The Early Mornings. This brand new single runs straight for you, charging like an enraged bull with this throbbing bass line and sharp guitar. But, Annie Leader’s melodic entry doesn’t slow things down, rather it makes the song all the more insatiable, building up the playfulness and volume as it bounces towards the close. If you dig it, the band release their Ultra Modern Rain EP on January 20th.

Another Banger From Jaws The Shark

Leave a comment

London based artist Olly Bailey has really been delivering some solid, rocking jams recently under his recording moniker Jaws the Shark. Today his new single called “Reno” is yet another real example of a true knack for crafting some catchy, raucous, and energy packed rock tunes. Take some time to give it a listen, you won’t be disappointed.

Jaws the Shark will be releasing this track as part of a self-titled EP due out on November 25th via So Recordings.

 

Paul Thomas Saunders Shares Cruel

Leave a comment

Brighton based artist Paul Thomas Saunders has really altered and molded my musical tastes over the last few months with the new singles he’s been releasing. As one who usually gravitates towards louder, guitar and bass focused sounds, Saunders has thrown me for a loop with his slower, melodic and sometimes broodier take on songwriting. His latest single, “Cruel”, is a track that can take you on a sort of rollercoaster of emotion through joy, happiness and back again to simply relief. These songs are truly stunning and powerful examples of the emotional impact a songwriter can have on us all.

Saunders will release his new album Figure in a Landscape on October 21st via 7476 Records. Pre-orders are live now.

 

Video Premiere: Fujiya & Miyagi Drop New Body Language

Leave a comment

Brighton based Fujiya & Miyagi is simply one of the most well known names in the indie electronic pop game, having started their musical career over twenty years ago. Nathan and I have really been seeing the tunes coming out this year as a welcome return to the band’s engaging, dance pop ways. So naturally we were thrilled and excited when asked to premiere this new single with accompanying video for “New Body Language”. This, sure to be on your weekend party mix, song will be the last track released before new album Slight Variations is released on Friday. Pre-orders are currently live for digital and physical releases of the LP.

Here’s some words from David Best on both the track and the video:

Track: “New body Language is probably the most instant and accessible song on the record. We took a lot of our current listening habits and put them in a blender till it turned out like us.”

Video: “The video Bob Brown & I made plays with the idea of perception. How we appear to ourselves is generally not how we are perceived by others.”

Ollie Cook Shares Apocalypse Now

Leave a comment

We’re close to closing out the week ya’ll, but before we do, take a moment to listen to this new tune “Apocalypse Now” from Wolverhampton based artist Ollie Cook. His songwriting is an impressive bit of rock meets folk with contemplative lyrics and subtle, yet well placed rhythms. Sort of like a Damien Jurado type but with more tendencies to let things loose and rock from time to time. You’ll find this song progresses like a dream in its near 5 minute length.

If you’re digging this one, Cook has a new album entitled The Boy With Pearls for Eyes streaming over on Bandcamp.

Raucous New Single From Bandit

Leave a comment

Clearly I’ve been in a rock, or just generally more upbeat mood when it comes to my musical selections and tastes this week. Liverpool based outfit Bandit is certainly scratching that itch today with this banging new single called “Vagabond”. The track has a very early 00s inspiration to it with clear influences of say Arctic Monkeys or even Kaiser Chiefs. It’s one hell of a fun tune and I suggest you check it out below.

Straight Rocker From Jaws The Shark

Leave a comment

Jaws the Shark is the somewhat ironic musical moniker of London based musician Olly Bailey. He’s been busy since starting the new project in 2020 with tons of singles and an EP entitled Another Day in Paradise coming out last year. For me, Bailey makes a brand of hook laden, riff heavy rock n roll clearly inspired by the late 90s with Oasis vibes mixed with more modern rockers like Wavves or White Reaper. His new track released today, “Destroy the World”, features guest work from Dinosaur Pile-Up and is a perfect example of this straight rock n roll with modern touches style. This one is out today via all platforms from So Recordings.
