The first album released in 2020 by the Dutch five-piece band TORII. They released a single in 2016 but haven't heard anything for four years. They probably blend influences from British guitar bands with Dutch culture, and while there is certainly a local feel to it, there is also the post-punk ideology of fellow countrymen PERSONAL TRAINER and a melody that seems to resonate with PET SHIMMERS. Above all, the ideas are exquisite because they are a third country, and there is certainly an invisible fake feeling, but that may be a good thing. In any case, it's a work that makes you feel sorry that it hasn't been noticed by the world. The vocals are a little fat, which is also good.[Read More]

-LTD. CLEAR VINYL EDITION- The PROPER ORNAMENTS, a four-piece band including James Hoare, former member of ULTIMATE PAINTING, who was previously the leader of VERONICA FALLS, current TOY, and Max Claps of PINK FLAMES, who were highly acclaimed in their home country of the UK and the US, with Bobby of PRIMAL SCREAM naming them as his favorites, but who broke up after a big fight with his partner, released their fourth album in 2019, their first in two years. The opening song, "Appologies," is a melancholic boy who will make you cry with a melody that is unlike anything you've seen in the best indie of the 80s, and is a total of 10 songs that you'll want to love between DIIV and (SANDY)ALEX G.[Read More]

=BACK IN= PIXX, 2017 1st album by Hannah Rodgers, 19 years old signed with 4AD. COCTEAU TWINS seems to have dropped the direct aesthetic to the current and traditional British indie line, but it's an electronic female pop that perfectly targets GRIMES and ST. VINCENT.・I think her approach exploded, but she actually turned into a goddess at the center of the current London indie scene. In addition to being directly connected to guests at HMLTD's live and around SORRY, STONE ROSES seemed to update LUST FOR YOUTH in the 21st century. I know that's what it is, so it's always new because I don't know. A piece that may actually symbolize 2017.[Read More]

=BACK IN= 2012 work, the third full-length album in just two years from NO.1 active cult post-punk band, Brighton's THE PHEROMOANS, and that UPSET! THE RHYTHM. However, in the meantime, they have released 2 mini-albums, including their amazing release pace. It's not enough to say, but it's not enough to say that the sense of refraction that has been oblique to everything so far has faded, but anyway, it's the recent Aussie that would have consciously stood on a new stage. A total of 12 songs that may lead to a DIY band. Of course, the idea and anti-establishment do not change. Limited to 500 pieces. I think it's early this time considering the sold out condition of the works so far.[Read More]

CHARLIE HICKEY was born in 1999 and grew up in a town near downtown Los Angeles. When he was 13 years old, he covered his favorite PHOEBIE BRIDGERS song and uploaded it to the internet. PHOEBIE BRIDGERS contacted him and, with her support, he began collaborating with her band member Marshall Vore. Then, after dropping out of school and starting his music career full-time, CHARLIE created his debut 12-inch single in 2021. She participated in the chorus on "No Good At Lying," a tear-jerking pop song in the direct line of PHOEBIE BRIDGERS. A limited edition of 6 songs by a newcomer with incredible potential. From PHOEBIE BRIDGERS' label Saddest Factory.[Read More]

-LTD. ROYAL BLUE VINYL- The reissue of the long-established Australian label Chapter Music is exciting. Members of the still active Aussie post-punk band PRIMITIVE CALCULATORS, which was re-evaluated worldwide in the 2010s, and members of the disco band MAX Q, which was formed in the late 1980s by MICHAEL HUTCHENCE of that national band INXS. The band USE NO HOOKS, a band that seems to have never released an official release even though they were in the band, discovered a pre-mixed tape that had been left in a cupboard for 35 years, and mixed and edited their first work. Inspired by New York's 99 Records, London's RIP, RIG & PANIC, and ACR, CHIC and SUGARHILL GANG were dropped onto the post-punk floor...[Read More]

Geniuses born in this world, especially in pop music and the underground, are only discovered after death, and of course they cannot be evaluated. This is the result of efforts to gain peace of mind for shallow people and enthusiasts who want to make a business out of pop music, but perhaps they simply do not have a sense. Such sense, which cannot be quantified like science or medicine, will probably become a very important item for society and the economy along with philosophy in 100 years, or surprisingly sooner, in about 50 years, with the help of AI. I spoke about this world in a very irresponsible and appropriate way, but the greatness of TIRZAH is still a matter of sense, and even I don't know how to convey it at all. Sense is d...

