New LP : Regal - Misery, Redemption and Love

Few months ago the now Belgium based psych garage rockers Regal were at our place and fortunate enough had the demos from the new album and it was instantly love at the first sound. I always complain about that a lot of times garage and psych bands are much better live than the records but in this case i bet this album is gonna be a total banger. The album is out on Abzin records soon and here is your change to listen to the first tracks from Misery, Redemption and Love.

Video : Bleached - Searching Through The Past

Brand new music video from the Los Angeles based garage rockers Calvin Sisters, the "Searching Through The Past" 7" is out on Suicide Squeeze.

“We had to wake up at 4 a.m. to get to Santa Clarita by 5 a.m. for sunrise and got to see the eclipse on the way up. Originally we had wanted horses in the video so that’s why this spot was chosen. There was a graveyard there I had known about, but didn’t know if we would be able to get in it. We did by crossing a barbed wire fence and climbing a huge hill. When we got up there the gates swung open on their own. By the last shot my heel had completely broken off so I was balancing on one heel trying to make it look normal. My sister and I agreed that climbing over mountains in four-inch heels is the hardest workout we’ve ever had.” Jennifer Calvin
