JUKEBOX 2025 – Week 33 Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week

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: SUNFLOWERS
Who: Disorderly trio from Portugal. They make noise like it’s a language of survival. Their sound blends blistering punk energy with layers of distortion, experimental chaos, and existential release — always teetering between catharsis and collapse.


New album artwork

Track: CHAMELEON KID
First shared single from their forthcoming 5th LP, titled
You Have Fallen… Congratulations!. More info right here.

The new album pinballs between noise rock, punk, warped psych,
and a sort of mangled pop sensibility. It’s loud and sharp-edged, but
with moments of eerie restraint, like falling through a trapdoor into
calm, then being hurled back into chaos.

TUTV: Blimey. Make sure you warn your neighbors that a sonic storm is coming,
before Chameleon Kid explodes on your wobbling stereo, to avoid that they call
the anti-decibels police. This jagged bass-drum-fueled juggernaut rushes and
races like a hopped-up hot rod on psychedelic steroids. Helter skelter!

Artists: ARTHUR BUCK
Who: R.E.M.’s Peter Buck and
singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur.

Track: SLEEP WITH ONE EYE OPEN
First single from their 2nd, collaborative
longplayer, landing on October 3rd.

Arthur: “To be the protector, or perhaps the paranoid partner?
This one introduces some wah-wah lead work by me, which becomes
a bit more prevalent as the album continues. Intense background
vocals by Corin Tucker from Sleater-Kinney and a welcome horn
section give it even more classic rock gravitas.”

TUTV: Titanic tune. It sounds like if a full
orchestra is at work. Bluesy, rocky, kicky.
A full-hearted feat.

Band: ALPINE SKIES
Who: Mutual friends, Kevin Homan and Darren Farrell from Dublin, Ireland. They discovered an instant creative chemistry that would soon unfold into what will be their debut album – an evocative, layered collection of songs shaped by wide skies, still landscapes, and inner journeys.

Track: WALLS
Only their 2nd single, following
their debut Be Your Side.

“Walls” holds the value of memories at its core. Valuing,
not loss or absence, but the fact that something ever was.

TUTV: This robust drums-propelled power pop stroke goes sky-high on
its adrenaline-infused chorus, strengthened by its engrossing vocality.
A rock-solid wall of a tune.

Artist: ZACH BRYAN
Who: Giant country rock star.

Track: BOWERY
It features family celebs Kings Of Leon
who took Bryan as support act on their
latest world tour.

Feel-good retro rocker
for all generations.

Band: WILD BABY
Who: Fresh Finnish
indie outfit.

Track: LETTERS
Debut single.

Info:Letters is a perfect introduction to the band’s music with it’s two lead vocalists singing in a dialogue in this melodic, storytelling dynamic track. The song is about two lovers far apart from each other, both in time and distance.”

TUYV: Americana the Finnish way. Dreamy harmonies, acoustic guitar sparks in front, melancholic melodiousness, impassioned vocals. Letters is a sepia-colored romantic musing that entices and enthralls quickly.
