SCATTERED ASHES: Esther
Greyish shades and sharp tones in a post-punk dark piece can make countless friends dance or dig without holding back. Not just those named Esther. SCATTERED ASHES – Esther
NEW STARTS, DARREN HAYMAN: Under The Striplights
Fresh spiky pop that fuses with lonely guitar rock and a desire for simplistic love, but most of all they just want us to like them, and we do. NEW STARTS, DARREN HAYMAN – Under The Striplights
WALT DISCO: Jocelyn
In a peculiar and special piece with a dreamlike conversation about things often kept hidden inside, I get pleasantly enamored and put the player on repeat. WALT DISCO – Jocelyn
MISTER STRANGE: III EP
Like a noisy noise rock banger with frenetic drums and punk attitude or something like that or, uh, you can figure it out yourself but it’s awesome. MISTER STRANGE: Figure It Out
KEE AVIL: Spine
With an almost whispering voice in a fragile played piece where every part seems to be on a breaking point that makes me remember a darkness I embrace. KEE AVIL: Remember Me
THE CITY GATES: Lapidation
In rhythmic darkness I’m caught as in a recurring loop I have a hard time getting out of, which doesn’t matter to me as the atmosphere and song suit me perfectly. THE CITY GATES – Lapidation
SERIAL CHILLER: Handsome Dad
Wonderful punk might be too neat for some, but if you like everyday realistic texts with humor and a nice twist, this is for you provided you can afford it. SERIAL CHILLER – Handsome Dad
NO MAN’S VALLEY: Chrononoaut Cocktailbar/Flight Of The Sloths
Love-filled song in an almost fairground dark piece that hits me with dramatic precision at the dead end I had wandered into, but now I ended up right. NO MAN’S VALLEY: Love
BILLIAM: Where Is Jackson Reid Briggs?
Intense and energetic punk that with a frantic search tries to involve me in the search but I’m too busy digging their fantastic music. BILLIAM – Where Is Jackson Reid Briggs?
THE NIGHT TIMES: I’m Leaving You
A real garage rock banger as it used to sound and this one should not be missed for anything in the world. Especially not at night. If you do, I’ll leave you. THE NIGHT TIMES – I’m Leaving You
