BAXTER DURY revealed details of his new, upcoming album. His 8th one,
baptized Allbarone and it will show up on September 12th. More info here.

Dury about the album: “It’s kind of a character arc that goes through the whole thing,
two personalities. It’s very critical of people, this album, whoever they are, maybe some
bloke with a moustache and sockless loafers in Shoreditch or a fat old Chiswick gangster lording it up in a really comfortable middle class part of London”

“I don’t want to say it’s contemporary. Because I sound like a cunt using that word.
But it does sound really contemporary. It doesn’t sound like a Harrods hamper band
made it. It doesn’t sound like a band made it all. Which is what I wanted most of all.
It’s just something that’s brand new for me. It’s quite exciting, really.”

Along with the announcement comes the first appetizer.
It’s the pretty awesome title track. What a badass bass
belter it is.

Wake up people
and jump onto
Dury‘s gondola.

PANIC SHACK – Welsh Whirlwind Punkettes Have A ‘GIRL BAND STARTER PACK’ For You

Posted on by JL

Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine

1 May 2025

Band: PANIC SHACK
Who: 4 pop punkettes from Wales. In 2022 they
released their 6-track debut EP Baby Shack.

New single: GIRL BAND STARTER PACK

“It’s had many deaths and rebirths but has been with us since the start, so it’s quite special
to us. Not only because we’ve watched it morph into a certified banger (it was once named ‘Banger Potential’) but because it personifies our friendship and the electricity we feel when we’re together, whether that’s creating, playing or simply just grabbing a coffee, which as
the song foretells, usually leads to a voddy.”


Album artwork

It’s the 2nd shared piece from their forthcoming
self-titled debut LP. It’s out on July 18th.

Wake up people, this Welsh whirlwind
will punk ‘n’ roll all over you.

Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine

29 April 2025

Band: THE BETHS
Who: Guitar pop outfit from New Zealand with 3 full lengths
on their résumé, with 2022’s Expert In A Dying Field as the
most recent one.

New single: METAL
Their first new music
in 3 years.

Elizabeth Stokes (vocalist/guitarist): “‘Metal’ is a song about being alive and existing in a human body. For parts of the last few years, I kind of felt like my body was a vehicle that had carried me pretty well thus far but was breaking down, something I had little to no control over.

And despite all the ways that my body feels like a broken machine, I still marvel at
the complexity of such a machine. I can hold that knowledge in one hand, and yet
with the other hand I can point to my reflection and just be like ‘you are shit’. Or ‘ugly.’
Or ‘worthless.’

Wake up people,
and follow your
body.

YUNGBLUD Detonates A Second Time On New Belter ‘LOVESICK LULLABY’

25 April 2025

As all his fans already know for some weeks British showy indie biggie YUNGLBUD
has canned his full length number four. But they still don’t know when it’ll appear.

Yungblud told NME about the new one: “I’ve been listening to a lot of, old-old school music, going back to people like Bonnie Raitt and Linda Ronstadt and Led Zeppelin and kind of even Elton John,” he added. “Rock is my genre. I feel like I’ve been dabbling in many different things and trying to twist rock, but I feel like at the minute it’s exciting because rock music feels spherical… it needed to sound big, it needed to sound cinematic.”

New Track: LOVESICK LULLABY It’s the 2nd single, following
the astonishing 9-minute first one Hello Heaven, Hello.

Yungblud: “Making this song was a f*cking party and you can hear that on the recording.
I tried to let my subconscious do a lot of the talking and then make sense of my words the following afternoon in a kitchen, hungover, eating fish and chips with a cup of tea.

I’ve been on
a journey trying to find meaning in different places all over the world, for which I am forever grateful, but it felt as though my feet left the ground a little too much and I had
to bring myself back to British music, to British art and culture.”

Wake up people, lullaby
or not, Yungblud rocks his
ass off.
