JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 11 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

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

Listen up.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Band: McCASLIN DAHLE
Who: Duo of seasoned musicians featuring Donny McCaslin (3x Grammy nominee, bandleader on Blackstar by David Bowie) and Ryan Dahle (Limblifter, Age of Electric, Mounties).

Track: HENRY TAKES THE 5TH  
First single, from their upcoming debut album MXD,
out May 22nd. Tracklist and more info right here.

“The song frames the mundane through a child’s lens where
the everyday feels enormous, heavy and extraordinary.”

TUTV: Expect a speedy, head-twisting ride, full-steam ahead from the get-go. Vocally magnetic, sonically intoxicating, and hopped-up, spiced with frenetic saxophone upsurges, adding a freaky force to this turbulent psych stormer. One spin and your ears are hooked.

Striking stroke.

Band: CHALICE SECT
Who: A darkwave project from Los Angeles, drawing from post-punk,
new wave, and dark electro while maintaining a modern electronic edge.

Track: SILENT FEVER

Press info: “An electrifying pulse carries the song with an infectious post-punk
beat. Catchy synth hooks lift the track into clubbing territory, primed for both
at-home listening or dark-lit club floors.”

TUTV: You better be in great physical shape if you want to catch up with this steaming electro speedball. Silent Fever is an adrenaline-soaked, ballistic missile messing around with your head. Creepy vocals and relentless percussion dominate this hellish darkwave motherrocker. No rest for the wicked.

Press play.
Here. Now.

Band: BRAIN LEAK
Who: Intense, all-feeling alt-rock four-piece from Manchester (UK)
fronted by Tara-Gabriella Engelhardt. They have released their debut EP,
titled Put Back Together last year.

Track: SKIN REMEMBERS
Newest single

Engelhardt: I like the fact that you can really move to it, but it retains signature
Brain Leak motifs like the slightly unpredictable structure and vulnerable storytelling.
Lyrically, it’s a mixture of me recounting a night with someone and reflecting on my
experience of being infatuated by them.”

TUTV: Your ears are immediately impressed by a fast-forward, bass-pushed groove, your mind gets confused by the Shirley Manson-like vocal tension hanging in the air, and your body starts to move in mysterious ways. Skin Remembers feels like a rush of blood to the head.

Far-out trip.

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

Band: GREAT HARE
Who: Seasoned DIY guitar
rockers from Sweden

Track: VOYAGER 3

TUTV: Once again, these Swedish music addicts show their knack for writing
attention-grabbing tunes that spin around in your head throughout the day.

This new bass-peppered composition has a bit of slacker rock touch, bringing
Dinosaur Jr to mind, with fewer guitar layers, but more melodic and with vocally
passionate J Mascis echoes.

Get on board.

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

Artists: THURSTON MOORE and BONNER KRAMER
Who: The former Sonic Youth legend and fellow underground
veteran, formerly known as just plain Kramer.

Track: INSIGHT
A Joy Division cover of a song from their debut LP, Unknown Pleasures. It’ll close the collaborative album from the duo, titled They Came Like Swallows – Seven Requiems For The Children Of Gaza, which will land on May 1st.

Moore: “Kramer had the idea to cover a Joy Division tune. It was a left turn from the improvisations we had been tracking. I clearly remember what I felt when I first heard
the original. It was a masterpiece. A stroke of pure artistic genius.”

TUTV: Moore/Kramer slow the song down a bit, stick to
Hooky‘s shadowy bass line, with smooth vocals all over it.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 11 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

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

Have fun.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Artist: PIG
Who: The moniker of British
dark-Goth-wave crusader
Raymond Watts

Track: TOSCA’S KISS Lead single of his upcoming LP,
named Hurt People Heart, which will drop on May 22nd.

TUTV: PIG hammers fiercely again. Herculean bass-synth smacks control this
mid-tempo, industrial-spiced tomahawk. A brain-breaking blaster for nasty
nightmares.

