The Post Last Bandcamp Friday Saturday Mix
Blue Tomorrows, who feature Sarah Nienaber from Candace in their line up, have released a new single and it’s their first in almost a year. Violet Shine mixes psychedelia and dream pop with the result sounding a bit like a cross between Spacemen 3 and Stereolab. Brighton’s Dreams of Empire have released an acoustic cover … Continue reading
The Sunday Session
The sun has gone in and it’s p*ssing it down in London Town. Time to get stuck into more tunes resting on top of my digital back pile. Fowl Science hail from Toronto and, judging by the lack of anything else listed, The Flowering Eye is their debut release. The song is a catchy mix … Continue reading
The Black Heart Death Cult – Sonic Dhoom
Sonic Dhoom is the first new material we have heard from Melbourne’s The Black Heart Death Cult since their debut album early last year. It’s fine piece of Asian inspired psychedelic done featuring some wonderful sitar work. I am pretty sure it’s a nod to Pete Kember. Flip side It’s Getting Heavy flirts with religion, … Continue reading
VIM – Waiting EP
I have been Waiting er looking forward to this EP since the title track dropped last December. The first four tracks here are excellent examples of shimmering and ethereal dream pop. The songs swirl like no tomorrow and closing ones eyes they present hazy, shady and mottled imagery. The female vocals are softened, calming and … Continue reading
Something For The Weekend? Three Psychedelia
This weeks pack of three features three psychedelic inspired releases. Les Big Byrd – Snö-Golem The forthcoming single from Stockholm’s Les Big Byrd mixes drone, krautrock and of course a dusting of psychedelia. It’s a heavy pounding track dominated by the droning guitars and percussion. It’s backed by Karlstadögon and will be released by PNKSLM … Continue reading
The Leaf Library – Hissing Waves
I enjoyed the Monument Series released earlier this year which was the side project works of members of The Leaf Library. Now the band will be releasing their new and second album, entitled The World Is A Bell, next month. Hissing Waves is the first track to be lifted from the album and it’s a … Continue reading
Something For The Weekend? Three Psychedelic Tinged Shoegazers
This weeks pack of three features three bands that mix psychedelia with shoegaze. Star Glows – Spiderland Spiderland is taken from the band’s forthcoming album Stargaze Rock ‘n’ Roll. It’s dreamy, spacey and is one hell of a head nodding tune. The aforementioned album is out later this month in vinyl and digital formats. Pre-order … Continue reading
Anajunno – Fuegoinvierno
It’s turning into an Argentinian themed weekend! Anajunno hail from Santa Fe, Argentina and Fuegoinvierno, which translates as Winterfire, is the follow-up to 2017s self titled debut. Anajunno’s music is primarily dreampop, but they also delve into other spheres. For example Julia Knows flirts with psychedelic pop whilst the instrumental Generador de pruebas is an … Continue reading
Charivari – Aphotic
Charivari are a band from Bath, UK and Aphotic is their first release. Well on Bandcamp anyway! It’s noisy shoegaze that has plenty of Krautrock and drone influences woven into the song. The track title means the “deep zone of an ocean or lake receiving too little light to permit photosynthesis” but there is room … Continue reading
Boogie Board – Rippers Only
Fuzzy, trippy, spacey, droney and krautrock-y – okay I cannot think of any other terms to describe this music ending in y! There are four songs here resulting in a short but enjoyable romp. If Can were a 1960’s garage band they may have ended up sounding something like this. Facebook