The most important and most difficult thing is to continue, which means evolution for us as humans. As the 2010s began, LOLINA created the foundation for the next 10 years as a member of HYPE WILLIAMS, and as a solo artist, she was thrown various aspects of herself at us, and we had no choice but to accept them face to face, but LOLINA continues to keep a firm eye on the times, not only herself, but also the world and society. Before her solo album masterpiece "Because I'm Worth It" was released in 2014 on her own label Relaxin Records, INGA COPELAND's first and last album "Higher Powers", which was released only as data, was released on limited vinyl. After this, the one who laughed = the origin of the Nike cap that all human beings ...

Suddenly two albums "5" and "7" in 2019, and "Untitled (Rise)" and "Untitled (Black Is)" in 2020. London's largest mysterious group, SAULT, continues to amaze the world and us. The ′′ 9 ′′ that lasts 2021 years, has arrived. And, at the moment of the release of the record, all digital distribution will be stopped. A further storm of excitement. In contrast to both works in 2020, which were slightly R&B-colored and major colors, ESG, which was described in the early days, added BENTLEY RHTYHM ACE big beat and motherfucker PRINCE in the late 1990s to SMITH & MIGHTY Bristol. A perfect 10-song masterpiece board that seems to have cracked, like all the past works, scooping out the core layer and sending a message to the masses in a...

=BACK IN= Gothic Queen CIRCUIT DES YEUX's masked name JACKIE LYNN, since the 1st album released in 2016, but it's a miracle that it will continue in 2020. was two years earlier than ORVILLE PECK. No, he was inspired by her. Just like the masked cowgirl looks and the wonderfully original 1st album like industrial country, the disco "Casino Queen" came out of nowhere. The preceding single "Sugar Water" that seems to be a cover of BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN by the POST PUNK band, the ballad "Dream St." that seems to be a real daydream of CINDY LEE, and NICO's singing with BROADCAST in the background. From funk to ballads.An artist must betray the fans so far and answer them.More than that, it is full of ideas and the ability to answer them.Th...[Read More]

Only MADONNA and KYLIE MINOGUE have emerged and become real female pop singers, but neither the public nor her fans are aware that she is not only following, but starting a revolution. CARLY RAE JEPSON, 4 years since the masterpiece "E MO TION", 2019 album. Even though she can be the romance singer that city boys are obsessed with, she never leaves that position. It doesn't do anything like fashionable pop or R&B, which should be trivial, but inherits the Billboard pop verse from the 80's. . Despite being loved all over the world, it's completely different from the world where you struggle alone and complain in a safe zone. She should have listened to God's voice, but like a soldier, she continues to commit crimes of heresy while ful...[Read More]

=BACK IN= Italians Do It Better, led by Jonny Jewel, who is also a hot topic for providing music for Twin Peaks' new work, has come here to revitalize the rage. What's more, this time, as Italians Do It Better, this time it's a limited edition of 500 copies, which is a very limited press series from the beginning (that's why it's even more expensive...). This is the 2nd EP, the first record in 8 years from the only men's group that has released TWISTED WIRES. I personally remember saying that the debut EP is the best of Italians Do It Better's works, but of course it's unchanging and perfect Italians Do It Better world It's forever innovative, DAVID BOWIE and YMO are DAVID LYNCH A dark romance that seems to have been played in the...[Read More]

