Ten years later we are happy and proud to welcome this band,THE STATYCS in FUZZ OVERDOSE RECORDS family.BRAINTHROUGH is the band’s debut release ,an absolutely amazing ORGAN-DRENCHED album with ten brand new and own compositions and one cover(surprisingly an unusual for a Garage Rock band).BRAINTHROUGH sound takes you back to the late 80’s early 90’s GARAGE ROCK REVIVAL and bands like THE FUZZTONES,THE CHESTERFIELD KINGS THE CHEEPSKATES and others.It’s obvious that THE STATYCS refuse to follow the tends and trends of nowadays and remain focused on playing the Pure garage rockrevival of the 80’s.A catchy organ line and a simple guitar riff is enough….This is it…work done…ROCK ‘N’ROLL!!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Widows wrote:Louisville, Kentucky's Young Widows formed in 2006 from the ashes of mathcore group Breather Resist. In December 2005, lead singer Steve Sidoni left Breather Resist, and guitarist Evan Patterson and bassist Nick Thieneman assumed the vocal duties. They entered the studio in early 2006 but found the sound change significantly. They then changed the name from Breather Resist to Young Widows.[citation needed]

Preceded by a split 7" with Coliseum, their debut full length titled Settle Down City was released in September 2006 on Jade Tree Records. Citing a lack of interest from Jade Tree, the band later moved to Temporary Residence Limited where they released their second album Old Wounds in September 2008. In late 2008 and early 2009, a series of four split 7"s were released featuring Young Widows and a different band for every split. These were all released by Temporary Residence, and when put together the covers form one 14x14" picture. Original drummer Geoff Paton was replaced by Jeremy McMonigle in 2008. They have toured with bands such as Pelican, Russian Circles, These Arms Are Snakes, Thursday, The Fall of Troy, La Dispute and Daughters.

Their third album, In and Out of Youth and Lightness was released by Temporary Residence in April 2011 and sees the band taking their sound in a quieter noise rock and gothic rock-influenced direction.

Young Widows will release its fourth studio album titled Easy Pain on May 13, 2014 through Temporary Residence.[3]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Boys wrote:The Zero Boys are a hardcore punk quartet from Indianapolis, Indiana fronted by Paul Mahern. Other members include bassist Scott Kellogg, drummer Mark Cutsinger and guitarist Dave Lawson.
Their first release, Livin' in the '80s, was a 7" EP released by the band on their home-brew Z-Disc label.

Their debut full length album, Vicious Circle, was released in 1982 with its distinctive bright yellow cover on the local label Nimrod Records.
The intelligent, ambitious lyrics of "Vicious Circle" tackled such themes as social stratification, teen angst, and political corruption. Mahern's clear tenor voice emerged like a rapid-fire war cry, well-suited to the message and material.

In 2012 Vess Ruhtenberg and David Clough left the band just before a European tour. Scott Kellogg (bass) and Dave Lawson (guitar) are their replacements. In February of 2013 the new band released an EP titled "Pro Dirt." This was their first release in 20 years.

The Zero Boys' new LP, Monkey, will be released on May 20, 2014.

• MIXED BY JIM BARR (PORTISHEAD / GET THE BLESSING)

Esoteric Antenna is pleased to announce the release of the new studio album by HI FICTION SCIENCE. This Bristol based quintet formed in 2007 and feature Maria Charles (vocals, guitar), Jeff Green (bass), James McKeown (guitar), Matt Rich (keyboards), Aidan Searle (drums & percussion).

Their early gigs saw Hi Fiction Science perform motorik, Kosmiche influenced instrumental workouts with a nod to Cluster, Neu! and Can. With the addition of singer Maria Charles - formerly of Bristol experimentalists Fuzz Against Junk - the band took a direction that filters Acid-Folk, Art Rock, Post-Punk and Electronica. Their self-titled debut album was released independently on their own imprint ‘Negative Drive Records and they released a 7" single - a cover of the Third Ear Band's 'Fleance' on the Fruits de Mer label, (which promptly sold out of its initial pressing after the band received BBC 6 Music airplay from Stuart Maconie on the Freakzone and by Tom Robinson.

Hi Fiction Science now return with their sophomore, self-produced album ‘Curious Yellow’ - an album of original material that further defines the band’s unique sound and optimises the haunting and soaring vocal talents of Maria Charles.

The album was recorded in Bristol at State of Art Studio and mixed with Jim Barr (Get The Blessing / Portishead). "Curious Yellow” is one of the most sensory provoking and memorable albums to be released in 2014.

Hailing from London, new single 'Vacant Hearts' was produced by long time Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds cohort Jim Sclavunos. Opening with an acoustic guitar, it's a more textured, layered and dare we say it mature return from the group.

Yet that inherent darkness remains. Out on June 2nd, 'Vacant Hearts' is a piece of psychedelic noir, a driven, deranged piece of rock music which wants to stomp, snarl and kick the competition out of the way.

Not only will you want to turn on, tune in and drop out, Brev Fran Ederstorp will grab you, slam you into a chair and hold you there. It will stone you out of your brainpan. You don't have to be an aging hippie or a stoner to get wasted on these tunes. Brev Fran Ederstorp will absolutely blow your mind, no matter how straight-laced or counterculture you might be. Sideways cigarettes are not required to get the ultimate high while listening to this far out, grooved, vinyl release.

Brev Fran Ederstorp takes me back to the late '60s and early '70s, the days of Iron Butterfly, Vanilla Fudge and other bands of that flower child, hippie van, stoned-out era. I was there, playing the music, gigging, recording and digging the sounds of the time. I'm very intimate with those years and I strongly believe that if Tor Peders had been around back then, they would have owned some acreage at the top of the music scene, alongside Iron Butterfly, Vanilla Fudge and Strawberry Alarm Clock.
From the incredible, surfy, opening number, Aye Makami, to the powerful, but laid back, closing tune, L'esprit d'escaliere, the intensity and deepness ... hallmarks of 45 years ago ... never let up. Each cut on this eight-track instrumental album holds true to the era in all conceivable aspects. None of us here could pick a favorite song. None of us could find one that didn't belong. Every song is remarkable in every way. There are absolutely no B-sides on Brev Fran Ederstorp.
