New Twentieth Century Swansea Sounds

Stellar Album New Twentieth Century LP by UK’s Swansea Sound is a force of indie pop nature to be reckoned with. Crisp, sleek, and summery, guitar driven indie rock. But before I delve into this record.. If you peruse my blog it seems like I might know what I’m talking about. Full disclosure : I really don’t. It just so happens I am around long enough to catch wind of Heavenly. Two members of…

Look Back Powerful Fucking Champs Red Fang

The Fucking Champs. Looking back to what might be June 7th 2007. The town is Philadelphia. The venue is Johnny Brenda’s. A perfect size venue. This is one of the handful shows I’ve seen at this place. As long as you can walk up the stairs you should have a good time. A gem on Frankford Ave. As far as photo archive goes, I have less pictures of these incredible bands than i thought. What can I do.…

24 Deep Discount Mark Down Sounds

24 Deep Discount Mark Down Sounds includes a track by Salt Lake City’s A Deeper Heaven. A new video from UK’s Swansea Sound. Prices deeply slashed but fun is amplified with visuals. Weighing in with a blend of genres from Seattle is New Age Healers. Take listen and let me know what you think they blend into their mix. Finally, Quiz Show. I love game shows, NJ, and am a low key fan of Shudder To…

Gigantic Night Of Living Hiss

Gigantic Night Of Living Hiss

Night of Living Hiss. Night of Living Fest coverage. Honoring the Day of the Dead plus bands. The year is 2016 I believe November 2nd. Yours truly gets wind of Night of the Living Fest in Tucson Arizona. What attracts me to this music fest is local Philly band Purling Hiss are headlining the last of the three night fest. If I am not fabricating things Ty Segal is also playing.. however at that…

Ultimate Best Public Enemy Patch

Ultimate Best Public Enemy Patch

Public Enemy patch. Traveling back to late 1980’s. Circa 1988 or 1989. In my opinion hip hop is in its golden age. Native tongues, Cold Chillin Records artists, and of course Public Enemy. Sure , I could continue listing artists and crews but that is not the gist of this piece. Also I am not trying to exclude artists. Simply taking us back in time. Before getting into that here is one of the best…

New Heavenly Wax, Banshees, Acid

New Heavenly Wax, Banshees, Acid

Hallows Eve or just about that time. Exposing three very different bands. Heavenly from the UK reissuing a classic LP on Skepwax Records. Mismiths. A befitting and peculiar mashup band out of Los Angeles. Great fun for the depressed ghouls. Lastly, from Hattiesburg Mississipi, MSPAINT. No , not a paint store as far as I know. Percussive synth driven hardcore with punk vocals. At least that is the…

22 Best ZZ Top Deep Cuts Part 1

22 Best ZZ Top Deep Cuts Part 1

ZZ Top top deep cut list. How does one choose from a band with so many LP’s, songs, and catalog that spans five decades? (I’ll pick a few honorable mentions, but still?) ZZ Top songs to soothe and celebrate. Certainly I am one out of millions that felt the crushing loss of Dusty Hill from ZZ Top. This piece starts very soon after Dusty’s transition was announced up until now. Fall 2022 and on .…

Exclusive Eating Details / Goodbye Ranger

Exclusive Eating Details / Goodbye Ranger

As you may not know, I don’t get out much. On September 3rd I decided to be different and check out a live show. I reckon it would be wrapped up early enough for me to be up bright and early the next day. After all I have walls to stare at. So the venue is Pho Cao in Scottsdale, Arizona. A cool spot where local bands play. Also doubling as a Vietnamese restaurant with a bar. The bands are…

Are You Dreaming Kind ? New Orchids

Orchids LP out September 2 on Skepwaxrecords !

Dreaming Kind ? I am. This LP is just for me and those who revel in daydreams. The Dreaming Kind may not have tons of reverb. It may not wander off into overdub landscapes such as My Bloody Valentine’s Loveless. However it is a formidable and enchanting indie record full of melodic pop. In a sentence? This LP is essential for fans of indie music. So promptly go here…

Grand Court Organ + New Soul Blind

Grand Court Organ + New Soul Blind

Grand Court Music. There is no shortage of new music to listen to. However despite all of it, I find it hard to hone in on the stuff that gets me excited. In other words stuff that I may be a fan of. Here are two exceptions. First is Staubitz and Waterhouse. Second is Soul Blind. For the same reason though. I am always wondering what they will do next. Staubitz and Waterhouse are far more…

Announcing Anatomy Class, Plastic, Violet Age

Announcing Anatomy Class, Plastic, Violet Age

Class ? No Class ? School’s out for Summer 2022. Anatomy Class is in though. At least in Meat Sheet Fanzine hemisphere it is summer. Elsewhere it may not be summer, give me a pass though. Here are some songs that will hopefully whisk us away to a better place. Night Sins. Darker, harder synth driven waveforms from percussionist Kyle of Nothing. Oog Bogo is a new found favorite. Sometimes bands…

New Night School, Juniper, and Orchids

New Night School, Juniper, and Orchids

Night School returns to attend classes with a song Juniper. Also another long awaited return for me is the Orchids from Glasgow. Alas, summer in Arizona is here. At least I have these cool songs and central air. Otherwise I’d have dehydration and or heat exhaustion. Without further rambling here is the music for your perusal. Night School – Juniper – Graveface Records and Curiosities Night…
