Band: MOONRIIVR
Who: Seasoned rock tandem
from Toronto, Canada.

Track: FORCE OF HABIT
Piece from their new album
Moonriivr Vol. 2, out
later in the year.

“A song about letting go of the past and searching for a new way forward.”

TUTV: Oh yeah! Brace yourself for some movin’ and groovin’ electricity.
Force Of Habit is a riff- ripsnorter with retro-rock reverberations and
eagerly echoing vocals. Back to the future.

Inspiring and enlivening.

Artists: RADARBASE
Who: Two Brits knocking
dance anthems together.

Track: SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

TUTV: Soft Cell on adrenaline. Erasure on amphetamine. Enriching electro pop nirvana
at its most beautiful. Ignore the outside bedlam for about 6 minutes on repeat. The beat goes on and on and on. Twirl yourself dizzy.

Get up and boogie.

Instagram – Linktree
—————————————————————————————————————————–

Band: CRISPY DANGER
Who: A fresh, red-hot act fronted by siblings, residing in Melbounre (Australia).
Formed last year, the trio’s soul comes from a heavy metal heritage, yet their music combines riff-driven rock with catchy pop sensibilities and hard-hitting lyrics, carving
out a genre unique to themselves.

Track: OUTTA CONTROL
Their debut single.


Artwork by Australian artist Franko

TUTV: Outta Control is a bad-ass and bass-tastic sledgehammer with all amps up,
decibels up, and uproar up. Agitated vocals, combative drumming, a Slash guitar
solo, and a mammoth chorus mingle into a bashing debut burst.

Instagram – Spotify
—————————————————————————————————————————–

 

Band: WAVES CRASHING
Who: Alt-rock outfit from
Olympia, Washington.

Track: MARINE GARDEN
New single from their upcoming sophomore full-length,
named In The Blur. Out May 20th. Tracklist and order info here.

Lyrically, it’s a meditation on presence and release, tracing the sensation
of shedding mental weight against a backdrop of ocean air and open sky.

TUTV: At the core Marine Garden is a well-pitched lullaby, warmed by The Cure-esque
guitar glow, a firm beat, and longing vocals. An ear-pleasing musing that triggers melancholic reflections.

Magnetic sensitiveness.

—————————————————————————————————————————–

Band: THE SUNCHARMS
Who: Indie/shoegaze
act from Sheffield, UK.

Track: ANNABEL LEE
Cut from their new album
Darkening Sky. Stream it here.

TUTV: It’s a mid-tempo, 60s psychedelia-echoing, guitar-layered tune, juiced
with good old-fashioned Hammond organ-like warmheartedness and dreamy
vocals.

Relaxing vibes.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 18 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

Another batch of 5 new, stellar tracks have
been added to Turn Up The Volume’s Jukebox.

Listen up.

ALL TOGETHER


.
TRACK BY TRACK

Band: CYPRESS HILL
Who: The weed-fueled hip-rap-hoppers
from South Gate, California.

Track: CAMPEONES

New piece from their upcoming 11th LP. A project performed entirely
in Spanish that aims to highlight their Latin roots and reconnect directly
with their cultural heritage. Tracklist & release date TBA.

It features fellow rapper Mellow Mace Ace.

TUTV: Vamos, rapeemos. Cypress Hill let pelvis move from left to right and
back to the accordion’s ambiance. Sickly sticking melodia. Fix yourself a
cocktail and sway your body to the party beats.

Instagram – Linktree
—————————————————————————————————————————–

Band: FACS
Who: Chicago-based art rock/post-punk trio
formed in 2017. So far, they have released
5 full-lengths.

Track: PARALLEL LIVES
The band will be on tour in Australia
with Chimers, and to commemorate,
they’ve bagged a split 7″.

TUTV: The electrically-rampant debates open with out-of-tune guitars, progress lazily,
and freak out from the 3-minute mark. Kafkaesque unbridledness for chaotic minds.