Instagram – Facebook
——————————————————————————————————————————-


By Ay Eye

Act: BRIAN AND THE ONIONS
Who: A project of no fixed members, but emerging
as a duo to release this reactive stonker.

Track: SMALL BOATS

TUTV: Brian and The Onions don’t waste time. They produce a ton of decibels from the get-go. They move and groove with sturdy doggedness, mulled with in-your-face vocals. And you can scream-along to the chanty chorus. Rock ‘n’ rap-punk roll rules. Think Sleaford Mods with their amps way up.

Instagram – Facebook
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: THE ACTIONS
Who: duo from Bristol, UK.

Track: TAKE MORE
Their first release since their
2021 debut album Flourish.

“Take More is a song about growing up in the suburbs. It captures nights spent twisting your mind over the future, caught between staying with the people you love and the need to escape, struggling to find anything that breaks the loop.”

TUTV: Imagine Hole fronted by Joan Jett. Bitchy, right? You betcha. This is a knife-edged stormer, vitalized by buzzing guitars and non-stop pushing drum beats, while the male action of the duo jumps in for some vocal assistance. Wanna have fun partying downtown? Take more and hit the floor.

Instagram –
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Artist: MY LO-FI HEART
Who: The project of electro-pop songwriter
Ian Turley from Sheffield, UK.

Track: WE CAN’T FALL

“It’s a song about the ecstasy of being in love, the feeling that floating on air, of being so close that you can feel the pulse of your heart when looking into the eyes of your special person. The sensation of spinning and spiralling higher with a rush of feelings which won’t ever stop, you won’t come down.”

Music is less about perfection and more about atmosphere: letting the imperfections,
haze, and repetitions create a space where you drift with your emotions.”

TUTV: Pop techno for crowded dancefloors in sweaty nightclubs. If your body doesn’t vibrate when We Can’t Fall enters your eager ears, you need to consult your shrink or change your medication. Anyway, invite your lover for a wild night out in the city and
let the adrenaline take over.

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

Band: MEET THE FAWKERS
Who: Blues rockers from
Galway, Ireland.

Track: TOO MEAN TO DIE

“Too Mean To Die’ leans into the great country/blues tradition of storytelling,
as we are let into a conversation reflecting on poor choices and our protagonist’s frustration with their station in life and despite this their choice to keep showing
up and working on.”

TUTV: Wowzers. Musing Americana blues rock the Irish way, delivered with hearty
passion. Weeping guitars back the star in the middle, the vocalist’s voice. He energises
this mid-tempo torch cracker with his stupendous pipes.

Too Mean To Die shows that the burning genre is far from being passé. When
performed like here, your heart and soul get touched and moved. Excellent effort.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 10 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

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

All for your aural pleasure.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Band: TWISTED TEENS
Who: 2 garage punk dropouts
from New Orleans.

Track: CIRCUS CLOWN
Cut from their new, 2nd LP,
called Blame The Clown

Track: CIRCUS CLOWN

TUTV: These New Orleans motherrockers move ‘n groove with tenacious
vigor. They don’t fool around, they entertain your ears and body with
confident swagger. They ramble and they rattle. They rule.

Enter the circus here.


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

Artist: ROB ZOMBIE
Who: The notorious and bombastic metal rock shocker, born
Robert Bartleh Cummings, has been destroying stereos since 1985.

Track: BLACK RAT COFFIN
Nasty slice from his brand
new LP The Great Satan.

TUTV: After all his crazy years, Zombie still comes up
with industrial-rock dynamized headbangers like this
dirty drone-drone-drone rat-race.

Helter-skelter!


.
Instagram – Linktree
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: DOPAMINE FIX
Who: Fresh-Irish indie duo who’s manifesto says a lot about them:
“With a nod to the Dadaists, we create Post Punk, Experimental and
Electronica which aims to unnerve, to disturb and to question.”

