This week my good pal Nico reached out with a link to the latest release on his brilliant Shoredive Records imprint. Waterville describe themselves as a preapocalyptic rock band from North East Poland. That’s certainly a new one on me so I just had to investigate. The Isle of Blue EP is not this bandsContinue reading “Waterville – Isle of Blue EP”

WOHN – No Shelter
Ireland is enjoying somewhat of a renaissance in its music scene. Particularly in the alt rock scene. The latest band to come to my attention are WOHN, a Coleraine based outfit featuring John Wisener (Singer. Guitar), Matthew McVicker (Lead Guitar), Dylan Norton (Drums) and Reece Gordon (Bass). They deal in loud brand of psychedelic, shoegaze-tingedContinue reading “WOHN – No Shelter”
Thought Bubble – Nowhere
It’s been just over a year since I wrote about the debut album from alt electronic duo Thought Bubble. A lot has happened in those ensuing twelve months for the band. Which is why it gives me enormous pleasure to hear that they’re back with their latest record, Nowhere. Thought Bubble, as you’ll remember, areContinue reading “Thought Bubble – Nowhere”
Hooveriii – A Round of Applause
I’m fond of a really good psych album. One that has direction, drive and hooks I can really get my teeth into. You can imagine my delight when the latest album from LA psych rockers Hooveriii dropped into my inbox. Pronounced Hoover Three, the band was created by founder Bert Hoover. Hooveriii has grown toContinue reading “Hooveriii – A Round of Applause”
Fir Cone Children – Today There’s No Tomorrow
A new Fir Cone Children album is a cause to celebrate at the Static Sounds Clubhouse. Alexander Donat’s shoegaze punk project has always produced the most uplifting, optimistic music. Given that this is one of many musical projects he’s involved with I’m constantly in awe of his work ethic. Not only that, but his abilityContinue reading “Fir Cone Children – Today There’s No Tomorrow“
Holy Springs – E.A.T
I’ve been craving some new shoegaze sounds which my good friends over at the label Up In Her Room were only too happy to help me out with. They are releasing the debut album from London based three-piece, Holy Springs. Consisting of Neil Atkinson Jr, Maria Bellucci and Suzanne Sims the band have released aContinue reading “Holy Springs – E.A.T”
Korb – Korb III
I am a relative late comer to the cosmic sounds of Korb. I received their self-titled debut album as a gift and was blown away by the vivid journey that the music took me on. I then discovered their seminal second album, Korb II. Again, the space rock sounds took me away and had meContinue reading “Korb – Korb III”
Label Focus – Fuzzed Up & Astromoon Records
The psyche scene couldn’t be more buoyant with more and more excellent bands emerging all the time. This makes it all the more important that there are amazing record labels out there to make sure we get to hear them. Over the last few months, I’ve fallen head over heels for Dublin-based Fuzzed Up &Continue reading “Label Focus – Fuzzed Up & Astromoon Records”
The Stargazer Lilies – Vibes of Love
My favourite psychedelic gazers are back with a second teaser for their new album Cosmic Tidal Wave. The Stargazer Lilies return to spread the ‘Vibes of Love’. My mind was spinning after hearing the previous single, ‘Bending the Lines’, so I literally had to be scraped off the ceiling to write this. ‘Vibes of Love’Continue reading “The Stargazer Lilies – Vibes of Love”
Mark Peters – Red Sunset Dream
Back in July, I posted my first impressions of the new track from Mark Peters, ‘Switch On The Sky’. It was a beautiful mantra to the sun sung by One Doves Dot Allison. I’ve now been living with the album it comes from for a couple of months now and I think it’s about timeContinue reading “Mark Peters – Red Sunset Dream”