Instagram – Linktree
—————————————————————————————————————————–

Band: BUTTHOLE SURFERS
Who: The Texan post-rock-punk veterans who
came together in 1981 and unleashed 8 albums
to this day.

Track: IMBUYA
Title cut from their brand new 4-track EP (2 studio, 2 live tracks).
Stream here.

TUTV: This messy, speed-up psych jam with neurotic drum ‘n’ bass percussion
in the back is a flipped-out stunner. The surfers age backwards. Whoopee-doo.

Instagram – Spotify
—————————————————————————————————————————–

Artist: SUKI WATERHOUSE
Who: Songstress, actress
and model from London.

Track: TINY RAISIN
New single from her forthcoming 3rd album, called
Loveland. It comes our way on July 10th.

Waterhouse: “A love song at its core. It’s a song that stands by the fact that real love in its truest essence can be chaotic, ridiculous, and imperfect, while still being something that is absolutely worth choosing over and over again at the end of the day.”

TUTV: Power pop glamour with witty lyrics and fabulous vocals. Dumpfounding class.

Instagram – Spotify
—————————————————————————————————————————–

Artist: MARTIN CARR
Who: Former guitarist of Britpop
idols The Boo Radleys.

Track: WHAT FUTURE
The title song of his
upcoming album, out
this Friday, May 1st.

Carr: “I’ve been putting together these sounds for many years but this
is the first time where I thought ‘this doesn’t really sound like anything else
and decided to put it out.”

TUTV: Techno daft-punk on the run. Electro rock shock. Winding mix of paranoic synths, bass booms, and some helium-infused Carr interventions. Good grief. What a brainfucker.

from Monmouth, South Wales.

Track: THE STANDARD MODEL
One of two new pieces, along with I Watched You As Your Mind
Slipped Far Away (Away From Me). Available both on 7″ vinyl

“The Standard Model’ has been with us since the birth of our band. Although it hits
hard, it’s our least serious, most purely fun and ecstatic song. We built it by stitching
two catchy riffs together”

TUTV: Blimey. Guerilla guitars explode in your face from the kick-off, followed
by a turbulent, gassed-up race, dynamized with urgent vocals. These jittery
juveniles are going places.

Keep your ears and eyes peeled.

Band: TOOTH

introspective sound.”

debut EP, out in June.

TUTV: Shoegazy guitar layers, a restless rhythm section, and ardent
vocals dominate this swivel-eyed stunner until it transitions into an
unexpected, calming finale.

“I feel like I’m a new artist. I think this album will surprise those
who think they know me from what I’ve done previously.”

TUTV: Well, you’re obviously never too old to put out your debut LP.
Of course, after half a decade of electrifying Patti Smith’s backing band,
Kaye knows all the tricks to deliver some good old rock ‘n’ roll buzz.

Because the night belongs to Kaye.

appetite for titanic tunes from? Quicksand are back on fire, folks. Fervent fire.

Bingo!

Bitchy, punky and witty.

—————————————————————————————————————————–

Band: LUCY’S HOUSE
Who: Indie duo from Australia.

Track: JUNCTION BEARING

Carried by introspective lyrics, the song navigates the disorientation
of trying to hold something together that’s already slipping away.

TUTV: This bass tanked-up groove gets under your skin without asking. There’s a kind
of imminent tension up in the air thoughout this hypnotic ride and when anxious guitars take over somewhere in the middle, it’s amps and heat up. This mind-boggling slice of psychedelic fever will bend your head for some time.

Press play.

Who: Blur‘s guitarist/co-songwriter who also has 8 solo LPs, and

A-OK.

Who: 3 rowdy juveniles
from Montreal, CA.

Track: THE IDIOTS HAVE TAKEN OVER
New piece from their upcoming debut LP, titled Can’t Please Em All .
Out May 8th. Tracklist and order-info here.

