The Golden Dregs – ‘What A Life, What A Waste’ Review

04/09/2014 by Tom Roden

There’s something naturally cool about sounding chilled and effortless, with a distorted breeze of guitars blowing along in the background. It is, to music, what Spaghetti Westerns were to film in the 1960’s. And in the wild western expanse of new music, The Golden Dregs are Clint Eastwood. They are effortlessly cool and deliver a rare kind of relaxed angst. ‘What A Life, What A Waste’ is like that weird blend of The Strokes, Howler and Damon Albarn that really […]

Wild Smiles – ‘Fool For You’ Review

17/05/2014 by Tom Roden

Distorted guitars lead the way in the latest single from Wild Smiles, an alt-rock band that you’re likely to be hearing about very shortly – not least because they’re getting quite a lot of support from radio stations lately. With a sound that simultaneously channels Beach Boys and Husker Du with hints of Supergrass’ ‘Richard III’ (basically it’s a less abrasive Howler, for those seeking a more contemporary example), ‘Fool For You’ is a track that gets slightly up in […]

Introducing…Broken Hands

31/03/2014 by Tom Roden

Currently on tour with US surf-grungers Howler, Broken Hands are a band of big tunes and tight rhythms that any alt-rock fan should check out right away.

And to my great fortune, Broken Hands – a band I had heard of but never really listened to – were the second support act. They were on […]
