We’re taking a break, but before we go here is the King of CAPS, the queen of the unseen, the great unknown itself, Dem Hunger, whose cryptic crunk sounds like this and this and this and this, or “ICE CREAM MYSTERY TITTIES ALIEN BRAIN FLYIN THROUGH A SWIMMING POOL COVERED IN PISS” as alter ego [...]

We’re back a bit later than planned. Thanks to that volcano we’ve been trapped on a remote Portuguese island. While we were stranded the good dudes at Friendship Bracelet wrote about Branches, who happens to be from Portugal and is the musical equivalent of this Magic Eye picture. Here is an excerpt from his free [...]

Even though this song sounds like it was recorded with a broken dictaphone in a dustbin half a mile away from where Former Bullies are playing, their stellar songwriting still shines through. Also, great crematorium gag. Coming soon on Suffering Jukebox. Former Bullies – Planetarium [mp3]

Quetzalcoatl is a crazy-looking feathered serpent god worshipped since 400BCE who used his own blood, from a wound in his penis, to create a fifth-world mankind. Cool! Woom is a pop-dismantling Oakland duo that we are into in 2010 who have yet to produce (from their womb?) the next stage in human evolution. One of [...]

When Seal told us we were never going to survive unless we went a little crazy, he probably didn’t expect to be taken this literally.

We have put on three jumpers and two coats to stop our heart from freezing and this heartfelt holiday jam for VIBES. The remixer [...]

Our sun dance last week seemed to work because now it is 400 degrees outside and everyone is walking around 4% away from naked (don’t mention it). Even more welcome than summer’s eventual arrival is the return of Mystery Jets. Their new album Serotonin promises an abundance of fist-pumping, posi-pop anthems for your near-nude enjoyment. [...]

If you are a fan of sweaty junk-pop, psychedelics and zero bullshit beer showers then make your merry way down to The Lexington tonight for The Intelligence, Dignan Porch and Rent Boys, each of whom specialise in at least one of these disciplines. Also, cool flyer. The Intelligence – Moody Tower [mp3] Dignan Porch – [...]

We have a lot to thank Wild Nothing for. This song from his beautiful debut album reminds us of Tangerine Dream which in turn made us think about trains and 80s Rebecca De Mornay and we have continued to do that for most of the morning. Then he picked one of our favourite Isley Brothers’ [...]
