AFTER rolling back into our lives and fuzzing everything up at the end of last month like a particularly psych-pop coastal fog with the deliciously eerie “Faceless Angel” and the unveiling of album the tenth, coming towards the end of April, once more, dear friends, once more, The Coral are ringmasters of the unforeseen. And …

ROLLOCKIN’ back in from their fastness on The Wirral, the inestimable The Coral, who’ve brought us so much off-kilter psych-pop joy in our lonely rooms since buccaneering into our world what? Jeez, nearly 21 years ago now – have just announced that they’re back, back, with studio album number ten, Coral Island, which will be …

THEIR self-titled debut back in 2018 was a bit of a cracker, frankly; they received the love from The Coral guitarist Paul Molloy last year, picking them when we popped round to his (figuratively speaking) and did a Soundtrack Of Our Lives, looking at the music he loves; and lo! they’re back, be glad, with …

DAVID BARDON and Oscar Robertson have been burrowing quietly into the London psych scene since 2017 as the surreally and aptly named Sunglasses For Jaws. By day, they’re a readymade rhythm section for hire, touring the world in the business of fleshing out other people’s sound, But they’re currently more psyched right now (in both …

Forged out of a need to be creative in these lockdown times, Wyndow is the new project from ex-Trambling Bells’ Lavinia Blackwall and singer-songwriter Laura J Martin. They’ve released a new singl ‘Take My Picture’, as well as revealing they are working on an album together. After meeting first at Moseley Folk Festival, the pair …

Soft Palms are husband and wife team Julia Kugel (The Coathangers, White Woods) and Scott Montoya (formerly of The Growlers) and ahead of their self-titled debut album, out on July 31st via Everloving Records the pair have released a new video for the track ‘Rainbows’. Rainbows has this gloriously ethereal quality to it, Julia Kugels …

Building up to the release of his fifth album ‘Flight’ on May 15th via Innovative Lesiure, Hanni El Khatib has released a new video for the track Alive taken from the release. It’s this sort of clever, ambitious psych-pop, all warm harmonies over these icy synth stabs in the verse, while the chorus is coloured …

I would boldly say Imperial Daze are one of the most exciting and promising bands around at the moment, possibly safeguarding the future of indie pop from the limpid rubbish that dominates the charts. Taking up the mantle from bands like The Verve, Pulp and even a touch of Stone Roses, Imperial Daze released a …

With their self-released debut album Jinx only a couple of weeks away, Brooklyn’s Crumb have released a new track in the shape of Fall Down. It follows the release of Ghostride and Part III, and follows similar paths of being this stripped back woozy slice of psychedelic pop. Full of drop dead gorgeous synth chords …

San Mei is the work of Gold Coast’s Emily Hamilton and her new single, ‘Wonder’, is a fantastic, slightly scuzzy, psych-tinged blast of pop. Incorporating elements of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and little bit of Garbage, ‘Wonder’ is bursting with energy and attitude with just a light dusting of grit to give it an inherent …
