In order to not miss a beat TURN UP THE VOLUME scans the musical
horizon daily, for 10 years now, to pick ace tracks and add 5 new ones
twice per week, to the one and only JUKEBOX playlist that matters.
ALL TOGETHER
The 5 fresh ones
TRACK BY TRACK
Band: OMNI

exciting havoc since 2011. They have, fabricated
4 albums, so far.

New stand-alone single.
Droning jingle-jangle electricity.
Think Tom Verlaine‘s 70s Television.

and organ pipe organist, active since 2008.

Band: SKLOSS
Who: Psychedelic husband-and-wife duo started during the awful lockdown.
Surrounded by drums and amps and the need to play loud, their sound became
a response to the crazy world.
Track: VETO POWDER
A bonus piece from their debut
album The Pattern Speaks,
which landed last March.
“Veto Powder is a bonus track from the Pattern Speaks album and is one of the first songs we wrote as a band. It’s also an anti-war song. May we someday have the vision and courage to celebrate the infinite beauty in each other.”
Scuzzy and fuzzy
psych disturbance.

Band: THE BETHS
Who: Popular guitar pop
outfit from New Zealand.
Track: STRAIGHT LINE WAS A LIE
Title track from their upcoming 4th LP,
out this Friday.
“I thought I was getting better
But I’m back to where I started
And the straight line was a circle
Yeah, the straight line was a lie”
On November 10, PATTI SMITH‘s debut LP,
her magnum opus, HORSES, turns 50.
Of course, it’ll be celebrated with an anniversary edition, featuring several previously unreleased tracks. Along with the proper album, we get her 1975 audition tape for RCA,
an alternate take on Birdland and Snowball, a non-album track.
In many cases, previously unreleased tracks are just
average songs. Not here. This is vintage young Patti.
