The 5 fresh ones
TRACK BY TRACK
Band: GURRIERS
Who: Fast-rising, Irish post-punk team who
released their debut album Come And See
a year ago.
Track: ERASURE
“Erasure is a chaotic mash of genres, an unwavering cry
into the void in the face of imperialism and tyranny”.
TUTV: These Irishmen hunt all sort of fascists who want to rule the world, with a sharp knife between the teeth, while chainsaw guitars, a manic drummer and an intimidating vocalist prepare for a fiery fight.

Artist: BAXTER DURY
Who: Flamboyant British songsmith.
Track: MOCKINGJAY
TUTV: Dury launches his 9th LP, tomorrow, Friday,
but in a hurry, he offers us a final taster with this funky,
drums-driven stomper.

Band: THE BIG IDEA
Who: Indie team from
La Rochelle, France.
Track: THESE DAYS
Newest single from their upcoming 6th album,
titled ‘Half A Dozen‘, out on October 17th.
It stands as a definitive post-punk manifesto, firmly rooted in the present.
TUTV: Expect a jagged jam circling around a non-stop riff that keeps rotating
in your head long after the outro. Ominous vocals grumble all over These Days’
beat-heavy groove. Boogielicious dynamics, threatening vibrations. Both
infectious and scary.

Band: CROW FOLLOW
Who: Boston‘s urban cabaret
and velvet shaman swamp rock project.
Track: GOLDEN DAYS
TUTV: This drum-powered chant spiced with some golden Mexican trumpet glow, sultry sax and ends with nervous guitars sounds a bit weird at first, but after a couple of spins, everything falls into place and you end up with a contagious, foot-tapping tune that you replay in an eye/ear blink. Top-tier stroke.

Band: HALFCUTLEMON
Who: Alternative rock band, from Copenhagen (Denmark),
blending raw punk aesthetics with cinematic depth and lyrical introspection.
Track: DISTURBANCE
The song turns a watchful eye toward conspiracy culture and our willingness to be guided, seated, and comforted. The message is part caution, part reassurance: someone will take care of you, keep you warm, radiators unite.
TUTV: Rip-roaring riffage, tireless drum beats and encouraging vocals work together tightly on this psyched up sucker punch that slows down suddenly somewhere in the middle, refills its tank and storms towards a berserk finale.
