Sara – ‘Horses’

Sara have been pushing out psych rock goodness since 2009, the NY/NJ trio released ‘Horses’ earlier in the year and there’s more to come. I’ve always been a sucker for phased out vocals! Free downloads and more at www.saratheband.com.

Linea Aspera – ‘How Light Works’

Amazing song, kinda like having your head wrapped in a cloud for seven minutes!  ’How Light Works’ (free download) is essentially an instrumental with some vocal effects that will drag you into a day dream. Note – not to be confused with the electronic duo out of the UK also called Linea Aspera.

Modern Charms – ‘Someday’

Fresh sounds from San Francisco’s Modern Charms, ‘Someday‘ is taken from a forthcoming six track EP (12inch via Clue #2 Records / Cassette via Kram). The trio will lap up fans of 90s leaning fuzz rock!

Flyying Colours – ‘Wavygravy’

Chances are this tune from Flyying Colours is going to make a fan out of you! Presumptuous sure, but these guys are belting out a noise that instantly pricks peoples ears up. Part psych rock, part shoegaze, the Melbourne-based four piece just released their debut video for ‘Wavygravy‘.

Dråpe – ‘Sister’s Eye’

One of the strongest albums of 2013!? We’re not even half way there but Norway’s Dråpe are going to be a hard act to follow. The shoegaze/dream/psych pop five piece have produced a brilliant debut LP in ‘Canicular Days’ (out now through Riot Factory). If the singles ‘Blue Skies‘ or ‘Memories‘ didn’t convince you – give this album cut a spin and see if it converts you! The summery sweet introduction of ‘Sister’s Eye’ slowly becomes an epic whirlwind. p.s. vinyl internationally delivered via Tiger.

A handful of big tracks have been released in the last fews days from forthcoming albums. The new record from Sigur Rós ‘Kveikur’ is sounding very strong, following ‘Brennistein’ we have their latest tune called ‘Ísjaki’ (I don’t even try to pronounce these things anymore!)

Finally, BBC Radio 6 premiered the new album cut ‘No Face’ from Savages debut LP ‘Silence Yourself’ (out May 6 UK / May 7 US via Matador). Check ‘em all out below…

Jetman Jet Team – ‘Cosmic Age’

Jetman Jet Team’s debut album ‘We Will Live The Space Age’ is out now via Saint Marie Records. I’ve had to try very hard not to make any bad jokes about jet streams or… cooling your jets, I failed. Moving on – The Seattle four piece arose in 2011 following the demise of former band The Pop Eccentric. ‘Cosmic Age’ is an aural assault of melodic noise with a harmonic twist at the end!

Landing – ‘Resonance’

Landing returned from a six yeah hiatus last year to release their self-titled LP and, (more recently) the 12inch mini album ‘Wave Lair’ through These Are Not Records. Since then Landing have kept busy touring with Mountains, A Place To Bury Strangers and Port-royal among others. The Connecticut-based band formed in 1998 before becoming known for their own brand of space rock, shoegaze and ambient sounds. Take a listen to a dreamy cut from the ‘Wave Lair’ EP below.
