First Love, Last Rites: Young Girl

First Love, Last Rites: Young Girl Today's featured single is taken from FLLR's second album "WASTED HEARTS", releasing in the UK and IRE on Monday 15th April. The label lists one influence of the Swedish group as Swervedriver, although likely more prevalent on the 'noisier' first release.

Tom Slatter: Three Rows of Teeth

Tom Slatter: Three Rows of Teeth "Tom Slatter is a singer-songwriter from London who writes steampunk and sci-fi inspired prog-rock songs. Described by the Steampunk Chronicle as ‘an experiment too far’, his music lies somewhere between Radiohead, early Genesis and Nick Cave. In March 2013, Tom released his third solo album, Three Rows of Teeth. The new CD contains songs about such clichéd subjects as fake spiritualists, murder, time travel, replacing one’s body parts with mechanical alternatives and flying an airship into a cloud full of birds with too many teeth. There is also mention of ravenous church steeples." [Bio] [...]

The Racer: Settle

The Racer: Settle The Racer, an indie rock quintet out of Monroe, NY is influenced by the frequent commutes to NYC, tour van rides and road trips a group of bandmates inevitably experiences. “We usually picture driving to the music we make,” says lead singer Pete Marotta. “Maybe because most people in our area commute over an hour to NYC on a daily basis.” The music this band of friends makes does have a feeling of movement, especially their latest album, Passengers. With this release, out May 14th, The Racer takes the transportation motif to the next level. [...]

Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys: Devil’s in the Details

Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys: Devil’s in the Details Walter Sickert & The ARmy of BRoken TOys are the spinners of a charming, demented fairy tale that gathers new characters all the time. At the heart of the colorful fantasy is Walter Sickert, the writer, ringleader and conjurer. The name of the band came to Walter in a dream. He had been living in a haunted barn in the woods of New Hampshire and would often record very late at night. During one of these sessions on a mid-winter’s eve, he fell asleep curled under a pile of broken porcelain dolls. The dolls kept him warm [...]
