New Entry: Spike Hellis Reveal New Single "Mouth"
The song is taken from their their forthcoming self-titled debut album, which will be available on April 1st through their own imprint Over-Pop. Pre-order your copy here.
Spike Hellis delivers from every angle. Primed for the after-hours warehouse dungeon, they use heavy amounts of fog and strobes timed perfectly to their live set. Perhaps you will feel threatened or slightly disoriented. Nonetheless, you will be thrust into their environment. While still in their infancy, they’ve managed to turn heads as they cut their teeth in the LA underground. Blasting their bleak outlook and spreading their gospel of disenchantment and sarcasm, Spike Hellis announces their arrival.

UPDATE 14/02/2022: "Meadow" is our new Single of the Week!
The record’s notion is made entirely out of prospects dealing with grief, loss, love, and the aching acceptance of it all. As being the group’s first full length, consider these songs as personal introductions to new ends, and old beginnings. “Underneath, Beside Me” holds the subject of dreamy post punk, with an unrecognizable face."

“The track was written during the lockdown period when everything looked so uncertain and scary … We were listening to a lot of music from bands as ‘Japan’ and ‘Visage’, talking about the “New Romantics” era, thinking of what will come after this new reality we’re living in. And so “New Era” came as a result of all the relationships that were reconsidered the last two years, to show the importance of human touch and what really actually matters.” - Boys’ Shorts

Spacey Jane Announce Debut LP 'Sunlight', Stream "Sitting Up"
The follow-up to 2020's debut Sunlight, first came to life at the start of the lockdowns in 2020, it takes its title from the working title of Wilco’s seminal album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot – Jeff Tweedy himself writing to the band with his blessing to borrow the phrase - and will be out on June 10 via AWAL. Pre-order your copy here.
Lead singer Caleb Harper talks through the themes of Here Comes Everybody. “Our first record (Sunlight) discussed personal experiences of mine and it was a blessing to see how many people related to those stories. I want this record to be for youth persevering and thriving emotionally under the weight of our generational burden made up of climate change, COVID etc. Feeling like you have the responsibility of your entire future on your shoulders without any say in what happens creates anxiety and uncertainty. I think COVID took away the sense of unity that gives young people assurances in such times. I know music isn’t a replacement for taking control and galvanizing positive change, but I hope this record can soundtrack some of those moments in people’s lives.”
New Single ‘Sitting Up’ encapsulates that Spacey Jane sound: crisp, crystalline guitars, indelible pop melodies and a dash of melancholia that seeps through every pore of the track. Caleb’s vocals are vulnerable and yearning as he sings about events close to his heart: " I wrote this about the way I was feeling and behaving when I was in my final semester of uni before dropping out. I left quite unceremoniously by not showing up to any of my final exams or handing in final assessments. I had no idea who I was, I was seriously depressed and completely spinning out. I felt like I’d created this terrible façade of myself for all of these people that I knew and that really I hadn’t been myself around someone or been truthful about my feelings in years. I didn’t care about my life or what I was doing to my body, I thought I was going to end up dead if I didn’t fix something. I felt like I was the only one going through those feelings and even though that wasn’t true, it made me feel so alone."

Watch: KOMFORTRAUSCHEN Share New Single/Video "Reload"
The song is out today (February 11) and is taken from their forthcoming new album, out soon via Springstoff. Get it here.
The band creates the powerful sound of a techno DJ set in their very own analogue fashion with traditional instruments, filtered through an impressive array of pedals and effects. Imagine a punk band trapped inside a drum computer, the Prodigy being a Berghain resident, Richie Hawtin meets Rammstein. The pure ecstasy and machine accuracy of techno enriched with the fresh energy and playfulness of a live band. Since the band was formed in 2014, Komfortrauschen have played regularly in famous German clubs like Sisyphos, Kantine am Berghain and Kater Blau as well as all over Europe and beyond. Now they're about to hit the stages worldwide!

New Entry: STOCKSNSKINS Reveal New Single "Coming Down"
The song is taken from their new EP 'Long Shadows', out soon through Analogue Trash. Get it here.
Though it may feel like it at times, life didn’t stop in March 2020 – instead, for many of us, it sparked changes great and small in how we live, work, and view the world around us. For tunesmiths and agitproppers STOCKSNSKINS, physical distance and personal growth added a fresh dimension to their music – culminating in their new EP and lead single Coming Down.
Says Rich, “The songs were written, arranged, and recorded at home, not in a studio. The latter especially was a real departure for us in terms of how we created music. Ade’s vocals were often done in one take on Long Shadows. We felt that helped capture much of the flow of his vocal style and passion in his lyrics and delivery. The EP is more bass-led and features ad-libs from Ade as well as an appearance from my son Wilf on guitar – again something of a change from our previous creative process.”
Ade describes the tracks as having “darker themes inspired by darker times, but then we were never very likely to write a pop song! They’re full of discontent and highlight our dissatisfaction with the clowns who rule us. The beat goes on, but increasingly, it’s breaking down more and more, and occasionally exploding.”
