Drop what you’re doing right now, because you need to be all
over World’s End Press…like
yesterday.
Grimy sneers and dance-floor sleaze never sounded so good. If
this were in a movie, “Deadbeat Sweetheart” would be thumping heavily against the
walls of the inner office of a slimy nightclub as the greasy owner, played by
Ron Jeremy, tries to seduce his newest employee.
Repulsive images aside, this quartet of Aussies, manage to
make their brand of electro pop sparkle despite several heavy coats of lurid lecherousness, and I mean that in only the best of ways.
Spring has sprung! So what better way to celebrate than with
the breezy sounds of The
Money Go Round.
Like Tame Impala if they did surf rock, “Endless Sun” is a seductively
summery tune filled with breezy vocals, a driving bass line, and psychedelic 70s
guitar lines.
Escape the drudgery of your day with the envy-inducing video
below, which features a merry band of beautiful people in the springtime of their
youth having the time of their lives on a road trip.
Treat yourself to the pillowy soft sounds of Tape Waves and their brand of
ethereal surf rock.
Like the gentle sounds of the ocean, Kim Hart’s waifish
voice and soft jangling pop gently caress your speakers and are exactly what
you want to hear murmuring in your ears as you slip off into dream land.
Stream “Ready Now” and “Wherever I Go” below and head over
to bandcamp to snag it for however
generous you’re feeling.
Hide your kids and lock your doors because Deap Vally is cannonballing their
way across the country to promote their rollicking new EP Get Deap!
Drawing heavily on the rock gods of yore – Led Zeppelin,
Stooges, and Joan Jett – these two mynxes breathe diesel, spit fire, and bleed pure adrenaline. Their darkly sexual and predatory brand of blues rock
simultaneously arouses and terrifies you in a way that only proper rock and
roll can.
With the snarl of a panther, Lindsey Troy screams like a
combination of Alison Mosshart, Robert Plant, and Jack White, while Julie
Edwards mercilessly assaults the drums with the force of an artillery barrage.
Peep the videos for “Lies” and “Gonna Make My Own Money”
below, and head here
to score a free download of “Ain’t Fair.”
Bang
Bang Rock n Roll mean serious business – and their business is riot-inducing
garage rock. Two parts grim and hellish rock and one part sneering petulance
Bang Bang Rock n roll is all kick ass.
Infusing surf punk with elements of psychedelic southwestern
rock and the sugary sweetness of 60s pop, this three-piece churns out
some seriously thrashable jams. Look no further than “Something I Can Live For”
which is a bit like David Lynch’s Wild at
Heart collided with The Cardigans “My Favorite Game” in a grimy biker bar in
the southwest – or “I Love You,” which sounds a bit like Flat Duo Jets meets
FIDLAR.
Stream “Something I Can Live For” and “I Love You” below,
and be sure to head to bandcamp to nab
their EP.
Have a listen to “B-Minor,” the latest track from The Men
Taken from Sacred Bones’ Todo Muere Vol. 3, the label’s planned
release for Record Store Day, “B-Minor” is loud, brash, and full of
sleazy sneers – in short, everything you’ve come to expect from this Brooklyn
five piece. Recorded during the same session that saw the creation of their
last album New Moon, their newest
release rocks every bit as hard.
It's about damn time! Empire of the Sun is back with a new album and the lead single "Alive," is one helluva dance floor banger. Expect this to be played endlessly all summer long.
Ice on the Dune drops June 18th, so mark your calenders.
Start the week off right with the darkly unhinged rock n’
roll of Australia’s Kill City
Creeps.
From the track’s pulsating tribal drum intro alone, you know
you’re in for some real trouble, and things only go from bad to worse as the
devilish vocals gather steam. With its thrumming bass line and pyschadelic
organs, “I Got a Letter” spirals out of control in a kaleidoscope of influences
ranging from the lurid voodoo of Screamin Jay Hawkins, the feverish horror of
the Cramps, the kick your ass rock of the Stooges, and so much more.
Stream “I Got A Letter” below, and be sure to head to their bandcamp to snag their debut self-titled
EP.
