EP Review: Steven McNamara – ‘Wake Up Lie Down’

sm

Every now and again you are confronted with the unwelcome news, that a band you have come to cherish and respect, have decided to call it a day.

Such was the case recently with Formes – I had been eagerly awaiting a vinyl release date for their debut album ‘Dysphoria Part 1‘, only to be deflated with an unexpected announcement, signalling the end of the band.

At the time, I prophetically commented that “the phoenix will rise again” – so certain was I, that the fire in these guys would not remain dormant for long. The simmering energy in Formes’ performance at 2014’s Liverpool Psych Fest, a clear indicator for me, of the restless spirits within.

Album Review: Fyrskeppet – ‘Sydostbrotten’

eg

Who the fuck is Fyrskeppet I hear you cry…

In this instance it is not so much a who, as a what.

In the truly idiosyncratic style to which we have become addicted, Fyrskeppet – or Swedish for Lightship is the latest incarnation of Daniel Westerlund, aka The Goner, aka E Gone.

That he returns in a guise, hauntingly familiar to my sea faring lineage, is a particular delight.

I spent most mid-70’s school holidays aboard my father’s trawler, in and around the Faroes and Iceland. An unwitting observer and participant in the last instalment of the “Cod Wars”, even being rammed on occasion by the Icelandic Gunboat!

EP Review: Capra Informis – ‘Womb Of The Wild’

ci

“‘Womb of the Wild’ is the first release by Capra Informis, a new band put together by the unnamed djembe player from Goat.”

An enigma wrapped in a mystery then…

I love the whole anti-celebrity air of mystique that shrouds the Goat collective, proof positive that you do not have to sell your soul to the devil in order to achieve success, real success on their own terms – or perhaps that was an integral part of the Vodun compact, invoked with Bondye?

Capra Informis or Shapeless Goat, bodes well, as the collective expands our consciousness, so too in many guises can they expand their esoteric dominion.

Video: Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation – ‘Take Me Beyond’

hg

‘Take me Beyond’ is the first single from Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation‘s debut album, ‘Horse Dance’ and was released as a digital single on 30 October.

Every now and again something of this calibre comes along, and somehow manages to slip between the cracks of my listening and appreciative pleasures.

In this instance, I had been aware of the Rocket Recordings announcement some weeks back and being secure in the comfortable knowledge of Rocket’s enviable pedigree, had fully intended to return to the enticingly descriptive introduction.

New Release: Vulgarians – ‘Wet Juice’

vul

I get sent all kinds of stuff – most of it by people who have obviously never bothered to read the page, or even taken the time to establish what it’s all about.

Don’t get me wrong, I like to think I am as eclectically open-minded as the next astute, demagogic demigod…

Vulgarians bassist Jodie Smith, is exactly the calibre of enlightened artist I want to hear from!

Debut single ‘Wet Juice’ is a discordant masterpiece, guaranteed to set my sap flowing.
