Posted on by JL

New striking strokes

26 June 2022

OZZY is back, alive and kickin’, at 73.

But with all the Botox in his face he looks like a wax statue
that just escaped from Madame Tussauds in London.

Anyway, the black sabbath man canned an new album, baptized
PATIENT NUMBER 9. It’ll be unleashed on 9 September.

To warm up, here’s the title track featuring guitar legend Jeff Beck.
It’s a premature Halloween howl, but a damn great one.

Release the bats, Ozzy…

Songsmith COLYN CAMERON Shares EYE-Catching Clip For Dark Lullaby ‘DEEPFAKES’

Posted on by JL

Eye-catching clips

25 June 2022

Artist: COLYN CAMERON
Who: Singer-songwriter from Vancouver.

New single/clip: DEEPFAKES
Third new shared song from his upcoming
album Freehand.

Cameron: “I was reading a book by the same name as my new single,
Deepfakes by Nina Schick, which got me thinking about this AI technology,
but also the veil of capitalism that we already exist under, and how this
particular corner of the near future relates to the mega-marathon of
consumption & distorted nature of our current priorities.”

Deepfakes is a sweet little lullaby. Gentle, tender and warm.
Like crooners do. But the lyric topic is less charming.

Capitalism (still) rules. And some new technology like AI only serves
capitalism. The bitter truth is that you can’t stop the greedy money
sharks. Fortunately, they can’t stop good music.

Here’s the eye-catching accompanying,
as scary as capitalism…

Posted on by JL

Daily electricity to load your batteries

25 June 2022

Band: THE BANKROBBER
Who: Italian alt-pop band led by
brother ad sister Giacomo and
Maddalena Oberti‘.

New single: BURN ME SOFTLY
Third new piece from their
forthcoming, sophomore album.

Score: This is a mesmeric slo-mo electro groove with Soft Cell synths here and there, a booming beat making your head move up and down while your feet tap to the rhythm. The dark lyrics and the haunting siblings vocals create a shadowy atmosphere. A curious and capricious cut. Another great single. Bring on the album!

Try this: lights out, headphones on, volume to the max.
It’ll feel like if your heart beats like hammer blows.

Press play here…

Waking Up With New Creepy/Hilarious OSEES Blow

Posted on by JL

Works faster than caffeine

25 June 2022


Artwork new album

JOHN DWYER, the man who breathes, eats, drinks and dreams
music will test your speakers’ resilience with a new OSEES album,
named A FOUL FORM in August.

But first new single PERM ACT.

Listen what Dwyer has to say about the song’s inspiration. Creepy but oh so funny.

Dwyer: “Who likes a cop? Other cops. After years of having unpleasant to violent encounters with police, I had the thought that wouldn’t it be fun if they loved each other so much they ate each other…a sort of dark comedy contemporary and executive branch based “a modest proposal.”

Here’s the unhinged, animated clip. Brilliant…

All tour dates 2022 HERE.
