psychedelic pop

The Magic Lotus are an accomplished alternative garage rock duo whose 60s influenced melodicism is backed by a forceful grunge attack. With infectious pop hooks peppered over the minimalistic dirt of a power trio, The Magic Lotus lock, load and cajole with their psychedelic punk singalongs, evidenced on their new single, “Let Music”, which is out now via Animal Farm.

Check out the video below.

“Golden Gaze” is the brand new single from Max And The Stereo Films, taken from the band's brand new album “The Cow Divorced Me”.

Hailing from Kaliningrad, Russia, “Golden Gaze” was a hit single for Ian Brown and this exciting new version features Angus Wallace (Prodigy), who added his programming along with Mike Bennett (Wishbone Ash, Alan Keary, Intastella, Jah Wobble) on production.

Noise Appeal Records, probably one of the greatest indie labels in the German-speaking countries, has once again lived up to its reputation!

The newest band on the label is called The Ghost And The Machine.

And the first track and video for “Caroline” is now available below.

“Caroline” is the harbinger and is a road trip through the obscure inner life of a fictitious woman, who finally finds her empathy on the playground of a sound experience. A slightly psychedelic, surrealistic song of long lost emotions, written and arranged by The Ghost And The Machine.

Three years since the release of the critically-acclaimed album “Mysteries”, Tigercats return with their long-awaited and much-anticipated follow-up, “Pig City”, released on May 4th, 2018.

The band’s third record, and first with Barcelona label El Segell del Primavera, the album is the sound of a band very much in their prime – with the results fierce, bold and powerful.
 
The band are pleased to share “Perfect Fried Chicken”, the first track to be taken from the album, a kalimba-led psychedelic pop track which you can stream below.

Faces On TV is the creation of Jasper Maekelberg, a multi-instrumentalist and producer who’s intelligent and adventurous psychedelic pop has caused a stir in his native Belgium.

The celebrated sound-architect is set to release his eagerly-anticipated debut album “Night Funeral” on April 20th, 2018, via Unday Records. A polychromatic symphony of magnetic synths, shuffling rhythms and exotic sounds, echoes of Air, Alt-J and Portishead can be heard across the album, resulting in a multicoloured fusion of sparkling percussion, crafting beats and tempting vocals.

After 2015’s triumphant return with the “Were We Ever Here” EP, Brighton shoegaze luminaries Air Formation, have released their fourth long-player “Near Miss”, via the UK’s premiere psych label, Club AC30.

They’ve now also shared their brooding new video for their latest single “A.M.”.
 
Speaking about the video for the band say: “After the head trip video Chris at Innerstrings did for us on Vanishing Act, we wanted to try something a little more cinematic. I added the track to some motorcycle footage I had and it felt like really clicked with the Krautrock vibe. It was a lot of fun experimenting”.