Belarus. Lukashenko, the president of Europe's last dictatorship, said, "Vodka and saunas are effective against Corona. Seriously. Everything is serious if it is dictatorship. So like this threesome MOLCHAT DOMA. Their 1st album released in 2017 will be released worldwide from Sacred Bones. Not so, but they just might be viruses. The Minimal Wave ~ Goth line established from the 2000s and 2010s, is this real or a product of chance? I've bet my entire fortune on longshot number three, but not long ago I'll point and laugh at you now and the world three years from now, but I'll say it again and again. What is laughed at now is the future a little ahead. This looks. A drum box that just sounds like it's ringing. Vocal mustache and action. I...[Read More]

TRACE MOUNTAINS by Dave Benton who was active under the name of LVL UP. "House Of Confusion", which was released two years ago, was also an excellent work, but this album, which will be released in 2022, will face his past self and reconsider what he should do and what he can do as a musician. It's a work that seems to have found meaning and significance. Starting with the country-flavored intro at the beginning, he shows off the dreamy world he built himself without being pushy, and you can see that he takes great care in producing music for each arrangement. A person who puts on airs has so much capacity that it is not easy to accept him, and that is why we can also immerse ourselves in his special world. Also, the occasional power pop...[Read More]

Lola Dompe was a member of Blackblack, the kid alternative trio that blew us away in the 2000s (her older sister is Diva Dompe, aka DIVA, formerly of POCAHAUNTED), and her father is Kevin Haskins (!), the drummer of BAUHAUS. She was only about 13 years old when I met her back then, but now she has grown up and formed the band. This is a limited edition remix of the first album released by the prestigious Stones Throw label, which also releases J DILLA, MADLIB, ALOE BLACKACC, and others. Sudan Archives, which is a youth rock band that is more than post-punk synth but less than riot grrrl (it's unclear what it is) and probably unconsciously pushes the boundaries as if it was one of the first to revive electroclash and disco punk from the e...[Read More]

=BACK IN= LOU HAYTER was the keyboardist of the London band NEW YOUNG PONY CLUB, which debuted from Modular, which took the world by storm in the mid-2000s, and exploded between floor and guitar bands at the time. Released works under the name of The NEW SINS, supported by electronic producer Nick Phillips, who had been active under the name of BOXSAGA after leaving the group, and under the name of duo TOMORROW'S WORLD with Jean-Benoît Dunckel, one half of the duo AIR following DAFT PUNK in France. After that, the long-awaited first album in 2021 following the single under the solo name LOU HAYTER released in 2019 and 2020. It is not known that the person who first supported her as The NEW SINS was Paul S. Denman, the bassist and ...[Read More]

=BACK IN= -LTD. CLEAR COLORED VINYL + GATEFOLD WITH ALT COVER SLEEVE SPECIAL EDITION- Those who are unaware of this Burning London scene happening in the late 2010s are truly unhappy because 20 years later. Because many of them talk about it as "of that legend." Among them, the record that will be 100% revered as a classic album, it is the South London PHOBOPHOBES, 2018 1st album by former members of the boss The FAT WHITE FAMILY and its direct MEATRAFFLE. “We are now The FAT WHITE FAMILY.” The taste of Revel, on the contrary, releases originality, thinking about past punk, mods, Madchester, Britpop, no-no-no-hip-hop, techno, soul, rock-n-roll, and even classical music. It's all the same, and PHOBO...[Read More]

=BACK IN= - LTD . Supporting new bands in London, running the independent label O Genesis, and releasing compilations as a vinyl collector, he lives completely from the listener's point of view. Currently 53 years old!), his 2020 solo album is from Bella Union, which is managed by Simon Raymonde of COCTEAU TWINS. So super good. The abrupt opening begins with an intro that must have been inspired by CURE's "Boys Don't Cry", followed by otaku piano pop magic released by R.STEVIE MOORE on his own label, and a pure fan of bands of the same generation. A dream number like STONE ROSES overflowing with emotion (why isn't it CHARLATANS...but that's amazing), and so on. A total of 12 songs that seem to be t...[Read More]

