New Albums In 2024 – British Sensation YARD ACT With Their 2d One In March
31 December 2023
British indie rockers YARD ACT shot to the top like a
comet last year with their ace debut LP The Overload.
Last summer they came back with a high-caliber, stand-alone single,
named The Trench Coat Museum. A harbinger for album number two,
titled, WHERE’S MY UTOPIA that will show up on 1 March 2024.
Pre-order info here.
Press info:” The return of Yard Act. Where’s My Utopia? is the follow up to the Leeds band’s critically-acclaimed debut record The Overload which arrived in January 2022. Written in snapshots of time between a relentless touring schedule, and produced jointly by the band and Gorillaz’ Remi Kabaka Jr, the quartet’s second act is a giant leap forward into broad and playful new sonic waters. Across the record, influences ranging from Fela Kuti to Ennio Moricone via Spiller’s ‘00s pop smash ‘Groovejet’ make themselves known.”

Waking Up On The Last Day Of 2023 With PARTY HARD Animal ANDREW W.K.
Daily noise that works faster than any stimulant
31 December 2023
After 30 years (he joined a band at the age of 14) and only 6 albums, party animal ANDREW W.K. scored his best moment with his smashing debut single PARTY HARD
from 2001. It featured on his debut LP I Get Wet with the controversial bleeding noise cover (too much coke? Nasty fall from stairs? Banging his head too hard against the wall?).
Anyway, it’s the last day of 2023. Time to party hard.
Have tons of fun, all you music junkies out there,
but stay safe.

New Albums In 2024 – TY SEGALL Premiers New LP ‘THREE BELLS’ On 26 January
30 December 2023
Californian post-punk garage rocker TY SEGALL is one of the busiest bees in rockbizz. With 14 solo LPs in only 15 years and some collaborative albums here and there, like with his wife under the moniker of The C.I.A. you wonder when this guy sleeps.
On 26 January, he’ll premiere his new longplayer THREE BELLS.
Press info: “A fifteen song cycle that takes a journey to the center of the self. Ty’s been on this kind of trip before, so he’s souped up a vehicle that’s all his own – a sophisticated machine – to take us there this time. The conception of Three Bells arcs, rainbow-like, into a land nearly beyond songs – but inside of them, Ty relentlessly pushes the walls further and further in his writing and playing to cast light into the most opaque depths.”
