New Releases

http://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2014/07/vashti-bunyan-composes-solo-collaborates-with-deve.html wrote:Freak-folk icon Vashti Bunyan dives into unique depths for her forthcoming album, a final venture that she says is her most innovative. Heart Leap, as Bunyan explained to Brooklyn Vegan, was a way for her “finally to learn a way that would enable me to record the music that is in my head, by myself.”

Though Bunyan is still bringing in collaborators for this record, including the likes of Devendra Banhart, this personal orchestration seems a tight thread in the total tapestry.

“I neither read nor write music, nor can I play piano with more than one hand at a time, but I have loved being able to work it all out for myself and make it sound the way I wanted,” Bunyan says. “I’ve built these songs over years. The album wouldn’t have happened any other way.”

Heartleap is slated for release via Fatcat on Oct. 6 in Europe, and via DiCristina records on Oct. 7 in North America

http://thefrenchrevebchurch.wordpress.com/artists/the-blondis-salvation/ wrote:Originally made of the constant psychedelic ideology by its two tangled visions. The imperturbable golden wires of the puritan singer, and the turbulent medieval tunes of the guitarist.
They progressively evolved into their final relic, by the immolation of a bassist pulling his strength from his Samson’s hair, and some "GIRLS on DRUMs".
The Blondi’s Salvation is part of the new European post-psychedelic rock scene, and is trying to unify it even more through the French Reverb Church.
On their Farfisa-Guantuesque way, they reuse mystical sounds emerging from a time they do not want to be forgotten, the time of Vintage Vox guitars and the arrival of oriental sounds. In constant evolution and perpetual research of their own psychedelic sounds and vibes, the band has not even started the first of its nine cat’s lives.
The Blondi’s Salvation – with a bit of innocence – tries to set back the soul of a youth lost in a music industry manipulated by greedy businessman, just where it belongs. And "this salvation comes with Loud guitars, steady beats, far-out Farfisa flourishes, all types of drones instruments, and reverb, reverb, reverb, reverb…

http://blackpistolfire.com/#about wrote:Black Pistol Fire is a Canadian Rock and Roll duo that split’s time between Toronto, Ontario and Austin, Texas. Their wild and energetic rock-and-roll sound has been described as a mix of classic southern rock and garage punk, garnering comparisons to early Kings of Leon, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The White Stripes, and Clutch. It's clear that the band's sound spans many different eras and subgenres, relying on a classic rock and roll sound that has been updated for our modern times. Black Pistol Fire features Kevin McKeown on Guitar/Lead Vocals and Eric Owen on Drums. The two have been friends since kindergarten and began playing music together when they discovered a shared passion for rock and roll music in high school.

https://www.musicglue.com/the-wytches/about/ wrote:Formed in Brighton in 2011, The Wytches comprises Kristian Bell (vocals, guitar), Dan Rumsey (bass, vocals) and Gianni Honey (drums). Led by Bell’s luminous lyricism, feral delivery and overdriven, surf-like guitar bends, the trio create a sound that is at once raucous and unruly, and yet decorated with semi-automatic poetry and authentic emotional clout.
Having left Peterborough after feeling stifled by their hometown’s inward-looking hardcore scene, Bell and Honey relocated to Brighton in the autumn of 2011, applying to the city’s university before enlisting Bournemouth-raised Rumsey on bass – the sole applicant of an advert placed on campus. From the outset promoting their own shows in the city, The Wytches have never lost the DIY spirit of their hardcore origins: arranging their own tours; printing flyers; pressing their first single, ‘Digsaw’; inviting friend of the band Samuel Gull to create their artwork; and producing their own videos – all in spite of squeezed funds. It is this relentlessness and resilience that has led to The Wytches headlining countless shows across the UK and Europe to date, acting as chief support to Blood Red Shoes, The Cribs, Drenge, METZ, Japandroids, amongst others. In 2013 the band released a number of singles and EPs on London’s Hate Hate Hate Records (‘Beehive Queen’, Thunder Lizard Revisited EP, ‘Robe for Juda’), before attracting the attention of Heavenly Recordings in the UK and Partisan Records in the USA, who will release their debut album, Annabel Dream Reader, in Summer 2014.

