Band: STRANGE PLANTS Who: A Canadian outfit rooted in vintage psychedelia. Their self-titled debut LP,
released last year draws influences from artists like MGMT and Jack White, while
remaining faithful to classic icons such as Pink Floyd and Supertramp. You can
stream it here.
Track: LAY YOUR MIND
The first release in a forthcoming collection
of songs arriving throughout 2026.
Press info: “At its core, the song serves as a love letter to the steady figures in our lives, the people who absorb chaos with patience and understanding. The title reflects that sense of emotional grounding, celebrating those who remain present when everything else feels uncertain.”
TUTV: Brannon‘s stirring, delirious, and superb vocals are going through the roof
and lift this powerful pop thrill to an outstanding and overwhelming level. He’s backed
by an unshakeable rhythm section and startling guitars that start to flip out midway. Imposing tune. Towering execution. Striking stroke.
Band: PUNCHBAG Who: A new electrifying brother-sister duo, from South London colliding the raw unfiltered energy of punk, with the overflowing ecstasy of pop. With fierce tempos and ferocious energy, their music is an explosively cathartic release of raw intensity and unapologetic fun.
TUTV: If you start your musical escapade with this kind of steaming synth-pop
stormer, it won’t take long before you will be the new talk of the town. Punchbag
go nuts on their first left/right uppercut, motorized by a hopped-up electro engine.
Nightclub exultation for party animals. And if you don’t like
this burst of exuberance, you know what do to. FUCK IT.
Band: ISABELLA STRANGE Who: 4 hungry indie Scots who came together during lockdown.
The group’s moniker comes from the name of an ancestor from
the 1700s, of guitarist/vocalist Kira Wolfe-Murray.
TUTV: Fiery riot grrrl Wolfe-Murray leads the troops on this blazing roller coaster
debut that bounces forth and back with a sinewy swagger. She gets sassy support
from her three partners in crime while she, herself, comes up with some razorblade
guitar riffs and a crushing chorus completes the steamy sonic picture.
Matt Brannon (bandleader) It’s about that painful disconnection in a relationship—when someone is living a double life but refuses to admit it, even after it’s over. The song started with that personal story but grew into something much bigger, reflecting on the tension between authenticity and secrecy”.
TUTV: Get up, stand up and fight for your right to shake your booty.
Some Freak Le Chic riffs, echoes from New YorkCity‘s indie legends The Rapture and energetic vocals will trigger your craziest dance
moves.
Artist: RIVAL QUEENS Who: The solo project of British guitarist Sally-Anne Hickman
who has played as a session and live guitarist with many bands
over the years.
Offering a message of unity and understanding, it’s the first track to be
shared from her upcoming debut EP Crown and Conquer. Think L7 and Hole.
TUTV: Not Your Enemy swings forth and back with a sucker-punch chorus fighting
its way up front for several times. Hickman‘s intimidating phrasing makes her message crystal clear. You don’t want to have her as your enemy.
Smyth: “I constantly feel like I am rushing towards the inevitable infinite oblivion. Further exacerbated by the marking of years spent circling the sun. To that end, it’s important that
I fill the time remaining with joyous, creative acts. The sharing of ideas is an essential part
of that, which brings us to Silk.”
TUTV: It sounds as if Silk tries to produce as many electrical shoegaze layers as legendary
experts My Bloody Valentine used to fabricate. A huge tidal wave of guitar vibrancy creates a transcendental resonance, and camouflages the hazy vocals. Faze drags you into a spacey place where you have never been. Yes, very intriguing indeed.
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 that matters.
For a couple of years now TUTV added 10 new tracks every 7 days.
This year we will put 5 new ones in the Jukebox twice a week.

Band: SUCK Who: Ferocious punks
from Kassel, Germany.
Track: GIMME GABBA GABBA
Piece from their upcoming debut EP
out on March 14th. Pre-order info here.
TUTV: Holy smoke! Right from the blistering start, these punk motherockers trash and
slash your shocked stereo speakers. Nasty vocals, psychotic guitars with a Slash-like solo burning holes in your ears. No rest for the wicked. Watch your back, Amyl & The Sniffers.
Gimme Suck Suck!

Band: CLUTTER Who: Full-energized indies
from Stockholm, Sweden.
Track: KRAUT
From their upcoming debut EP Loves You,
out on 11 April. More info here.
TUTV: From the get-go a rotating guitar riff and repetitive drum beat sneak
and creep under your skin until the very end. Kraut grooves and improves unstoppably, while eager vocals roll over its hypnotic flow. Your head spins around and all your other limbs join the ride on the spot. Bonkers speedball.
TUTV: Spooky groove, mind-smashing velocity, creepy vocals.
High-voltage electricity that triggers your adrenalin production.
Helter-skelter. This is sick stuff to scare your parents and greedy
Brex-shit politicians with.
TUTV: You probably think what Bryan Adams is doing here
amidst all the juvenile misfits producing lots of havoc. Simply
because the Canadian rock old-timer dropped this badass
barnstormer.