Track: REAL

“This piece speaks from inside the aftermath: after the damage, after the noise,
when certainty has begun to fail. In a world shaped by artificial intelligence, disinformation and continuous media manipulation, perception is no longer shared. Reality becomes something assigned rather than lived.”

TUTV: Dopamine Fix offer a voltaic, jump-up-and-down earworm
that bangs and booms from start to finish, like disco legends Erasure
with a punky vibe. Trust me, they’re for real, and they produce real
sonic stimulants.

Play that funky music, here and now.

Instagram
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: CAPE CRUSH
Who: Power-emo rockers
from Boston, MA.

Track: PLACE MEMORY
New piece from their new,
forthcoming album.

Ali Limpkin (vocalist and guitarist): “The term ‘Place Memory’ is the supernatural theory that a place can hold an energetic memory, like when you hear ghostly footsteps or a disembodied voice, that perhaps you’re not hearing something intelligent, you’re hearing a repeat of that memory played back to you as if on tape. Or maybe you’re hearing your sister on the other side of the veil? The song talks about the choice we don’t make becoming a sister ship bound for a different route. One that we can only wave at from the shoreline.”


Design credit: Katie Scarlett @katie.scarlett

TUTV: Who said indie guitar pop is dead? Go away. On second thoughts stay
and try to not lose yourself in this 6-string whirlwind steaming all over you.
You will fail.

Cape Crush rush and race rivetingly with no intention to slow down
on their swift run. One word. Electromagnetic. I told you, doubters.
Listen and get my drift.

Applause! Applause!

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: TELENOVA
Who: Dreamy guitar pop
trio from Malbourne, AU.

Track: EMPIRE
Piece from their brand new
full-length The Warning.

TUTV: Here’s a feather-light pop tune for a sunny spring,
colored with sparkly guitar riffs, sweet mixed emotions
vocals and a head-nodding beat.

Bubbly. Bouncy. Breezy.

Band: NOTHING
Who: Philly shoegazers,
shoegazing since 2010.

Track: NEVER COME NEVER MORNING
The final single from their 6th LP, named
A Short History Of Decay, landing this Friday.

TUTV: Forcible guitar/drum/bass dynamics dominate this,
both a pretty melodic and capricious jam, having your aural
attention all the way. Shoe-pop-gaze excellence.

Band: LIFE
Who: Audacious post-punks
from Hull, UK.

Track: THE DOLLYWAGON
New piece from their upcoming 4th longplayer, called Abstract / Natural.
It’ll hit our stereos on June 19th. Tracklist and more details here.

Mezz Sanders-Green (frontman): “‘The Dollywaggon”s universal theme
is about letting go and moving on – new adventures and beginnings. I wrote
the lyrics whilst doing a long-distance walk, turning what I saw into characters
and scenes.”

TUTV: LIFE go fast-forward, full steam ahead from the first second and never look back. Their intoxicating buzz is motorized by a salvo of riffs, persistent drumming, and adrenaline-pumping vocals. They slow down somewhere in the middle, but don’t worry, it’s the harbinger for an abalaze climax.

Classy corker.

Instagram – Bandcamp

Band: DEADLETTER
Who: Reckless and adventurous
alt indies from the UK.

Track: AMONG US
Single from their sophomore album, baptized
Existence Is A Bliss. Out this Friday.

TUTV: These fast-rising mavericks excel in constructing orchestral, post-punk
symphonies, enriched with some steamy saxophone glow, in 3 and a half minutes
as they show again here on this wowing belter.

Sax it up right here.

Band: LEZARD
Who: Flamboyant Belgian
guitar pop team.

Track: COLTRANE & XTC
Opener from their brand new album,
titled Que Se Passe-t-il (What’s happening).

zippy vocals.

E-cstatic stunner.

Band: GOGOL BORDELLO
Who: International gypsy-punk rock crew
from Manhattan, NY going nuts since 1999.

Track: LIFE IS POSSIBLE AGAIN
Piece from their brand new LP, their 7th,
called We Mean It, Man!

