Ever had that dream where an insect invades the ear and sets up home to mercilessly tease and torment thereon in? If so, a form of similar reality is about to be unleashed as the Reverse Family step forward to announce themselves with a sound which trespasses and festers in the psyche. The difference is that this is set to be the most welcome invasion of ears as it crawls with relish into the imagination.

Reverse Family is the solo project of Dermot Illogical, aided by a fluid band of collaborators from time to time, this debut offering is a lo-fi exploration into an experimental DIY web of sounds and flavours which is hard to pin down but certainly embraces everything from post punk and noise pop to indie and old school punk.  

The first song we came up against was Alchopoppers on Fast Food, a brief and gentle yet deviously engaging song which instantly entices thoughts of seventies bands like Swell Maps and The Shapes but with the melodic natures of The Freshies. It is captivating stuff even with a drop into calmer waters which does not quite connect with personal tastes. We are not sure of the album's track order but if this is to be the opener it provides a potent start though the brilliant Way It Goes is an even bigger pull. Carrying an early Adam and The Ants feel to its magnetic stroll, the song is pure addiction with a funk revelry bubbling under its pop punk surface, Dermot as vocally mischievous as the guitar led sounds around him. 

There is great variety to the songs too; Bit Slits for example flirting with the senses through keys which manage to sound like the brass flames of Essential Logic while guitar and vocals veer towards the Nikki Sudden school of discord blessed minimalistic seduction while Electronic 6 entangles portentous keys and winy guitars with fuzzy vocals for a Dalek I Love You/Artery scented melancholy. It is fair to say that Dermot wears influences openly yet each song develops its own distinct character under often familiar hues.

Hand of God has a darker and meatier nature to its predacious swing, contagious hooks and a great grumbling bassline aligning with melodic enterprise for a proposal which swiftly grips ears and appetite; a success just as easily won by the lively pop bounce of One Eyed, a seemingly early Television Personalities seeded encounter and the hypnotic I Can Sense Their Watching Eyes. This too has a flavour of Dirk Wears White Sox to it but with funky beats and another irresistible post punk guitar jangle in its off kilter dub teased shuffle, the track blossoming into another unique proposition within My Songs About Life Mid Crisis.

Other tracks in the mix are Business or Pleasure, a delicious song which sounds like Weezer soaping The Piranhas while recording it all in the bath, The Legend of Pierre with its haunting keys wrapped sultry croon, and Odd Mix Newgates, a seductive magnetic monotone tone spawned track surely inspired by Mark E. Smith.

The collection of tracks are completed by Higher Power with plaintive melodies and dour yet emotionally suggestive vocals and the outstanding May Number 10 Dream which again hints at bands like The Fall, Marc Riley and The Creepers, and The Mekons, as well as the criminally catchy Sods Law. Hips and feet beware as even in its low key nature it will have you swinging in an instant.

There are so many highlights offered by the Reverse Family songs; each track connecting with an ever eager hunger for punk fuelled, post punk spiced imagination. Plastic Punks epitomises this perfectly, its Fire Engines toned melodic jangle and Spizzenergi devilry sheer temptation again emerging as something specific to Reverse Family.

With a tongue in cheek lining to the lyrical reflection shaping songs which spreads into the music itself, Reverse Family is a beguiling adventure with a nod to the past and a grip on an imagination as fresh as it is, well quite simply a touch loco.

LETHAEOS s'inscrit dans un style puissant, hargneux et éclectique. Ils puisent leur énergie et s'inspirent de la force subtile qui porte le monde en déroute et qui effraie. Ils crachent leur paroles depuis le subconscient qui guide. Ses manifestations sont traduites depuis l'été 2013 par Thomas Barabino et Lucas Decarnin à la guitare, Adeline Gérard à la basse, Ronan le Bideau à la batterie et Pierre Descorde au chant avec un premier voile « Enemies » de 2 titres et une série de concerts suivis, 2 ans plus tard, du 1er album « Pillar of hope » dans lequel est évoquée l'entité gardant l'accès à un au-delà par le couloir du rêve lucide. Septembre 2016 sera le départ d'une tournée française et belge, révèlant ainsi au monde une esquisse de cette dimension.

LETHAEOS is part of a powerfull, aggressive and eclectic style. Its members draw from energy and get inspired by the subtle force that frightens and routs the world. Their words are spit from the preconscious guide. Its expressions are translated since Summer 2013 by Thomas barabino (guitar), (Lucas Decarnin (guitar), Adeline Gérard (bass), Ronan Le Bideau (drums) & Pierre Descorde (Vocals). The first veil entitled « Enemies » composed of two tracks was followed by a series of gigs and, 2 years later, by the 1st album « Pillar of hope » in which is mentioned the entity that keeps the access to the beyond through the corridor of lucid dream. At September 2016 starts the French & Belgian tour to reveal a sketch of this dimension to the world.



Two people become intertwined by the strangest twist of fate.
It was never meant to be, but somehow it works.
Tim and Bambi write music that reflects the chaos they came from and the optimism they thrive on.
High energy rock music with poetic anarchy typifies the music of British singer guitarist Tim Bennett Smith and California anti-pop princess, Bambi Monroe. They perform intimate stories laid upon a roaring bed of thrashing guitars and thumping bass and drums.

Newcastle based five-piece dabbling in dark and brooding psych-tinged rock...
 
"Kobadelta are frantic and feral. This Newcastle-based five-piece have supported the likes of Splashh and Temples, but they're not quite as psychedelic as those bands, instead pushing a far more muscular, gnashing sound. Their second EP, 'Remain Distracted', is out now." - NME

Andreas &amp; The Wolf have been partners in crime for many full moons, both as musicians and as djs. In bands: The Scratch, The Dodo, The Bleeed, Reverse Family &amp; The Tuesday Club, (Where these personas were honed) and now as their own fully fledged 'Alt Electronica' duo, for as the world was sleeping, weeping and bickering about gawd knows what, A&amp;W were hard at work on their debut LP. Fountain of Truth. An album born in the 80’s but conceived in the last decade… they have been waiting in the shadows, but now the time has come for it’s long awaited release…

But that's only half of it!...For If you love ‘Indie’, ‘Indie Dance’, ‘New Wave’, ‘Post Punk’, ‘Old School Punk’, ‘Vinyl’ and discovering ‘NEW music’, the Andreas and The Wolf Radio Show has to be the show for you! 

They began on Recharged Radio’s ‘Sound of the Suburbs’ show and then moved onto The Tuesday Club’s – ‘Club Foot’ podcast, but when the this ended in 2015, it seemed the duo’s radio days were over… 

But as 2018 dawned ‘A&amp;W’ decided it was time that they cranked up the turntable once more and give the world a chance to hear their sizeable back catalogue: Andreas and The Wolf (The band), The Tuesday Club, The Bleeed, Reverse Family, The DODO and Diamond Meadows, plus previous label Ponyland Records’ The Scratch. 

The A&amp;W radio show isn’t just an excuse to plunder their own musical heritage though, this eclectic ‘podcast’ comes interspersed with tracks by established artists that have influenced them , but also  tracks by fellow DIYers &amp; underground mavericks!