http://svartrecords.bandcamp.com/album/illusory-blues wrote:MESSENGER (UK) is a musical troupe from London formed in the spring of 2012 by Khaled Lowe and Barnaby Maddick. They booked a session with producer Jaime Gomez Arellano at Orgone Studios that gave birth to their debut album, Illusory Blues: a cosmic ode to the forces of nature and the inevitable cycle of life. To cite musical influences would be futile. The musicians had made their names with bands in scenes as far apart as hardcore punk, black metal, and ambient music. Tonally, one might recall finding oneself in the same "space" occupied by other architects of sound such as Ulver, The Beatles, Swans, or Pink Floyd. But the stream of sound that emanates from the source of Illusory Blues is a heaving mass of organic richness, brimmed with intricate sounds that acknowledge the original fathers of experimentation but look forward in creating something new and unique. They dwell equally in the earthly realm of folk music and in the celestial void of progressive psychedelia, but have chanced upon a sound and an experience that sounds like no other. Rounded off by Daniel Knight and James Leach, the lineup of MESSENGER is now complete, but the journey has just begun.

The Coral set to release eight year old album ‘Curse Of Love’

The Coral have revealed they are planning to release a ‘new’ LP in the coming weeks titled ‘Curse Of Love’

The news was announced today via the band’s Twitter feed with front-man James Skelly later confirming that ‘Curse Of Love’ is not a new LP as such,  as the tracks were recorded eight years ago.

‘Curse Of Love’ will be their first release since their 2010 LP ‘Butterfly House‘ and will feature newly aired track ‘Wrapped In Blue’, which was debuted on BBC Radio 6 Music last Sunday (August 24)

http://backseatmafia.com/2014/01/28/album-review-hello-griefbirds-by-the-shine-brothers-cardinal-fuzz/ wrote:There is no doubt in my mind that Hello Griefbirds! is strongly influenced by the Nuggets bands of the 60s and the proto-punk of the early 70s, and with it The Shine Brothers have produced an album that feels raw and vital. It is a record which seems to gradually build in intensity, becoming deeper as you explore the dark recesses of this record, and perhaps as you begin to peel back the layers you get to see Stooges and Velvet Underground influences too. The final track, When Wendy Burns, in particular, is a eight minute jam which is disturbing both lyrically and musically – especially when the band channel Patti Smith’s Gloria at one point. When you then cast your mind back to the lighter poppier feel of the early tracks, such as Creation with it’s Revolver era Beatles sunshine pop and Every Brothers influence, to see the journey you have been taken on.

http://www.roughtrade.com/albums/86754 wrote:The wait is finally over. The Wicked Whispers debut album 'Maps of the Mystic' arrives on Electone Records. With over 3 years in the making following 3 early limited edition vinyl releases on Electone Records, The Wicked Whispers have become one of the UKs most exciting new British bands in the current flourishing psychedelic climate and are finally set to deliver their debut long player. The album brings together 11 new tracks from The Wicked Whispers exploring every side of Mike Murphy's lucid songwriting and the bands synchronization wrapped up inside 45 minutes of angelic protectionism. Produced by Mike Murphy, the album walks us through some of the most beautiful and forward thinking songs to be heard in some time which deliver an essential timeless quality and sets an important psychedelic milestone.

Two cranked up Fender Bassman amps, two Big-muff pedals on full and aggressive powerhouse drums make up River of Snakes sonic core. This fuzz-demented three piece have been tearing apart stages and splintering ears for over two years now in their hometown of Melbourne and abroad. This is a band that thrives on raw spirit and DIY attitude.

http://deathblues.com/publications/non-fiction-lp/ wrote:
Death Blues is a multi-disiplinary project by Jon Mueller that addresses the inevitability of death as impetus to become fully present in each moment. “Non-fiction” is the third musical installment in the larger Death Blues project, and the first for SIGE Records.

“Non-fiction” opens with a a single and insistent pulse, the foundation upon which two side-long pieces that comprise the album are built. Serving as a thematic anchor, the rhythmic cycles propelling the compositions are the albums lifesblood – ceaselessly active, blossoming in permutated variations through drumkit, various percussion, guitars, and voice. Movements contract and expand, sparsely rendered themes increase in density reaching maximum satura- tion, all are infused with a sense of spirited determination.

“With Death Blues blaring on your speakers at the appropriate volume, Mueller foists his physical presence into your airspace, blanketing you with a litany of dry vocalizations and bruising beats that sketch out a black-and-white still image of a man working himself down into the grave, or working himself up into transcendence.”

(It should be no surprise the band has released stuff on Siltbreeze.) Their new album, Decorative Feeding, is nine amphetamine punches of despondent, punk n' roll like "Piece of Piss" and "I'm a Skull." Stream their evocatively titled "Pump the Bimbo" below.