TUTV: These get-up-and-move oldtimers still party hard with gingery,
singalong chants, like this one. Hurry over to their bordello and celebrate
life like you mean it, man!

Here! Now!

violence EP, titled DAYS OF ASH, featuring 6 songs.

TUTV: I wondered when Bono would jump on the fence and critise, rightfully so, all BS going on right now in the US. Here he is with his mates translating their dissatisfaction with Trump’s Ubermensch politics into a raucous rocker.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 8 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

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

All for your aural pleasure.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Artist: LEG PUPPY 2.0
Who: Seasoned techno freak from London who has released a ton
of longplayers (so far). Take a day off and move over to Spotify to
check out as many as possible.

Track: LANYARD MAN

Press info: “It’s is a raw, heartfelt tale of ageism and fear. Set against a modern landscape of automation, algorithms & A.I., the story follows the quiet devastation of a loyal employee cast aside after 30 years of service. His decades of dedication are reduced to a final, hollow reward: A commemorative 30-year lanyard, symbolic of a system that no longer values human lives beyond their utility.”

TUTV: As my therapist once said: rich company owners are psychos. No morals,
no respect, no tolerance. Workers are tools abused to help them make even more rich.
Leg Puppy 2.0 translates this ongoing criminality into a brain-breaking midtempo techno club-hammer. It easily could be the theme song for George Orwell‘s yet-to-be-made
‘1984‘ movie.

“Thirty years,
then told goodbye,
replaced by code,
he wants to die”

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

Band: STEREOLAB
Who: Angelo-French electro-pop vets (1990–2009, 2019–present).
So far, they have released 11 LPs, with 2025’s Instant Holograms
On Film as the most recent one.

Track: CLOUD LAND

TUTV: On their last tour, they sold exclusively a 7″ vinyl single featuring two new
songs. They have put them online now so everyone can enjoy. Cloud Land is my
favorite. It’s a pretty swirling dance-oriented tune spiced with layers of synths.


.
Instagram
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Artist: FRED AGAIN…
Who: Acclaimed English record producer, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist,
and DJ, born Frederick John Philip Gibson. He has recorded/released 4 albums so far.

Over the past few months, he has presented two songs/music videos under the banner “Brandon’s night out” featuring the nightlife adventures of actor Brandon Bendell.

Track: LIGHT BURN DIMMER.
The 3rd and final song of his ‘Brandon’s
Nights Out’ trilogy with Jamie T on vocals.

TUTV: Holy Moses! Fred and Jamie are on
a bubbling techno roll. Great pairing for
a big banger.

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


 Photo Credit: Patrick Starsky Thomas

Band: WATERPISTOL
Who: South Welsh indie squad who got together in late 2022. Combining the guitar textures of ‘90s shoegaze with golden age rock ‘n’ roll, they have been firmly set on embodying their influences in The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The La’s, and Liverpool
cult favourites Shack.

Track: FELIN
The song touches on the highs and lows of the creative process. The first
glimpse of a wider collection of material already taking shape behind the
scenes.

TUTV: Expect a jumpy indie guitar flurry, bouncing left and right, forth and
back. Felin is a full of vim-and-vigour pop tune invigorated by jangly guitars,
a tight drum/bass tandem, and reaching a climax every time the multi-voiced
chorus pops up.

Play that funky music, Waterpistol.


.
Instagram – Facebook
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Artist: KYE ALFRED HILLING
Who: Singer-songwriter from
Tacoma, Washington.

Track: OUR REMAINING PIG
New taster from his upcoming 9th full-length,
called The All-Night Costume Company.
More info here.

Press info: “The song pushes deeper into Hillig’s emotional terrain, pairing alternative-country and indie rock with a writer’s instinct for metaphor, restraint, and uncomfortable honesty.”

