London-based audiovisual project Kavé releases the new offering, “Through Waves”. It’s one of those tracks that will really hit you from the first play, and the organic opening sequence is a wonderful example of why this artist is starting to turn heads…. astunning, atmospheric rollercoaster that effortlessly blends lo-fi dream pop with cinematic post-rock.The song is only their second release since coming onto the music scene in late June, but what you can hear in front of you is a truly expansive track that blends lo-fi sounds, atmospheric post-rock, and some more organic percussion mixed with dark synths.Towards the second…
Colchester’s KaiserKillers are back with a new track, “Isolation”. We’ve previously featured the outfit on this website, but what this new release showcases is a bit more on the stripped-back side of things…. ajangly, catchy slice of acoustic-meets-punk indie driven by unmistakable British charm.One thing that instantly struck me was how jangly and fresh this track sounded, a bit more along the lines of acoustic rock, with the sounds of The Beach Boys even coming through. There’s a very memorable riff within the track, but for me, the main vocals were the real draw, with an undeniably British accent clearly…
Helsinki-based artist Conchis delivers a haunting blend of alternative pop and sizzling textures on “Under Your Feathers”. The new song is her second of the year, following on from the June release, “Streetlights”…. ahauntingly atmospheric synth-pop gem that proves Finnish music goes way beyond metal.The track is a stunning example of cinematic vocals and celestial moments that help to make it incredibly atmospheric and ethereal. At its core, it’s rather dark, but with the balance of violin strings and the main vocals, it really helps to bring it all together in a night-and-day kind of vibe.The track was written during…
After Canadian singer Benoît David’s tenure with Yes ended unhappily, he returned to his previous band, Mystery, to record his second of three albums with them, One Among The Living. The band’s fourth record overall, it proved to be their strongest. In 2010 Prog spoke to David and band leader Michel St.Pere about the release.Aptly named, Mystery are not a band with a particularly high profile. In fact, the Canadians got their biggest break two years ago, when vocalist Benoît David was chosen to replace Jon Anderson in Yes. Suddenly, Mystery were catapulted into something approaching the limelight. However, the…

A confident debut that shows the Nashville-based singer-songwriter has a vigour that sets her apart from the crowd.For singer-songwriter Alicia Blue, Waylon Jennings isn’t so much an influence as someone she calls “a creative angel summoning her from another realm”, so to have his son, Shooter Jennings, describe her as “As rare as they come” must feel like quite the accolade. Perhaps even more special is the fact that upon hearing the demos of the songs for her debut album Country Desire, he jumped at the chance to work as her producer, not even the fact that she had no…
Proper country, raw and honest and raucous.Devyn Brinsfield is one of those characters with a backstory that you would dismiss as being unbelievable if you didn’t know better. Still employed as a school bus driver and groundsman, in his spare time he has developed quite a talent for invigorating the Bakersfield sound, while stretching the limits of that label to include honky tonk, sad country tunes, rollicking hoedowns, but also the odd blues lick and even the odd naughty word. Bring on the revolution!His career has received a significant boost after two songs were picked up and featured in the…
Michael Hurley died last year, and wasn’t it starting to look like he wasn’t the dying kind? Every now and then someone goes, and it’s only then that you realise what you’d been hoping for: that they’d be the lingering light that death can’t touch. He was 83. Ten years before his death, he played some songs at a vineyard in Southern California. There he is, a worn roundabout 73, wearing an old polka-dotted mechanic’s cap and a wrinkled linen button-down with the collar popped up. Looking like an old engine that just won’t quit. Sitting with his back to…

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. In May of this year, Architects marked a decade of their magnum opus, All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us. It is a uniquely cruel twist of fate that such a moment came shrouded in the most complicated of emotions. It is impossible, after all, to separate the art from the plight of the artist – one of British metal’s most gifted, visionary sons – so central to its creation. It is impossible, too, to separate it from the Architects story that has followed in the decade since, and the path…
