Here a song about a homeless man.  

Lyrics:
Where are you gonna live
A corporate discretion
When you want to survive
Sleeping in your Basement

Blaxson

Anti-static plastic man
No on understands your plan
To no big surprise
Now its time for January skys

Catching all the January flies
Staring into Natures eyes
You couldn't find a reason
Your reasons are out of season

"robust ... hard-driving indie-rock, spiked with ’90s-style riffage, tempo changes and twining boy/girl vocals" -- Buzzbands.LA

"How can you not adore ... Hobart W Fink" -LA Record

"You won't be able to look away" - The Deli LA

"Dirty, grungy sounds... garage rock with indie vibes... blends nicely with today's alternative scene." -- The Echo

**
Hobart W Fink is indie grunge rock w a disaffected punk aesthetic. With two lead singers, Jayk Gallagher and Lauren Lakis, the band blends touches of The Strokes, Interpol, and Queens of The Stoneage, with such disparate influences as Elliott Smith, Nirvana, and Ben Gibbard in an eclectic stew. Fans have likened HWF's sound to a combination of The X, The B-52's, and Sonic Youth.

The sound is characterized by crystalline vocal harmonies that emerge from gutsy, cutting garage rock. (Noe Santiago on Bass, AJ Brown on Drums.)

SO MANY LOSERS is straight-forward, unabashed rock with just a hint of irony. Hobart W Fink delivers their fun, no-frills brand of garage rock which treads the line between punk and grunge, apathy and enjoyment.

"There is undoubtedly a capable songwriter involved in the band, as the stylized compositions have a tonality which keeps the audience in full focus and whilst easy for the ear to engage with, the tracks are far from easy to play as tempos switch up and down, along with keys, whilst retaining an animate flow." - Emerging Indie Bands

"Their new video is as fun as the song. Both video and track have a summer irreverence that is infectious. Both make me want to quit my job for the summer." - Syffal.com

"The video .. makes for one heck of a travelogue; it was filmed ... in Peru and in New Orleans, as if the song isn’t escapist enough." - Buzzbands.la

"The music is garage rock at its core; but with a keen sense of dynamics and melody Hobart W Fink have created a sound that slots in nicely with today’s alternative rock scene. ... sets the band apart from their contemporaries ... Hobart W Fink is a fine act to listen to, and they keep things simple and dirty like any fine band should do." - Indie Music

So Many Losers - Hobart W Fink

Algernon Doll have released their third album, Omphalic, via Struggletown Records.

Omphalic sees Algernon Doll break out from his one man band persona as he continues to hone and perfect an alternative guitar sound that harks back to a sound reminiscent of early 90’s grunge. At just 24 years old, Ewan Grant is carving out a place in the hearts and minds of fans and critics alike and has already released two critically acclaimed albums, Camomile and Citalo-pop, that has seen him compared to the likes of Elliott Smith. On Omphalic Algernon Doll really cuts loose and pulls on influences ranging from Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins to The Jesus Lizard and Mudhoney to produce an up-tempo, driven rock album that is both rich in its abrasive qualities as well as creating memorable hooks and choruses that are willingly addictive.

Tracks such as first single Spilt Milk Perfume, ‘Justine’ and ‘Candy Striped’ offer a reflective sound with chiming guitars, poignant lyrics and unforgettable hooks that are comparable to the likes of Sebadoh in their pomp. While, ‘Tamed’, ‘Suicide’ and ‘Fellate’ have an angriness and causticity that has Nirvana written all over it. 

Omphalic was mastered by Bob Weston of the mighty Shellac, who has production credits on a host of classic records such as Nirvana’s In-Utero, Shipping News, Missions of Burma, Chavez, June of 44, Rachel’s and LCD Soundsystem. Algernon Doll features Ewan (guitar & vocals), Wull Swales (bass & backing vocals) and Owen Wicksted (drums) with Ewan and Tom Mitchell also playing drums on the record.

To support the release, Algernon Doll will be playing a number of shows in the UK as well as the Radio 1 Big Weekend and Wickerman Festival, while he aims to record more tracks, this time with Steve Albini, at the end of this year or early next year.

Omphalic by Algernon Doll is out now via Struggletown Records.
