I have been on holiday for a while and it is incredible just how many great releases and new music is out in such a short period. So tune in for the latest goodies in noiserock and psychedelic rock.
Girl Band
Let us start with new music from Girl Band, it has been four years since the release of ‘Holding Hands With Jamie’ wich was an absolute masterpiece of weirdness and heaviness in their own original way. Now they will release a new record called ‘The Talkies’ and will be released September 27 on Rough Trade (wich is three days from my birthday so i know what i will get already).
They released a video for their new track ‘Shoulderblades’ wich is exactly everything i could hope for. Girl Band is back and ready to destroy.

Ty Segall
And it does not stop after the new Girl Band and a Melvins/Flipper 10″. Nope the garagemaster Ty Segall drops a new track called ‘Taste’ from his upcoming album ‘First Taste’ wich will be out August 2 on Drag City. I would love to say; Have a taste of the new track ‘Taste’ from his upcoming album ‘First Taste’, but everyone has said this already. So check out the track and accompanied video now!

Juju
Juju (Gioele Valenti) is by now a known force in the psychedelic rock scene (Herself /Llay Lamas). His previous album ‘Her Mother Was A Plant’ was gorgeous piece of exotic psych.
His new work ‘Maps and Territory’ deals with exotic and hazy psych and is again an instant hit for me. Out on Fuzz Club.

Psychic Graveyard
I kinda forgot about Psychic Graveyard, wich is a shame because Psychic Graveyard rules.
Psychic Graveyard features members of Arab on Radar, Chinese stars, Doomsday Student and All Leather, Some Girls and Hot Nerds.
I absolutely love bands that do something different, and on ‘Loud As Laughter’ I get that original, wild and crazy vibe i love so much.
Their album ‘Loud As Laughter’ was released May 17 on Skin Graft Records.

Christian Fitness
Multiple personality one man punk band Christian Fitness released his (their) new album ‘you are the ambulance’.
Filled to the brim with energy this is one hell of an album. Fun from start to finish. Best enjoyed with a fresh brew.
Psychedelic Porn Crumpets
These Australian dudes have been making a name for themselves the past years and they deserve it, everything they make ends in good psychedelic rock. Tune in for their latest album ‘And Now for the Whatchamacallit’ thats released May 31.

Sonic Youth
You can now stream the live album ‘Battery Park, NYC: July 4, 2008’ for the first time. Originally this was a gift if you purchased their latest album ‘The Eternal’. Now you can stream their live show, and you should.
