A couple of weeks ago fast-rising indie rockers THYLA,
out of Brighton, released euphoric single ‘LENOX HILL‘.

Turn Up The Volume wrote: “After a reflective first half ‘LENOX HILL‘ is catapulted in the air like a sizzling firecracker and explodes like a colorful flowers bouquet as if singer Millie Duthie has been freed from her demons, found her real self again and wants the whole world to know it. The joy of life triumphs in the end. Top stroke!”

though the good times and the love we shared live on in memory” says Lady Lazarus.

Who had ever thought that IGGY POP and MAC DEMARCO would work together?
Well it just happened, although not exactly musically as Pop just dropped a video for ‘SONALI‘, one of the jazzy/ambient tracks on his new, critically acclaimed album FREE
and it’s here that DeMarco comes in, as he directed the slightly creepy clip featuring, yes, lizard people. Pretty unexpected but successful collaboration.

Last September London‘s dance duo FERAL FIVE released their new single ‘EGO‘.

Turn Up The Volume called it a thumping banger, a physically irresistible knockout
that tackles monstrous egos. A middle finger for all ‘Me, Myself and I‘ narcissists,
and a blistering blessing for all those who want to swing themselves into a coma.

To keep the swirling momentum going the band now launched a special
‘EGO‘ video, a high-speed speed whirl of filming and 3D animation.

A couple of weeks ago Brighton‘s jagged trio LAZYBONES dropped – YES! – one

Turn Up The Volume experienced the missile as follows: “Hell bloody hell yeah! Here
comes some unstoppable blustery ferocity that will pump up your bloodstream’s flow from
the explosive start straight to the shaking finale. This is impetuous turbulence that races and pushes and rants without looking back. Tenacious trashy stuff indeed that will activate every single nerve in your heated body.”

To keep the smoking momentum going the band launched
a pretty cool video clip for their Trash Talk ripper. Watch here…

The late great JEFF BUCKLEY had his last recording session on 13 September 1996, one year before he died by drowning. One of the songs involved was titled ‘SKY BLUE SKIN’, a vintage Buckley meditation. It was one of the most sought-after rarities in the musician’s back catalogue, before it got a proper release as part of a new collection celebrating 25 years since the release of his only studio album ‘Grace’ back in August. An animated clip for the song, put together by animation studio Temple Cache, making use of images from sketchbooks and lyrics has been shared online now.

Impassioned London Trio HAVVK Shares Notable Clip For New Stirring Single ’52’…

12 October 2019

Band: HAVVK

Who: “Trio originally formed in London in 2014, and relocated to Berlin two summers ago.
The band initially evolved around Julie Hough’s solo project but evolved into a challenging
trio with more atmosphere, punch, and political edge than before.”

Track: 52 – newest single about “our experience of the growing political and social climate, and those who lead it. We hope that we start to celebrate and find the positives in what we share and makes us different rather than using them to drive a wedge between us.”

Score: What an all-powerful quit/Loud/quit outburst this is. Julie Hough‘s stupendous and passionately charged vox transfers this overall exuberant performance to a majestic level that already leaves a most notable mark after just one blood-curdling spin. A fabulous proof of how some artists can translate political commitment into an energized intensity able to affect affects the listener’s attention instantly. The accompanying clip fits perfectly well with the song’s overwhelming sensitivity.

Chicago Artist KATE SCHELL Moves With Lifelike Video Clip For Human Pearl ‘YOU AND YOUR SHADOW’…

Reflective reveries for the laziest day of the week…

15 September 2019

kate

Chicago based electro-folk/pop musician and singer KATE SCHELL (ex-Paper Thick Walls) released her second, intimate and delicate, album titled Past Present And Future last March.

For ‘YOU AND YOUR SHADOW‘, one of the most conspicuous reveries off her compelling LP she launched an engrossing clip. The airy-fairy music sounds like coming out of a music box with a wooden spinning ballerina. Both beatific and nostalgic like a self-made fantasy. The images on the other hand, sequences from a  psychiatric clinic, show how hard reality can be, at least for some of us: the depressing ones, the lost ones and the disheartened ones, always hoping for things to get better. Listen & watch right here, this is part of life…
