I Heart The Monster Hero release debut album “Rhythm & Pals” via Crocfingers on 30th June.

Bright pop, course guitar and layered vocals - we like! The Irish times

extreme korg tendencies and such behaviour leaves us with no option 
but to roll out the failte doormat mp3hugger

unique blend of synth-pop, garage-rock and noise-pop elements I Heart the Monster Hero’s expansive sound is an exciting, frantic culmination of these individual parts. Thelastmixedtape

epic quirk-rock at its finest –very inspiring  dublinconcerts



I HEART THE MONSTER HERO release their debut album ‘Rhythm & Pals’ through Crocfinger Records on 30th June. They have been breaking hearts and Casio keyboards in Dublin since 2011, garnering support for their 'fuzzed-up swirl of pop-laminated psych punk.' They are a  psychedelic synth pop-rock delight with buckets of steam . Yes steam!  IHTMH are practitioners in aural alchemy, creating magic from crystals, rams blood, holy candle wax and Casio circuit-boards. The album is preceded by the first single to be lifted from the record, the up-beat ‘Toni Bailey’, on 16th June - a tale of ill-fitting faces and an ill-fitting drummer. 

Anchored around the vocal talents of Andy Walsh, IHTMH reference ELO and Cars but hand-break the psych-wagon into the space between Suicide and Bongwater

I Heart The Monster Hero will psych your face off this summer!

IHTMH are Andy Walsh / Simon Dowling / Philip Clarke / David Crean / Paddy Walsh

Jupiter Lion to release ‘Brighter’ the highly anticipated follow-up to ‘Silver Mouth’ this September.

Originating from the Mediterranean coast, the trio of Jupiter Lion appears to be an outlander in the city of Valencia. Washing ashore on a wave of ethereal melody and tidal drones, the band is a noticeably different presence from the dance floor fare that is omnipresent on the sandy beaches of Spain.

2013’s ‘Silver Mouth’ (Bcore) was a hypnotic chronicle of kraut rock influences and experimental pop, and the upcoming ‘Brighter’ takes psychedelia into a realm of analog electronics that few bands could ever follow. But Jupiter is not about repeating themselves, which is why they bravely pilot a reinvented sound where jazz, techno, and post punk collide on a timeline still not requiring computer instrumentation.

On ‘Brighter’ Jupiter Lion’s analog keyboards forsake presets, and defy convention with a zapping pulse or shimmering brilliance that makes other synth bands seem lazy for their impersonate sound. The elongated track length of the single, “Your God Is A Human” draws comparisons that bridge both past and future in an affect that is utterly phantasmagoric. Featuring a progression that is as musically adventurous as France’s Magma in the 1970s, the single in addition presents an present-day aesthetic as updated as Portland’s Copy.

After a brief hiatus, Jupiter returned this past summer to share the stage with Neutral Milk Hotel, and Godspeed You Black Emperor at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound. Completed tour runs with Spectrum and Dead Skeletons are indicative of the band’s cross-over potential, assuring their station in the pantheon of futurist rock where allies will be in great supply.

With the release of ‘Brighter,’ Jupiter Lion have taken a surreal trajectory of lucid synths, agile jazz rhythm and cinematic poise. Proving that when something is instantly destined to be a classic, it still has one foot firmly planted in the future.
