I'm always going to give a shout out to Trouble in Mind Records ; they've got a really diverse catalogue, but typically it all dwells in the garage rock category. Today, this new jam dropped from Apache Dropout kicking out the rock n' roll jams with a psychedelic twist; I tend to think more along the lines of psycho-billy, at least when I'm listening to this song. It's got whimsy, choppy guitars and the album artwork has a hint of ghoulishness. If you dig this track, you can get [...]

"Candy Bar" picks up where the band left off on their well-received, self-titled debut ( free download ). The six-track release was built upon playful writing, heavy distortion and a confidence well-beyond a band that should still be reaching for an identity. Listen and download "Candy Bar" from Soundcloud . Bubblegum Graveyard is due to drop on August 8 via Chicago label Trouble in Mind . Connect with Apache Dropout [...]
