Continuing the series of posting albums and/or EPs as and when they are released (or usually a bit after!) as a follow up to the initial new tracks/singles posts posted on this blog. Sample the release via the You Tube track (s) then dive in to the full release.
Terraplana – Olhar Pra Trás
“The Brazilian shoegazers are back with their first new single since July 2021. Conversas is a blast of melodic and sometimes noisy shoegaze. ”
“Memórias is the band’s second single in as many months and is a noisy blend of shoegaze, post-rock and dare I say it, a bit of grunge influences too. Imagine if Lush were partial to a bit of Nirvana now and again, and you may get where I am coming from.”
Olhar Pra Trás is out via Balaclava Records.
The Hepburns – Only The Hours
“On The Parcels is the first single to be taken from Llanelli based The Hepburns forthcoming album Only The Hours. It’s a catchy indiepop song resplendent with a political swipe about making ends meet. The band describe it as a “sophisticated working class rant” and I must get my postie to give it a listen. I am sure he will agree with the words!”
Only The Hours is out now via Lavender Sweep Records.
Fun with Ether – A Dirty Kind of Clean
“Shoegazers Fun With Ether release their new album A Dirty Kind of Clean on March 01 2023. Spirit Kid is one of two tracks currently available for streaming, being a fuzz laden track with a rallying cry of “Oh, go party, yeah, go party”. It’s rousing stuff”
A Dirty Kind of Clean is out now. Get it from here.
