Florence and the Machine

As Florence Welch (and her Machine) prepares for Glastonbury greatness, she has also been tantalising her audience with nuggets of her new, third album “How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful”.

Out this past Monday on Bravura Records, the label of London producers Kid Who and Andrew Yukon, was the new EP from TWINS, aka Matt Weiner. If you think you recognise that name, you’d probably be right – he’s the label owner at CGI Records and DKA Records. As well as producing music under his …

I certainly answwered in the affirmative when I reviewed the debut single from The Outdoor Type, ‘Are You Happy?’ at the beginning of this year. I went out on a limb as well, seeing a great future for this solo act working under the name The Outdoor Type. Well, The Outdoor Type has come up …

Priest (formerly XPriestX) released a brilliant EP, ‘Samurai’ from which we reviewed a couple of singles at Backseat Mafia last year as well as the EP itself. I feel guilty I have missed out on reviewing a few more recent singles that have since been released and that are going to be on their self-titled …

Ahead of their debut album Modern Phenomena, which drops on May 18th via Heist or Hit Records, Los Angeles quartet Northern American have released a taster in the shape of the albums title track. Its a follow-up to the bands 2013 EP Happiness Hungover, and was recorded at Red Rockets Glare Studio in Santa Monica …

I’m here, stuck in traffic, and yet, with a bit of sunshine outside and the new Brownish Black single Life Lessons, and you know what – life’s all ok here. The Portland based octet started out as a three-piece garage rock band, who have expanded and added a soul edge to their garage roots. Life …
