Blackstrap - Pass this by

Aug 25, 2011, 5:00pm It's a trap!
The first taste of anything new from Blackstrap in a loooong time. Sounds very baggy, ie not appealing to me at all.

Tee Pee Records - Rock Music Where Have You Been?

Apr 8, 2009, 12:39pm Pampelmoose
I have long lamented in these electronic pages the lack of good old fashioned powerful rock music. I have missed the anti-star rock shredding of Mudhoney, Dinosaur Jr., The Breeders, early Nirvana, even the first Smashing Pumpkins album, Gish. During the mid-90's when rock went to hell in a hand basket courtesy of idiots like [...]

Lounge Act Recap - Blackstrap

Oct 31, 2008, 1:05pm The Futurist
Lounge Act Recap - Blackstrap Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, Blackstrap made their US radio debut in our Lounge with a set of songs from their second full-length Steal My Horses and Run . The five-piece were visiting the States for only the second time, with this performance coming in the midst of their first string of extended dates beyond the CMJ Music Marathon in New York. Blackstrap plays an amped up blend of hooky, melodic shoegazing that has earned comparisons to Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Primal Scream, and Serena-Maneesh. Our engineer Brian Niesz deserves major props for perfectly capturing the [...]

Blackstrap, Stereolab, Echo & the Bunnymen, Glasvegas and more in this Week in Indie

Blackstrap, Stereolab, Echo & the Bunnymen, Glasvegas and more in this Week in Indie by Bill Pearis DOWNLOAD: Blackstrap - Repulsion (MP3) The biggest event of the week, at least in some circles, is Echo & the Bunnymen 's show at Radio City Music Hall on Wednesday (10/1) where they will be playing their classic 1984 album, Ocean Rain , in full with a 16 piece orchestra. The idea of hearing "The Killing Moon," "Silver" and the gorgeous title track in their proper string-swept glory is [...]

Blackstrap

Jul 17, 2008, 1:36pm Alternapop
Blackstrap "Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, Blackstrap is one of Europe's most exciting new bands. They play blissful rock and roll drenched in the warm rays of fuzzed out guitars. Their Tee Pee Records debut "Steal My Horses and Run" conjures up a lush atmosphere that is equal parts hypnotic rock, dream pop, and shoegaze. These sonic landscapes stretch over twelve tracks, drawing upon the inspirations of genre pioneers Spiritualized, Primal Scream, and The Jesus and Mary Chain. Formed in 2001 by primary songwriters Jonatan Westh and Maria Lindén, Blackstrap delivered their debut album "Ghost Children" in 2003. The [...]

Blackstrap - Steal My Horses and Run

Jun 1, 2008, 6:56pm Inflight At Night
Blackstrap - Steal My Horses and Run Initially released in Europe in October 2006, Blackstrap 's second full length, Steal My Horses and Run , is finally seeing it's official release in the U.S. via New York's Tee Pee Records . At first pass it would be easy to write off Steal My Horses and Run as just another retread of the JAMC and My Bloody Valentine catalogs, that is if it weren't so well executed and/or if you weren't able to make to the last quarter of the album where the band really opens things up with some more [...]

Blackstrap

May 29, 2008, 7:56am Instrumental Analysis
Blackstrap This post has been in draft for weeks, because I couldn't decide which song I liked best. I'm sure that you would expect this sort of thing to happen frequently, but it really doesn't. Blackstrap 's Steal My Horses and Run ( Buy ) was released on May 20 and it is much more the exception, than the rule. If you like your music a little shoegaze, a little psychedelic and a lot fuzzy, you'll enjoy this. This is an album that is best digested whole. mp3 : Winning Speech

The Daily Graboid

The Daily Graboid The Graboid is back once again this week, and thankfully, on it's regularly scheduled day of the week. Lots of great albums this week including new releases from The Wedding Present , Mates of State , French Kicks , and Islands . I checked out a few tracks from Scarlett Johansson's much publicized album of Tom Waits covers, and damn...this is not good at all. Not that i've been hearing a lot of good press in regards to it in the first place, but I still wanted to see [...]

Annihilation Time - Annihilate (Live At WCC 7/10/06)
There are two new releases that we can strongly recommend tomorrow. Both are from Tee Pee Records and neither are the label's usual fare. Fans of garage rock, Motörhead , and Zeke will dig Annihilation Time 's Tales of the Ancient Age . It's a rawker. And on the other end of the spectrum is Stockholm, Sweden's Blackstrap , who play an endearing atmospheric shoegazey rock fit for fans of My Bloody Valentine and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club .

"The Open Road" and "Repulsion" by Blackstrap

May 19, 2008, 12:51pm I Rock Cleveland
"The Open Road" and "Repulsion" by Blackstrap It only takes a cursory listen to verify Blackstrap's membership in The My Black Rebel Bloody Jesus and Mary Motorcycle Chain Valentine Club. At times you'll have them pegged as My Bloody Valentine, other times the Jesus and Mary Chain, or Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. From the detached cool of their vocals, to the their affinity for the swirling sonics favored by the shoegazing sect, these Swedes proudly rock the noise of their idols on their latest release, Steal My Horses and Run. There's a temptation to dismiss this band as nothing more than a cover band capable [...]

Review: Blackstrap - Steal My Horses And Run

May 18, 2008, 12:54pm Can You See the Sunset
Blackstrap is a band from Stockholm, Sweden that plays atmospherically fuzzed out rock music that sounds a lot like My Bloody Black Rebel Primal Scream Spiritualized Mary Chain Division. (Okay I sorta borrowed that description, but it is a pretty damn good one.) So, yeah, you know what Blackstrap's influences are right off the bat and while I like Serena Maneesh more, they are from Oslo not Stockholm so its like comparing apples to oranges, right? Steal My Horses And Run is due out here in the US of A on May 20th courtesy [...]

New Shoegaze - Blackstrap

Apr 21, 2008, 1:55pm Quarterlifeparty
Blackstrap live
The influence of shoegaze on new indie-rock continues with Blackstrap out of Stockholm, Sweden. They offer up alternating male and female vocals. The male vocals definitely sounding like Jesus and Mary Chain and the female vocals reminiscent of the Raveonnettes. They pull the whole shoegaze sound off nicely adding a good pop-sensibility to it. There are a lot of other songs that remind me a little bit of West Indian Girl, but despite all the influences they've got their own sound going. It's fuzzy, warm, heavy and [...]

Bands To Watch: Blackstrap

Apr 14, 2008, 1:22pm Rock Sellout
Bands To Watch: Blackstrap Tee Pee Records tend to sign mostly hard rock and metal bands, which is really not my thing. Sweden's Blackstrap show a softer side to their rooster though, their music being described as as "blissful rock and roll drenched in the warm rays of fuzzed out guitars" in the press release, which also draws comparisons to bands like Spiritualized, Primal Scream, and The Jesus and Mary Chain. The band formed in 2001 and released their first album, "Ghost Children" two years later which they are now about to follow up with "Steal My [...]