KAH: “I drew a man on his family farm wading across a river toward the final living pig, knowing he had to slaughter it. You can tell he doesn’t want to do this, but sometimes the
hard thing is exactly what must be done.”

TUTV: Arresting from the start. KAH’s puissant Americana voice and the song’s rock-solid Mellencamp flow merge seamlessly together, resulting in a stem-winding gem. Both electric and absorbing.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 7 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Hello, music junkies.

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

All for your aural pleasure.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Artist: KIM GORDON

Track: DIRTY TECH
New piece from her 3rd full-length in 6 years,
titled Play Me. It’ll drop on March 13th. More
info here.

“I was kind of musing about, is my next boss going to be an AI chatbot? We’re the first ones whose lights are going to go out — not the tech billionaires. It’s so abstract that people can’t comprehend.”

TUTV: Former Sonic Youth icon has found her niche as a solo artist. She experiments with synths, loops, overdubs, and other studio tricks, as she does also here again with this 2nd taster from the upcoming 3rd album, appropriately and sarcastically titled Dirty Tech.

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

Band: BLEACHERS
Who: The moniker of American multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter
Jack Antonoff, who worked under several other aliases and who composed
4 soundtracks, so far, too.

Track: YOU AND FOREVER
The first single from his forthcoming 5th longplayer, titled
Everyone For Ten Minutes, out 22nd May. More info here.

“An optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful.”

TUTV: Bleachers always make me think a bit of Beirut and vice versa.
Both create relaxing atmospherics with multi-layered tunes, inventively
constructed, like Jack Antonoff shows here once more with this new
glorious pop symphony.

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

Artists:
Damon Albarn (Blur/Gorillaz),
Grian Chatten (Fontaines D.C.)
and Kae Tempest.

Track: FLAGS

One of the 23 tracks performed by big-name bands/artists on a new album,
named Help, with all benefits going to War Child. An organisation that shapes
systems that protect and support the well-being of children affected by conflict.

The record is out on March 6th. More info here.

War Child UK: Website
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: THE ORIELLES
Who: 3 thrilling indies
from West Yorkshire, UK.

Track: TEARS ARE
Newest single from album #5, named Only You Left.
It’ll come our way on March 13th. Order info here.

Esmé Hand-Halford (bassist/vocalist) about the song: “You could think of
something deeply human. But you could also answer it in a completely linguistic
sense and think of a tear as a symbol or an image.”

TUTV: Near-whispering vocals and musing thoughts about tears
surrounded by creaking guitars until the long acoustic outro.

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

Band: GLADIE
Who: Galvanizing indies from
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Track: BRACE YOURSELF
From their third LP, titled No Need To Be Lonely.
Out March 20th. Tracklist and more info here.

TUTV: A hopped-up guitar jam going fast forward,
dumping you in a whirlpool of fuzzy electricity.

📸 Tina Gross

Band: THE DARTS
Who: Steamy garage Amazons based in Seattle, Washington,
fronted by charismatic singer-songwriter Nicole Laurenne.

Track: APOCALYPSE
The 2nd shared piece forthcoming LP, their 6th, named
Halloween Love Songs. It’s out on March 3rd.

TUTV: Jumpy. Bouncy. Zippy. Cacophonic overtones, frolic organ blitz, sinewy vocals and psychobilly guitars drenched in an Eastern frenzy, blast out of your stereo. If this is what the Apocalypse will sound like, I wanna be there. Trust me, so will you.

Instagram – Website – All Albums
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: KASABIAN
Who: English rock vets
from Leicester.

Track: RELEASE THE PRESSURE
Co-written with Calvin Harris.

TUTV: Kasabian turned from dance-infused rockers into disco-popsters under the leadership of singer-songwriter Sergio Pizzorno. Lots of drum/bass action on this
new one. Shaky stuff.

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

Artist: LEO VINCENT
Who: Brussels-based, failed goalkeeper-turned-painter-turned-cameraman-turned-musician. Some say it’s disco for night janitors. Some say it’s glam-rock for ravers.
Others haven’t found the time to listen yet because they have real jobs.