TUTV: Sounds like if Green Day are playing Dead Kennedys killers. Full steam ahead.
Fast and furious. I’m pretty sure these there fired-up teens stole half of their parents record collection and got inspired to; dive head first, into the chaotic times we live in
and go after the empty-headed idiots who rule the planet. That’s punk for you, folks.

No BS, honest and direct.

Who: The new musical project of American
singer-sonwgriter Devlin McCluskey,

Track: KINGDOM COMES
2 shared piece of his ucpoming self-titled debut
album, out on May 22nd. Tracklist and info here.


Album artwork

“I hate to admit it but this song was a turning point for me. My last band faded away, I’d lost touch with my friends, we were in this new dark era of American Society, and I just felt like if I didn’t squeeze with all my might I’d float off into the abyss. I wasn’t looking to start a band, but ‘Kingdom Comes’ became a guiding light for the kind of music I wanted to make.”

TUTV: From a heart-rending Matt Berninger-like start to electrifyng blues-weeping guitars. From intimate reflection to soul-stirring excorcism. Visceral passion in magnetic (e)motion.

Striking stroke.

Artist: COROOK
Who: Nashville-based singer-songwriter Corinne Savage, 
who released her debut LP Committed To A Bit.

Track: KLEPTOMANIAC

“Being liked is nice. Being honest is better.
I’m learning to choose the second one.”

TUTV: This Courtney Barnett-like groover sticks instantly. Vivid vibes
trigger forth-and-back sway moves. Manic story, poppy vocals.

Band: GETDOWN SERVICES
Who: Stand-up groove comedians from
Bristol (UK), with 2 EPs under their belt.

Track: THE RADIATOR
Newest single.

“This song is about only picking fights that you know you’ll win. It came about because
the heating wouldn’t come on once and I thought about when we bang things to make
hem work. The sense of victory you get when you feel like you’ve physically intimidated
an inanimate object into doing what you want is bizarre and pathetic and really
funny.”

TUTV: Getdown Services serve a new get up, jiggle and let your pelvis have some fun
tune. This witty duo master the needed tricks to activate your lazy ass and make it
wobble.

Newest shared piece from their upcoming
9th full-length, called Act III. Out on July 17th.

Track: TILL YOUR MIND IS SHINING
New cut from his 11th solo LP o\i.
Programmed for release after summer.

Gabriel: “Of all the songs that I’ve written for i/o and o\i this is probably the poppiest for me.
It takes me back to my schooldays, in some ways, because before there was Genesis we were effectively trying to be songwriters more than musicians. I think this song connects me back to some of those roots and the sort of thing that I was working on then and trying to master.”

TUTV: Gabriel does here what he already did on his previous album i/o, coming
up with electro-juiced compositions driven by funky beats and throbbing, rhythmical dynamics. No sledgehammers anymore.

Band: POLEVAULTER
Who: Indie antagonists from Leeds (UK)
who released their debut LP Hang Wave
in 2024.

Track: MANIFEST
Crushing cut from their new
4-track EP Descending.

TUTV: From the kick-off motorik, repetitive synth-layered beats drive you mad. Intimidating vocals augment the tense danger that hangs all over Manifest and haunts your confused psyche. In short, a drilling hammer to crush the demons in your mind for the rest of the day.

Artist: ADAM DONEN
Who: South Africa-born, Germany-based multidisciplinary
artist who writes, directs, composes, and invents new art
forms. More info here.

Track: BIBLE STORIES
The title song of his upcoming album

“In my head, ‘Bible Stories’ was sung by a character not a million miles away from the guy
Mick Jagger sings as in Sympathy for the Devil or The Judge in Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian. The key difference, though, is that he’s always regarding himself so much: in the midst of a genocide, you imagine him worrying about whether the photographer’s catching his good side.

He’s waltzing devil-like through this incredible evil, seemingly loving every moment, you get this sense that in part, maybe most of all, he’s performing for himself, so he doesn’t have to face what’s under the costume.”

