Quiet Please Here Comes ‘THE END OF THE WORLD ‘ By WHERE WE SLEEP

Posted on by JL

Daily fuel to load your sonic batteries…

2 October 2020

Last year WHERE WE SLEEP, the solo project of British artist BETH RETTIG
made a captivating impression with touching debut EP Experiments In The Dark.

And today she dropped a new haunting meditation on Bandcamp.

If you were looking for a song that reflects these surreal science-fiction-like times,
then THE END OF THE WORLD is the one that fits 2020 perfectly. It’s a slow-burning electro-scape, both ominous and menacing although Rettig‘s shadowy voice resonates
as she wants to comfort the person(s) – close one(s) – who’s/are angry and scared.

Before you’re aware of it the enigmatic reverie vanishes in the silence, like a ghost.

Buy/stream this nightdream on Bandcamp…

Wow! It’s almost two years since L.A.’s burning turbo DEAP VALLY released their second album Femejism. A blazing powerhouse, yet more varied than pure explosive dynamite debut Sistrionix. But, after a most surprising and appealing acoustic intermezzo, the cracking tandem of Lindsey Troy and Julie Edwards, now returns with a totally fresh smack. On GET GONE the ladies roar, roll, rumble and rattle like never before. There’s definitely a new whirling sonic edge. Like if the turbulent ladies mixed some sultry surf sequences with a dose of nasty The Cramps psychobilly, and injected the rowdy result with wicked garage energy and boiling blues rawness to pump it all up into a demonic uppercut that hits all
of your senses, directly. This clamorous crackerjack sounds ace. Hundred seconds of blistering hullabaloo. A tremendous bang-up. Press the button and check out the heat
for yourself right here, right now…

Posted on by JL

23 March 2018

VIOLET is a young, exciting squad out of England‘s Midlands. The 5-piece debuted last year with impressive striking track ‘Feel‘. And with today’s brand new single JADED they are knocking loudly on that big gate of fame. Singer/guitarist Luke Brickett Haycock said in a press statement that the song’ “was written in a trance-like state where it all just kind of blossomed from out of nowhere one night. It’s about that feeling when something, whatever
it is, gets ingrained and stuck in your head but you just want it gone and it doesn’t leave…”

JADED has all sonic ingredients of an epic masterstroke. It’s a tower of a captivating symphony. Tremendous shoegaze guitars build a wall-of-mind-boggling-sound and
elevate your subconsciousness to an ecstatic level of pure phantasy from the very start. And soon after frontman Haycock‘s impassioned voice kicks in you’re floating towards the very heart of the song: a stupendous, anthemic chorus that sticks instantly. Wow! Double Wow! Very big step for this highly talented team. Turn it up, folks, right here, right now…

New album ‘Beyondless‘ by Danish noiseniks ICEAGE will be out early May. And today the band just shared another special taster off that upcoming LP.

A military-like drum beat starts the obscure trip and goes on like forever while scintillating guitars and a glimmering violin paint shadowy clouds and on top of it all there’s frontman Elias Bender Rønnenfelt‘s haunting vox dominating intensely this mind-blowing orchestration like a psychotic soul looking for redemption. Wow! A truly breathtaking experience. Here’s the audio clip…
