Mind Spiders

New full length from the guy from the Marked Men. new group Mind Spiders had a good single out at the end of last year and now comes the debut full length. More catchy garage rock as you would expect. Pretty damn good too.

This is surprisingly good. I may not delete this album.

Also I snagged the new Nicole Atkins before the links got nuked, if anyone wants it.

Gruff Rhys - Hotel Shampoo

http://www.mediafire.com/?3y3lyd2n33vgbwp

Quote:

Gruff Rhys stays busy outside of his work with Super Furry Animals: he has two solo efforts to his name, as well as Neon Neon with Boom Bip and 2010's collaborative album with Tony Da Gatorra. Hotel Shampoo is his third proper solo LP, and it is at least nominally about a strange habit that Rhys picked up while touring. As he explains it, "A gleaming new cosmos of hotel accommodation opened up for me and in an instant I was seduced by the free product available in the rooms...Having never kept a journal these items have become like diary entries, triggering memories of all those buildings and random people I've met and inspiring some of the songs on the album." An art installation at the Chapter Arts Center in Cardiff accompanied the announcement of the album, and can be previewed here.

It's awesome.

He's offering a free download of "Shark Ridden Waters" http://gruffrhys.com

Only one listen, but I think it's pretty good. Sounds like a warm weather driving record to me.

As far as it being a "huge disappointment", what were you expecting? It's not like his solo stuff has done anything to raise expectations thus far.

Good to hear. I'll give it more listens. Especially since I lost the receipt & can't take it back for credit.

Obviously, the expectations were generated by his work in DBTs, which is the single reason why anybody has ever bothered to listen to any of his solo albums. I keep hoping to catch a glimpse of the Isbell you used to see on stage with the Truckers - blue-eyed Southern soul with some balls - and instead he seems more than content to churn out sub-James Taylor sap.

Haven't listened to this one yet. But sub-James Taylor sap is how I'd classify the previous one. I hoping that this one would be a little grittier.

I mightily love all of Isbell's DBT work but I could barely listen to any of his solo albums up until now. I think at this point because the bar was set so fucking low for me I really latched on to this one. Planning on another listen tomorrow.

Here's Nicole Atkins, recommended based on a single listen:

Found that Apex Manor on Magiska. Apex Manor is the lead singer from the Broken West's post-BW project.

Often imitated - by the likes of The Cult's Ian Astbury, Soft Cell's Marc Almond and punk legends The Ramones - but never duplicated, The Fuzztones began in 1980 in the bowels of NYC's Lower East Side, sporting a '60s Garage Punk look and sound, the latter courtesy of their vintage gear including a Fuzzbox distortion pedal used to achieve a distinctively retro-psychedelic vibe. In 1985, the band released its debut full-length, Lysergic Emanations, which quickly became a cult sensation, thanks in part to copious praise from Astbury. After a brief stint at Beggar's Banquet, the band reclaimed their indie status and launched numerous, hugely successful European tours as well as new recordings throughout the '90s & '00s. Now celebrating their 30-year anniversary, the band returns with a brand new set of compositions, Preaching To The Perverted, and ready to ring in the next decade with all the pomp and circumstance these veteran rockers deserve!

Isbell WISHES he had a "Blue on Black" on his resume.

Thanks for posting that! I'd totally missed it because it was described as "indie".
