Part 5 and some more belters here…
A taster for album number two from Horsegirl, an early Christmas treat from Sunturns, plus songs from Upturned Boats, Tombstones in Their Eyes, Ron Briskin and Dead Pony.
Horsegirl – 2468
Ahead of the release of their second album Phonetics On and On comes the single 2468, an uncomplicated laidback and sprawling folky slacker rock tune.
Upturned Boats – Car Park Sadness
The first of two tunes in the November Round Up for Upturned Boats with this heart-rending ballad Car Park Sadness, an atmospheric slow burn of an intro unveiling an affecting vocal that will appeal to fans of King Creosote and wojtek the bear.
Dead Pony – Everything Burns
A barnstorming hook-laden tune that is a whole load of fun to listen to with its little twists and turns crunching riffs and and almost panto-like vocal inserts and old skool Batman reference…
Ron Briskin – Reach Out
Reach Out is an infectious earworm that will have your toes tapping and head nodding along to the irresistible rhythm and has a refrain that sits somewhere between The Strokes and The Libertines.
Sunturns – Crash Course Christmas
It is nearly that time of year again, so I have to feature this beauty by Oslo “Christmas Supergroup” Sunturns from their latest collection of Christmas songs, Christmas III.
Tombstones in Their Eyes – In Your Eyes
The hypnotic dark pulsating throb of In Your Eyes is the opening track from Los Angeles psych-rock/shoegazers Tombstones in Their Eyes latest album Asylum Harbour.
