Canadians Runway launched this, their self-titled album back in April this year which I totally missed. They are set to release it to vinyl at long last so what better time to explore these amazing tracks. They have already won over the psyche fandom with their choice heavy jams so they are fairly well knownContinue reading “Runway – Runway”

2020 was a tumultuous time for us all but in the spring of that year in Austin, Texas a new band was born. Alex Capistran, Nick Cornetti, Misti Hamrick and Derek Strahan came together to form DAIISTAR. Fans of the neo-psychedelic era of the 80s and 90s they set about creating their own unique takeContinue reading “DAIISTAR – Good Time”
SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE – I’m So Lucky
Of all the bands I’ve come across over the last few years there’s only one that defies all attempts to pigeon hole or classify. Philadelphia’s SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE have made some of the last decades most ground-breaking music across four stunning studio albums. Each album more confounding and spellbinding than the last. Entertainment, DeathContinue reading “SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE – I’m So Lucky”
Studio Kosmische – Beyond the Circle of The Fixed Stars
If you’re fortunate enough to snag a vinyl copy of the new Studio Kosmische album then what follows will be old news. I was lucky enough to be asked to write a review to appear on the album’s obi strip. As the music fired my imagination, I couldn’t resist but pen a short story basedContinue reading “Studio Kosmische – Beyond the Circle of The Fixed Stars”
Night Beats – Rajan
Always on the hunt for new music I recently stumbled across Night Beats, the psychedelic brainchild of Texas-born, LA-based artist Danny Lee Blackwell. He’s just released his sixth studio album entitled Rajan and it immediately caught my ear. Some of this album’s tracks sound like they come right out of a Sergio Leone movie. IContinue reading “Night Beats – Rajan”

The albums to date have been nothing short of life affirming, joyousContinue reading “Fir Cone Children – The Urge To Overtake Time”
Feeble Little Horse – Girl With Fish
Last year I stumbled across the stunning debut album from Pittsburgh DIY noise makers Feeble Little Horse. Hayday was an instant hit with its slacker sensibilities and killer songs. The band have just dropped their second full length album and I couldn’t wait to get it on the turntable. Now it’s time to get someContinue reading “Feeble Little Horse – Girl With Fish”
Helicon – God Intentions
Glasgow’s psychedelic generals Helicon return with their third album, God Intentions. Once again releasing on one of my absolute favourite labels, Fuzz Club, the band are promising their most ambitious, collaborative and psychedelic record to date.

After wowing us with their Affectations EP last year LA based musicians Lauren Andino and Glenn Fryatt return with a new single, ‘Dark Glasses’. This band have been out on two full US tours pulling material together for a full-length album later in the year. Until then they are teasing us with another serving ofContinue reading “Tremours – Dark Glasses”
Under The Sun – Robot World
I’ve made no secret of the fact I love shoegaze music. What I love even more is when I hear someone take that genre I love so much and push and stretch it into new and exciting shapes. In the UK we’re lucky to have Matt Catling aka Under The Sun. Regular visitors to StaticContinue reading “Under The Sun – Robot World”