TUTV: I know this will sound weird, but what I hear here is as if Leonard Cohen muses
all over a spooky, nightmarish, sonic cascade. The near-breathing vocals echo the late legendary crooner’s bluesy timbre, while the manic musical progression gets under your skin without asking. Intriguing and transfixing experience.

Linktree
——————————————————————————————————————————

Artists: BROTHER DYNAMITE
Who: New York City-based indie pop/rock duo of Shawn Moynihan
and Alan Miller playing and writing songs together in various bands
since high school.

In 2022, they released their debut album If We Dare.

Track: YOUR TIME WILL COME

“If there’s ever been someone in your life that you wished a little karma upon, this song is for you.  Or is this song about someone in particular?  We’ll leave that to the listener to decide.”

TUTV: From the get-go, this bright-eyed and bushy-tailed rockin’ jam activates all your
itchy limbs. Your time has come to tap your feet to the beat, clap along, sing/hum along, and then run for cover.


.
Instagram – Spotify
——————————————————————————————————————————

Band: SUGARPUNCH
Who: Ferocious rock indies from the Netherlands. They got together in the spring
of 2020, in the middle of a tumultuous epidemic, aiming at world dominance.

“Window is a peephole into the dark, shameless desires that go hand in hand with obsession. Through the eyes of a stalker, we look at a one-sided desire stemming from a kind of God complex. It plays with delusions that the desired person should feel honored in order to be loved by the stalker. She portrays herself as a sort of ‘hero’ who will take away his loneliness.”

TUTV: Wowzers. After an eerie vocal intro, all hell breaks loose. Window is a merciless uppercut propelled by schizoprenic guitars, a clobbering drum/bass artillery, and sky-scraping singer Janneke screaming her four lungs out in the middle. Think The Offspring fronted by Courtney Love. Advice, have a look under your bed before you press play and start the fireworks.

Band: OCTAVIAN WINTERS
Who: 4-piece, born into the ghostly isolation of San Francisco in 2022. Their sound
mirrors the surrealism of that time, weaving threads of the visceral and ethereal
together into shimmering instrumental layers, with vocals that alternately soar
and dive.

In 2023, they released 5-track EP, The Line Of Curve.

Track: ELEMENTS OF AIR

TUTV: Dark Gothic waves flood your stereo. Big bass/drum beats, distorted guitars, shadowy synth-reverberation, and spine-tingling combine for a towering rersonance.
Think Bauhaus, think Killing Joke.

Who: Noise-rock outfit
from Liege, Belgium

Track: CONQUEST
New piece from their upcoming debut
album Freakshow, out on May 29th.

The song takes aim at the hatred spread by the modern
era’s “big bad wolves”, and flips it into a wild trance.

TUTV: Expect a blasting-banging psych-rock jackhammer that attacks your eardrums the way you like it. It’s a sick bastard of a track for these sick times. No mercy for the bad guys. Get in your car, and zigzag your way through your conquering race.

Linktree

Band: LIGER
Who: Alternative rock team from Aachen, Germany, originally formed in Bristol (UK),
with a sound that sits between Shinedown, Beartooth, and Architects, emotional, powerful, and modern. Big hooks and a distinctive lead vocal meet an intense, high-energy live performance.

They released their debut full-length Rednight in 2020.

Track: CALL ME
First shared piece from
their upcoming EP.


Single artwork

TUTV: Holy smoke. A gigantic wall-of-insane-guitar sound explodes from the start.
Call Me is a muscular whopper that never slows down and that trashes your stereo
non-stop, meanwhile the vocalist screams his 4 lungs out. Blimey, what a volcanic discharge. Alert your neighbours before you press play.

chicken-pickin’ Americana sextet.

Track: MY BABY’S HAPPY
Opener from their 5th EP in 2 years, named

TUTV: This sonic trip is a feel-good, accordian-juiced, Americana voice jam. Groovy and funky. Everybody’s happy. Midway, a voltaic guitar solo pops up and country guest singer
Elias Smith adds some soulful energy. Slowly but surely, the track heads towards a head-spinning climax. Dope stroke.

