To say that UK band IS TROPICAL have been quite busy lately would be an understatement. They've just returned from their Mongolian tour with a tour documentary to follow, released their new album titled I'm Leaving just today and are about to set off on a European tour! The dance-rock group's second album is jam packed with both respected music and names. Produced by Luke Smith ( Foals , Depeche Mode ), I'm Leaving features a list of songs that are quite personal to the band and their environment. 'Lovers' Cave' for instance, [...]
Back in his native Australia Matt Corby’s last EP, 2011′s Into The Flame , went quadruple platinum, not bad for a 23-year-old who finished second on Australian Idol in 2007. Boasting model looks, a voice that could melt butter and being backed by the ever-wonderful people at Communion we’re gonna state the obvious and say the future looks incredibly bright for Mr Corby over here on these shores. After a plethora of EPs throughout the last few years, it would appear that Corby is finally knuckling down on a proper debut album. Today he releases [...]
![Dirty Beaches – Drifters/Love Is The Devil [Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4963306_lg.jpg)
Dirty Beaches is one of my favorite musicians at the moment. I don't think Alex will need my approval of positivity and Asian solidarity but I am going to give it to him anyways. Dirty Beaches has been on a wild ride since the critical acclaim and success from Badlands which came out in 2011. Now he will do something ambitious which the double album "Drifters/Love Is The Devil" which drops on May 21st through Zoo Music. Total of 16 tracks. Drifters with 8 tracks and Love Is The Devil with 8 [...]
Tesla Boy , lo mejor que ha parido Rusia desde el Vodka , presentan hoy martes su nuevo álbum " The Universe Made Of Darkness " a través de su propio sello Gorby . Tras su flamante álbum debut " Moder Thrills " (2010), con el que conquistaron a crítica y público gracias a unos atractivos tracks influenciados por el synth pop y disco pop de melodías 80´s, el trío con sede en [...]
Alright The Captain | Conversational Skills for the Socially Anxious Words by Mark Robinson The superbly titled (and appropriately named) new EP/album/mathrockart collage by Derby trio Alright the Captain is nothing short of ridiculous. Conversational Skills for the Socially Anxious is a perfect encapsulation of the band’s relentless touring schedule, with the album recorded live to give an accurate representation of the ferocious sound. Let’s get the cliché’s done and dusted; if you enjoy Primus/Oceansize or even Rush, you will [...]
"Not enough has emerged to be able to pinpoint whether MS MR are the real deal or predictable bullshit. One thing’s for sure though, they’re pretty MOR..." MS MR | Secondhand Rapture The elusive MS MR are part of the latest gloom brigade to break out from the waiting room of future talent, and as with most hyped-up fledging acts they have been charged with the over-familiar fate of ‘saving pop’. Their entry into the musicsphere was in the same vein as Lana Del Rey; opting not to release too much information too early on, letting [...]

We don’t need to go to Reykjavik to experience the atmosphere of Icelandic music since Alec Snook, aka Zoon van snooK, decided to bring us a piece of Iceland into our homes with his new album. - By Daniela Patrizi

By Nicko Ruddock May 21, 2013 After 10 years of hiding away under what we can only assume was a rock, Indie folk ensemble The Baptist Generals are back with a new album; Jackleg Devotional to the Heart is a beautiful collection of acoustic numbers which step outside the boundaries of contemporary pop music. By lacking the usual fear that they might 'do something wrong' The Baptist Generals have allowed their music to move up to a higher plateau above the norm. The entire album boasts an organic, [...]
One Mile An Hour is another remarkable band who sought Muruch out personally. They built their own ocean-view studio to record their brilliant, self-produced, self-titled debut album, which they accurately call a "complex, introverted outsider-folk record." The first thing I ... Continue reading
I never listen to new bands and hope they were ‘the next big thing’ but I kind of feel this about these gents. Champagne Holocaust feels like the real deal and with the mainstream music scene is as crushingly boring as it’s ever been, there has been no better time for a genuinely nasty band to come and give the mainstream a hard kick in its deserving arse!

Imagine you're in a French band and you're in Brooklyn recording your next album and then Hurricane Sandy hits and you lose everything. Finishing a album this awesome shows a lot of willpower. - By Sander van den Driesche
Amtrac remixes Toyboy & Robin ‘Jaded’ for a track that’s pure s$x. Deep house with twisted vocals and an addictive groove. Buy it here. Surfing Leons and rapper Miss Eaves track ‘Banga’ mixes hip hop with electro and then on top of that gets a remix treatment from Sinden who adds in industrial sounding drums and gives it a bass booty shakin’ re-workin’. Out now on Forma.T Records . The latest track from MYNDST8 goes deep with a hint of [...]
There are many facets to The Dillinger Escape Plan sound, there’s a complexity to the songs that requires attention. Give them your attention and be rewarded. - By Geoff Topley
Daft Punk | Random Access Memories Words by Ron Jurewicz In April, an emo band called Fall Out Boy came out of a five year hiatus to save rock and roll. The world still isn’t quite sure how to thank them, but I think an absurd, ironic punishment along the lines of tying their hands to their legs, pushing a boulder down a hill towards their loved ones and saying ‘Now Fall Out Boy, save rock, and roll’, should do nicely. When Daft Punk [...]
Mark Lanegan & Duke Garwood - 'Black Pudding' (UK Release: 13 May '13) // Words: Simon Opie Mark Lanegan may well be the hardest working man in show business since the new millennium dawned, which isn’t bad considering that when he appeared with Queens Of The Stone Age back at the turn of the century, it was rumoured that he couldn’t manage to sing more than a handful of songs per night. Even so, that incarnation of QOTSA [...]
By Tom Bolton May 21, 2013. A new album from The Fall is an event anticipated, expected even, by many. When Mark E. Smith finally stops making records, entirely against his will of course, we will feel his absence much more keenly than that of Margaret Thatcher or Alex Ferguson. He may have outlasted both, but its evolution that has kept him going for so long. The Fall’s sound is always unmistakable but never predictable. Having ridden out a legendary amount of [...]
[ Idle Hands ] Coming from a multicultural melting pot of Bristolian dance culture, house enthusiasts Outboxx have established themselves in short order, maturely brewing their easily recognizable sound. Equipped with rhythmic sensibility of Jacob Martin (alias Hodge) and Matthew Lambert's keyboard skills, they've succeeded in forming an aesthetic of their own, combining big, warm bass with lush, synthesized melodies to create strangely familiar [...]