Track: LOVE ISN’T EASY

TUTV: Oh yeah, the vibes! Oh yeah, the beats! Oh yeah, the swagger! Shake your pelvis, bend your knees and jump up and down, left and right, forth and back. This is a workout tune for all you lazy bumps out there. Move! Now!

Instagram – Bandcamp
——————————————————————————————————————————-


Promo photo

Band: SWIM DEEP
Who: Longtime-running indie
rockers out of Birmingham, UK.

Track: PIECES OF YOU
First single from their upcoming
5th LP, titled Hum. Out June 19th.

TUTV: Swim Deep know a thing or two about spellbinding psychedelic
pop as they show here once again with some early Stone Roses flair.

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

Band: MONT LOSER
Who: A deformed creature born from the depths of a late-night Parisian haze, half kamikaze, half blood-drunk bat. ML invite you to dive headfirst into the void of a rock scene that always seems to rise from its ashes, when we sometimes wish it would stay dead.

Track: CONFESSIONAL
The title track from their upcoming
album, out on April 17th.  

“It’s only reality tv confessionals — people alone in a booth, crying to
the camera, saying things they probably never meant to say out loud.”

TUTV: Psychotic guitars, chaotic screams, mindbending verve and headtwisting changes of speed combine for a roasting 5-minute rollercoaster. Be ready for a dizzying experience.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 6 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Another year, another Jukebox to fill with new
tracks, 5 twice a week, for your aural pleasure.

This is the 9th batch of 5 new rad ones of 2026.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK


Andrew Falkous – Brussels 2025 – Photo by Turn Up The Volume

Band: MCLUSKY
Who: Welsh notorious post-punk noiseniks
featuring Andrew Falkous from tumultuous
turbo Future Of The Left.

Track: I KNOW COMPUTER
New piece from an upcoming mini album.
It follows last year’s flabbergasting full-length
The World Is Still Here And So Are We.


Single artwork

TUTV: Vintage Mclusky clatter. Bass and guitar have
a fiery fight, and Falkous spits and sneers as we are
used to for a long time.

Slam-bang hullabaloo.

Instagram – Spotify

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: PUNCHBAG
Who: Revved up brother-sister duo from South London,
colliding the raw unfiltered energy of punk, with the overflowing
ecstasy of pop. Last year they released their red-hot debut EP
I’m Not Your Punchbag.

Track: I’M OBSSESED
Piece from their 2nd EP,
out April 10th.

“It’s about being completely obsessed with something or someone,
but not in a cute way, more in a ‘your whole body is under attack’
kinda way. It’s sort of disordered, chaotic, overwhelming.”.

TUTV: Another scathing sucker-punch from these pumped-up siblings.
I’m Obssesed is a mid-tempo cry-out with a shrieking, multi-vocal chorus.

Striking stroke.

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

Band: HUNGRY
Who: Unabated guitar energized
team from Manchester, UK.

Track: CAMBRIDGE IS ON FIRE

Jacob Peck (frontman/lyricist): “ The song expresses our frustrations with
middle-class comforts, over-analysis without action, nimbyism, intellectual
cowardice as a stand-in for material change and all too easy deference to
business and power.

TUTV: These Manchester punk dropouts hit hard. All greedy sharks in
our collapsing society better run and hide. Hungry go on a roasting rampage,
powered by a propulsive bass/drum tandem, neurotic guitars, and berserk
vocals.

Ferocious uppercut.

Instagram – Facebook
——————————————————————————————————————————-

Band: STEVE
Who: Belgian noise/industrial/hip-hop outfit who
released their 5-track debut EP Not A Person in 2024.

Track: I’M NOT DEAD
Brand new single.

It captures the feeling of barely surviving in an over-stimulated, hostile world,
where sleep is the only refuge and being “not dead” feels like the only victory left.

