WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Fans of drinking pints and classic Electro compilations – this is a niche but perfect article for you! For the 40th anniversary of the legendary comps, there’s some special beer being brewed, and boy, the whole thing is handsome and great. The beer is made by Deviant & Dandy who are an independent brewery producing…

There’s a lot of doom-laden music knocking around at the moment. The magnificent and downright frightening Lankum have a new LP out and culty GOAT have been weirding everyone out again. Now, it’s the turn of Dorthia Cottrell who has a creeptacular psychedelic track out called ‘Harvester’. You assume this isn’t about filling your boots…

These K-Pop bands are a massive, multi-million dollar business and on one hand, it’s great to see young pop fans getting into music that is spoken in something that isn’t English. However, there’s a big problem – what’s with all the Nazi stuff?! The most recent news concerns Chaeyoung who is a member of Twice.…

If you asked ‘Missy who?’ after reading that headline, then maybe this isn’t the website for you. Anyway, there’s been a lot of noise around FLO this past year, and Pop Justice’s Peter Robinson is a fan and genuinely, that’s something you should always take notice of. They won a BRIT Award, so they’re absolutely…

Initially, this article was just going to be a video of a very tired, very angry baby. We bailed on the idea, because that one time someone reviewed a Jet LP with nothing more than a video of a chimp drinking it’s own piss was effectively the pinnacle of that kind of thing, and has…

BONGZILLA. Just read that name back. It’s great isn’t it? Read that on a festival line-up, and you’re taking notice aren’t you? Handily, it perfectly captures their sound too – thick, heavy doom psychedelic rock. They’ve got a new song out which does exactly what you want to it to, called ‘Hippie Stick’, and they’ll…

Goat released a behemoth of an LP called ‘Oh Death’ much to everyone’s surprise, and now they’re surprising us all again with a new EP called ‘Seu Sangue’ (due out on April 14th, somewhat lessening the surprise when it actually drops). The EP will herald a tour of the UK (and other places) and it’s…

The Chemical Brothers – there’s no-one quite like them. Weird, heady drug music, but still a boatload of fun. Well, they’re back with a new thing. In fact, it’s the first new thing since 2021, which is nice. As ever, they’re back with a very heady drug video (that’s still a boatload of fun) and…

We’ve heard people raving about Lankum, and like all nosey parkers, we wanted to know what was going on to see if we would find a new band we liked, and at worst, not like them and generally be dismissive of other people’s music tastes and bemoan the state of it all. Good news! This…

We love Alison Goldfrapp – she can veer from witchy folkie wonderfulness, to synthpop glam dominatrix – and now she’s back, and this time, she’s eyeing up the dancefloor. The new track is called ‘So Hard So Hot’ and she said: “I wanted to do something that had that very clubby, acid-y feeling to it,…

BOWIE TO BE ANIMATED LIKE ABBA
David Bowie – a man with regrettably few decent haircuts in such a long and industrious career – is looking like returning from the dead, and starring in a new show that’s like the ABBA Voyage one. Is it virtual reality? It’s not a hologram. You know what we mean. Either way, you’ve got to…

CHAKA KHAN GOES IN (ENJOY THE CATTINESS)
Chaka Khan has taken the gloves off and thrown immense shade at Mariah Carey and Adele. Now, if you’re visiting from some awful stan account or the point of view of a MEGA FAN, then go away already. See, this is pop music. We’re hear to have fun. We’re hear to enjoy the cattiness. Someone…

TEKE:TEKE WITH MORE JAPANESE PSYCHROCK
They’re a Japanese psychedelic band and based in Montreal and they’re called TEKE:TEKE and if that isn’t one of the most flatly factual openings to an article, we don’t know what is. Anyway, not to say we aren’t excited by this new song by them called ‘Garakuta’ – a fried, fuzz wig-out and is delightfully…

KARA JACKSON: MORRICONE MEETS SINGER SONGWRITER GREATNESS
Kara Jackson has been doing cool things and it’s hard to pin down exactly what that is in a catchy headline. She’s got a cinematic way with words and on a new track, a killer backdrop of Morricone/Ry Cooder dusty twang. It’s dead good. The new track (we’ll get to that in a minute) will feature…
