The Psychedelic Furs – Wedding Song

I’m delving back into the early ages of post-punk and I’m just discovering The Psychedelic Furs. I love this whole record and this song is one I’ve had on repeat. Check it out.

Preoccupations-Anxiety

I already know what my TOTW is, I might actually just slowly pick each track from the entire record. ‘Anxiety’ by post punk group Preoccupations. Don’t miss out, have a listen.

Definitely one of the coolest bands to follow in the 2000’s, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs were one of the bands that everyone went crazy for, such as The Strokes, LCD Soundsystem and Interpol. Karen O had an incredible, bossy voice and their sound was an arty/punk mix. They were cool as f**k and played theContinue reading “Yeah Yeah Yeahs-Fever To Tell”

Eye-C-E.

Every now and then an artist or group gets in touch with me on the ole Social Media to check out their music! It’s very rare but it’s cool when they do because it gives me a chance to hear new music and ask them a few questions. These artists are usually Irish, but notContinue reading “Eye-C-E.”

Big Thief-Capacity

Forgive me in advance if I get a little carried away with this one. Big Thief have shot out of nowhere to become one of my favourite bands at the minute. They’ve two records, ‘Masterpiece‘ released in 2016 which was quickly followed up by ‘Capacity’ mid 2017. It’s this record that I want to talk aboutContinue reading “Big Thief-Capacity”

TOTW-IDLES-Exeter

Never has there been an easier choice for Track Of The Week than ‘Exeter’. ‘Brutalism‘ is an explosive record all over and IDLES blunt and slightly comedic approach to writing actually sits well with the raging sound of the record. This is my favourite track off the record and if it strikes a chord in you,Continue reading “TOTW-IDLES-Exeter”

Big Thief in Whelans!

Absolutely delighted to have gotten two tickets to Big Thief who will play Whelans on April 1st. Just getting into these guys whose albums ‘Masterpiece’ and ‘Capacity’ are incredible. Pure lyrics and a natural rock sound that’s both genuine and fresh, I can’t seem to pull myself away from them. Check out the mesmerising ‘Mary’Continue reading “Big Thief in Whelans!”

St.Vincent-Actor

I’ve known of St.Vincent since about 2012, so not long. However, I took a special interest in her after I had seen that she appeared on a National record. I did a little research both online and in-store and discovered that she had a few records, so I thought I’d treat myself. ‘Actor‘ was theContinue reading “St.Vincent-Actor”

TOTW-Sonic Youth-Dirty Boots

I’ve never hidden my love for Sonic Youth and recently they’re all I can listen to. ‘Goo’ in particular is a record I keep going over, and it’s the opening track, ‘Dirty Boots’ that is our TOTW. A little more subtle than what fans of Sonic Youth were used to at the time, but stillContinue reading “TOTW-Sonic Youth-Dirty Boots”
