The Lees of Memory - The Blinding White Of Nothing At All If you don’t recall, The Lees of Memory is John Davis & Brandon Fisher from Superdrag along with Nick Slack from SLACK. They make a unique blend of pop, psych and shoegaze. For a refresher, just listen to Unnecessary Evil. Currently, they are rounding […]
Volume 88 One would think that Summer would signal a lighter load of releases but the opposite seems to be the case as lots of great, bigger name, albums are coming down the pipe. This Volume of the podcast covers a handful of the larger titles and makes sure to mix in a few new-comers […]

Goddamnit there’s something refreshing about Unbridled Big Riff Rock. From the grotesquely illustrated album art (fresh out of medieval fantasy) to the irresistible driving nature of the music, Hogan’s Goat seems to have it figured out. There’s tones of ZZ Top and early Queens of the Stone Age pulsating through this and I’m looking forward […]

My initial reaction to the opening of Kid Freud’s EP American Boy was one of brow furrowing hesitation. The title track, “American Boyâ€, sounds like a snotty British b-side channeled through the Jack White filter. But I stayed the course, as one song does not make a band – even if it IS the title track. Fortunately, […]
Cash yr Donut Early by Deluxin' According to the liner notes, the second album from Deluxin’ was recorded in 2012 and 2013 at Reel Love Recordings but was just released in 2017. What happened in the years between is a mystery but the album, Cash yr Donut Early, is now available. It’s a loose and […]
Absolutely LOVE this new video from Cloudmouth featuring the two members of the band alternating between a mysterious and ominious river discovery and ridiculous antics inside the back of a spruced up U-Haul truck. Any video that features someone blindfolded and swinging at an imaginary pinata is a total winner in my book but these […]