Hello, music junkies.

Another batch of 5 new, stellar tracks have
been added to Turn Up The Volume’s Jukebox.

Listen up.

ALL TOGETHER


.
TRACK BY TRACK

Artists: LIFELOOSE
Who: Aldi Ho and Josie Silverman, two friends who met at London’s Guildhall Middle School . Together, they make throbbing, hedonistic dance tracks with murmuring deadpan vocals.

Track: LIFELOOSE

“‘Lifeloose’ is our dark and hypnotic satirical take on self-importance. Mixing irony
and seduction, the floaty vocals flirts with a crusty breakbeat and DIY wacky electronics.
The party’s only just begun.”

TUTV: This is wham-bam awesome. Booming bass beats hit your bones relentlessly and put your mind in a trance while delirious peek-a-boo voices cause a twilight ambiance for some shadowdancing. Tricky trip hop stuff. Transcendent vibrations!

Band: BOYR!OT
Who: Boisterous Los Angeles-based duo. Their journey began with a fateful meeting on Tinder in 2017, bound by a shared passion for emo and pop-punk music. They craft a nostalgic yet contemporary soundscape akin to Good Charlotte, 3OH!3, and My Chemical Romance, all viewed through their distinctive queer, outsider perspective.

Track: HOLLYWOOD NIGHTMARE

Press info: “It’s an escapist anthem about partying through an emotional crashout. Fueled by recession-pop attitude and the chaos of early-2000s tabloid culture, BOYR!OT cranks up the emo angst with punchy guitars and scream-it-back hooks.”

TUTV: Electro-cuting drones hammer your skull in non-stop, while hopped-up voices accelerate the blitzkrieg ride you’re on, from the get-go. When the traumatic chorus
kicks in, it’s time to go completely ballistic. WTF! Yes, that’s the feeling.

Instagram – Spotify
——————————————————————————————————————————

Band: THE N.S.O.
Who: A Yorkshire (UK) four-piece who mix various influences and genres into their work resulting in a sound that is enticingly fresh and exciting. They combine dark and gritty vocals with light hearted melodies making for a winning combo at every turn.

Track: COUNSELLORS CALL

“Counsellors Call is a conversation with yourself, your partner, your boss, your friends or your ‘counsellor’. It’s realisation and contradiction in one, to a familiar rhythm in a humorous way, just like life itself.”

TUTV: Take up the phone and shake-swing-sway along to the strumming
Coral-esque guitar swagger at work here. Counsellors Calls is a jumpy, frisky,
and pop-juiced tune that will bounce in your head for the rest of the day. Bingo.

and Internal Noise (2024).

Track: AGAINST THE GRAIN

Press info: “An indie anthem for the underdog. A celebration of the ones who carve their own path, rather than follow the herd. The song embraces that raw authenticity and the care-free energy of youth.

TUTV: Against The Grain balances somewhere between smooth Dinosaur Jr moments
and guitar-layered fuzziness by Band Of Horses, invigorated with rigid drum/bass pulsations and spacey melodiousness. On top, silvery vocals float along, bringing Sparklehorse‘s hallucinatory vocals to mind. Splendiferous stroke.

Band: MATT JONES AND THE BOBS
Who: Indies from Southwest Virginia, who have woven a tapestry of raw emotion and timeless storytelling since their formation in 2011. They have released their debut album Brother’s Hymn in 2014.

Track: WICKED WAYS

Matt Jones: “The song is our nod to family, forgiveness, and the strength it takes to become better men. It’s about looking back without shame and owning where we came from, but also who we’ve grown into. It celebrates brotherhood and grace during a period of outgrowing our past without forgetting it.”

TUTV: When sonic sepia-colored melancholia, sparkly guitar maudlinism, and heartrending vocals come together in a song like the way it happens here, your ears will get enthralled with a touching, don’t look back in anger, reverie that makes you feel good about the place you’re in with your loved ones. Electrifying nostalgia for all of us.