TUTV: Creepy vocals dominate this draggy-paced trauma, causing a bone-chilling experience. Think early Einstürzende Neubauten. There’s an almost unbearable
tenseness in the air from start to finish.

I’m Not Dead sounds like the theme song of a horror movie with a vicious
snake sneaking towards its helpless prey. Watch under your bed before
you go to sleep.

Mind-boggling.

Instagram Spotify
——————————————————————————————————————————-


Crédits : Charlotte Pneumonie

Artist: BIRTAWIL
Who: Solo project of French musician
Xavier Godart who played in some bands
before.

Track: SENTO
New single from his upcoming album Dua Min.
Out on 27 February. More info here.

TUTV: Relentless percussion, industrial shockwaves, and blood-curdling guitars
push this nightmarish trip to hellish places. Sento is a hypnotic, instrumental jam,
both freakish and mind-bending.

Spookish score.

JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 5 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

Posted on by JL

Probably the only playlist that matters

Another year, another Jukebox to fill with new
tracks, 5 twice a week, for your aural pleasure.

This is the 7th batch of 5 new rad ones of 2026.

ALL TOGETHER

TRACK BY TRACK

Band: DEAD DADS CLUB
Who: New project of Chilli Jesson who was the frontman of
former British guitar pop group Palma Violets (2011-2016).

Track: THAT’S LIFE
Piece from their most gripping,
brand new self-titled debut LP.

TUTV: This mid-tempo, guitar power pop anthem’s intensity is astonishing.
Inflamed emotions, galvanic outpouring, deep-felt vocals. Formidable performance.
This is what’s sonic life is about.

Goosebumps.

Band: THE FAIR ATTEMPTS
Who: A dystopian force – Timo Haakana and his wife Starwing – from Finland who merge raw, driving rhythms with haunting melodies, exploring the human condition in a future where technology, control, and alienation intertwine.

Track: GHOST WITHIN

“Ghost Within” examines the internal monsters: negative self-talk, doubts, pride before collapse, and the subtle ways the human mind feeds on its own fear. The song portrays self-awareness as a mirror maze, where reflection offers no clear exit.

TUTV: This pumping, new-wavish synth stomper causes head spins from the kick-off.
Ghost Within sticks immediately with its orchestral melodrama, darksome goth echoes, stirring vocals and high-octane chorus.

Slam-bang.

Artists: SKYRACER
Who: British synth-wave
rock duo from Sheffield.

Track: LAST TOKEN
Their 8th single.

TUTV: Synth-rock pandemonium with industrial NIN droning. Heavy-duty electropunk to sway yourself dizzy to. Last Token never loses its persistent grip. Booming beats crush your stereo. Trust me, it’s worth the damage.

Bang-on tune.

Band: VIRGINS
Who: Belfast-based
shoegaze indies.

Track: CRUCIBLE
From their upcoming, final release.
A 4-track EP, named Light The Space Left Behind.
Out on February 19th. More info here.

TUTV: Sad news. This compelling indie shoezegaze collective call it a day after 5 years.
Their debut album nothing hurt and everything was beautiful made Turn Up The Volume a fan. This both manic-guitar-propelled and melodic jam, spiced with crystalline vocals, is an arresting harbinger for the band’s goodbye.

Virgins didn’t hurt, everything they did was beautiful.

Artists: WAYWARD VINE
Who: Acoustic collective – Valerie Rachel and Greg Lawrence – exploring the human condition and the world around us. Our music probes themes of love, heartbreak, obsession, and social justice.

Track: THE FALL
The title track of their notable debut
album. You can stream it here.

TUTV: This enchanting reverie is so welcome in these messed-up times. Back to nature, where you can enjoy tranquility and reload your mind with basic normality. Touching piano play, some harmonica warmth, some violin nostalgia, acoustic guitar melancholy, bass and drum smoothness and hearty vocals paint a bittersweet symphony visualized now in a new, sepia-colored video.

Enrapturous.