-UK UPSET THE RHYTHM EDITION- Goner ~ In The Red EX-CULT guitarist Alec McIntyre and USA garage girl No. 1, NOTS strongest rhythm team Meredith Lones (bass) and Charlotte Watson (drums), and George Williford second・New band HASH REDACTOR formed by joining as a guitarist, 2019 1st album. This may be our answer to Australia's LOW LIFE, or maybe 80's heresy goth RED LORRY YELLOW LORRY is popular with hot guys around the world. And in spite of this super dark and awkward music, for some reason I get a feeling of youthful sprinting. All of my classmates were dancing with ridiculous smiles Everyone moved in the same way, everyone had the same face...in other words, youth wasn't for those guys who danced as they were told, but it was for...[Read More]

=BACK IN= Fucking good. A post-punk band from Olympia in Washington, USA that appeared in the 2010s, LITHICS and HOUSEHOLD are also the best recently, but they are exceptionally wonderful. A quartet of Pascal Luther, Aidan McNellis, Jenna DiMicco and Ella Svete. The SLITS ~ RAINCOATS A crash post-punk that is directly related to Riot Grrrls... If I write something like that, I think it will look like the usual thing, so I won't write it anymore. It's not something that everyone can share, so it would be nice to be able to put it into words, but no matter how you listen to it, no matter how you look at it, in front of the best band that gives you goosebumps, it's important to forcibly seek sympathy from others. It's just derelictio...[Read More]

For example, the world that pointed at normcore a few years ago and laughed at it is now walking around Harajuku with a cap and a T-shirt tucked in, ignorant. In this way, the irresponsible words "Believe in yourself" given by society without any backing make us stop thinking and become selfish people. But we can't stop! NOTHING CAN STOP US! ... I tell myself in this gold jacket today, a trivial story. There is no way I can believe in myself like that. That's why I follow the records of the times today as well. In other words, CONFIDENCE MAN's 2018 debut album is perfect. The music is like "Screamadelica", HAPPY MONDAYS, RIGHT SAID FRED and DEE-LITE added together and divided by Aussie culture, and this appearance that is not sure if it ...[Read More]

=BACK IN= New York duo PURR by Eliza Callahan and Jack Staffen, 1st album in 2020 from Anti-, who has recently released a series of new hits. Produced by WEYES BLOOD, ALEX CAMERON, and JONATHAN RADO of FOXYGEN who works with LEMON TWIGS and WHITNEY. What this PURR gives him is greater than his job. I can't think of a momentary record with such an explosive sense even in the last 10 years. Without them, they would just be stubborn old men, but in their case, that is outstanding. As you can see from Lemon Twigs and WHITNEY, the influence of the 70's often depends on their musical ability (but that is also the law of hits), but in their case, there is no retro feeling, no projectile feeling, and even more expert feeling. If it's goin...[Read More]

what? Am I sweating? teeth? Does this look like sweat? This is not sweat This is a soup! There is nothing good about things that turn into juices, that is, things that liquefy. Moreover, sweat and juice seem to be almost the same, and one bottle is missing. However, POND, led by Nick Allbrook, a man who dares to jump into that direction and ruins the career of former TAME IMPALA, the 2021 album is the best edgy and juice and juice ever again. In other words, it's not easy to get close to it. Mikihisa Higashi, who held a secret joint party with idols and the reporters flocked and I caused a lot of trouble, and Michael Tomioka, who normally picked up my girlfriend 30 years ago, CERRONE and DAFT PUNK old and new with French synth? It's one ...[Read More]

With the advent of GIRL BAND and FONTAINES DC, Ireland, who is now seriously hot, is a quartet PILLOW QUEENS, including Dublin sisters, and the 1st full album from their own label in 2020. Male, female, queer, right, left, middle, black, white, yellow, rich, poor, normal, beautiful, ugly, normal You're the only one who cares about that kind of thing. Giving up is a bad habit of yours and life is less than 100 years old. The times will continue even after we die, so it's not your impudence that I have to do something about it. PILLOW QUEENS may be naked feminists, but they are not stupid because they know what they should do and act accordingly. The persuasiveness of the melody is the potential of BIG MOON, and the loud sound is so loud t...[Read More]
