Volume 74

Download MP3Stream Podcast Fun fact, the release of Volume 74 of the podcast coincides with the day of my birth. This is my gift to you. Okay, it’s actually 30+ minutes of Nashville musicians collective gifts to you because it wouldn’t exist without them. The following is culled from very recent releases or slightly upcoming […]

The Dead Deads “Super Tiny”

I don’t mean this despairingly, but there’s a mixture of Mad Max and Harry Potter to the latest from The Dead Deads. The crew meets up in a questionable biker bar with leering men, takes them on with lazer guns and then rocks out after a contemplative moment in the bathroom with a holographic makeup […]

Anchor Thieves – Monolith

The specificity of it is hard to describe but there’s a raw confidence throughout the latest full-length release from Anchor Thieves that really carries the album. The fuzzed out guitars and dreamy vocals are expertly executed through the ten songs but the variety of small details that crop up in each song are what have […]

nightblonde – Transmission 1

Ready yourself for the official debut from nightblonde. This first teaser is just the first of much more to come.  (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

All Them Witches “Under Pressure”

The infamous Queen + David Bowie cover does not seem like a likely target for brooding psych rockers All Them Witches but it works surprisingly well. I credit the particularly dark lyrical vibe to the song. Oddly, the ATW version is surprisingly short, a song factoid you’ve never heard applied to this band previously. (Source: […]

The Privates, the Movie The Privates is a science fiction rock-and-roll comedy about the absurd frustrations and minor triumphs of an everyday rock band with a radioactive energy in their music they can’t control. The above is the quick summary for a new Kickstarter movie project that draws its inspiration from the Nashville band of […]

Chrome Pony “Ragged Child”

There’s a new Chrome Pony album on the horizon for Summer 2016 and “Ragged Child” is the first taste of what to expect. I gotta give it to them, they managed to work in a wailing saxophone solo that doesn’t sound hysterically out of place. 

Dave Paulson – Beep Bop Beep Bop

I don’t know if this should be considered a new direction for NORM or just some enjoyable dabblings from Dave Paulson himself but, whatever it is, it is delightful. Four tracks of beeps, bops and beep bops. 

Volume 73 Download MP3 / Stream Despite my best efforts to slow it down, 2016 is hurdling along. This edition of the podcast is comprised of many great releases from the end of 2015. After this, I should be able to keep up with actual NEW releases. Despite that, releases tend to fall through the […]

The By Gods – Get On Feelings

Today’s the day! After weeks of song previews and an entertaining music video debut, the second full-length album from The By Gods is now available. The nine song collection is not shy about its influences, decidedly 90′s rock. Not the industrial inspired rock of the 90′s ala Nine Inch Nails or the grotesquely soft rock […]

The By Gods “The Stairs”

Big week for The By Gods! They’re releasing their second full-length album, Get On Feelings, tomorrow (Friday the 22nd) and they’ve also released this hilariously gorey video for “The Stairs.” The band makes no qualms about having a decidedly 90′s sound and this video feels like a natural extension of that vibe. It harkens back to […]
