psych playlists


I am the first to admit that my ‘Psych Insight’ reviews concentrate on the more fuzzy guitar end of things, but this week’s playlist is looking at music that is more electronically inspired.

Enjoy!   Brutal Beach by Quetzal Snakes Quetzal Snakes hail from Marseille, France and are just about to embark of an extensive …

There is so much amazing new music out there at the moment that this playlist is exclusively showcasing some choice releases from the last month. Enjoy!   I Sing in Silence by Goat Goat announces new 7″: I Sing In Silence, they are here again with a more tempered and drawn out sound. This is …

There is nothing new on this Psych Insight playlist, rather a collection of tracks that I really love and come back to again and again. I hope that you dig them too.   Sex Priest by Buffalo Tooth From the album ‘Gardeners of the Devil’s Lettuce’ (Captcha Records). If you haven’t heard this yet…you really …

Here’s another selection of Psych Insight tunes, mostly new but with a couple of older ones thrown in. As always, enjoy!   Pharmakon by Dead Sea Apes I recently played the Dead Sea Apes ‘Lupus’ …
