Most of you will probably think its all bloody terrible, but that's ok, if you're adventurous come in and have a listen. Tropical Fuck Storm (great band name haha) - Soft Power (psychadelic, progressive, atmospheric rock) A friend showed me this album last night. Admittedly I'd smoked alot of weed but I'm still in love with it today. The lyrics are great and they have their own sound. There's some really good stuff coming out of Australia at the moment + Show Spoiler + . Melody's Echo Chamber - Visions of Someone Special, On a Wall of Reflections (dream pop/shoegaze/french whispery voice) This one isn't as strange, but its great anyway. I genuinely think 'french whispery voice' should be a genre of music. + Show Spoiler + GNOD - Stick in the Wheel (rock, psych) From the brilliantly titled 'Just Say No to the Psycho Right-Wing Capitalist Fascist Industrial Death Machine'. GNOD are a local band for me, and are a collective that have been going for over 10 years gaining respect in the underground scene for their amazing live shows. Their music ranges from weird electronic ambient albums to krautrock influenced psychedelia, but this album is a bit more straight up. Any chance to plug them I will because they are amazingly talented and also lovely people. + Show Spoiler + Daughters - The Lord's Song (noise rock) Amazing heavy noise rock. Anguished, rage filled vocals, heavy riffs and great production and song structures make these guys stand out from the crowd. It sounds oppressive and nightmarish. + Show Spoiler + Alice Coltrane - Journey In Satchidananda (jaaaaaaaazzzzzzzz) Alice Coltrane is amazing. She was a jazz harpist, something you don't see too often, and first wife of the legend John Coltrane. Her jazz was focused on spirituality and often had a euphoric, psychedelic feel to it. Its experimental even for jazz, and can be a difficult listen, but there are moments of real joy scattered throughout it - and I'm not what you call a jazz music fan. + Show Spoiler + I'll probably edit this and add more as I think of more.

Not the sort thing you see every day but its pretty decent if you ask me. + Show Spoiler + And this one's a weird tripped out visual art/ambient music performance type thing. Its like some mad mythological sci fi witch cult doing a ritual. + Show Spoiler +

Jockmcplop United Kingdom5206 Posts March 29 2019 14:13 GMT #3 I've got a weird selection of things here today! First, this is an amazing new band from Leeds, UK, doing post punk in a really imaginitive way. The song titles are fantastic too - I particularly like 'Mum, Tell Him' and 'Illegal Backflip' They are called Beige Palace and they played at the first only gig I put on in Manchester. You can stream the album here for some undefined short amount of time: https://birthdaycakebreakfast.wordpress.com/2019/03/29/exclusive-stream-leg-the-debut-album-from-beige-palace/?fbclid=IwAR1g3ULrWm1T5Dea8drR30jT0nogDrVGGrzY8FeaDZJxSmv47kmrWLo7pow Right here's some trippy LSD music for stupid stoners I love it. + Show Spoiler + And some Russian (?) synthwave which is lovely: + Show Spoiler +

If you're into noise rock artists like Shellac and thought that they were the crest of the wave take a listen to this. This is where all that stuff came from. For music nerds such as myself its a little hard to understand how this music was coming out in the late 70's/early 80's Absolute legends. Charles Hayward was the drummer, who has recently played on solo albums as well as playing for Hot Chip and various other projects. Anyway, here's a few tunes: A New Kind of Water (my favourite - you can really see their influence on post punk here): + Show Spoiler + Paper Hats: + Show Spoiler + The Fall of Saigon (Peel Session) + Show Spoiler +
