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.

LP : Rayon Beach - This Looks Serious (2012)

One of my most eagerly anticipated albums of 2012 is the debut LP from the Austin Texas trio Rayon Beach on the fabulous Burger Records, "This Looks Serious" is a absolute magic position combining the California fuzz Surf-Rock and wave-punk with synths and dronesque soundscapes, psychedelic and sexy devilish rock n roll rhythms, the perfect blast for the coming summer and obviously on my 10 top albums of 2012.

MORE BANGERS HERE

New LP : The Dictaphone - The Dictaphone

My favourite French psych garage and noise makers return with another collection of borderline fuzz with hallucinogenic beats, claustrophobic drones, killer bass and distortion that threatens to melt your ears and send you straight into the state of clinical madness. I was absolutely blown away with their 2011 "Past.Future.Void" that was on my top 5 releases of the year, the new S/T cassette on Tolmie Terrapin Press follows the same path and go direct to nrb 1 in 2012 ... if u love Thee Oh Sees and The Cramps this will glide into your dreams like your favourite ice cream.
