Panorama

RHODONITE AND GRIEF

Lincoln, here’s a song for you
I’ve been twisting in the vapors and the fumes
There is nothing that I can say to you now
That you have not already heard

Lincoln, you cheated me again
From the highways, I had visions and the shakes
There is no one who can take me from this land
More than once, I was captured in your lens

Fall back, let the sunshine blind your eyes
Hear the voices of your lovers be your guide
There are many windows open in the house
They are letting out our secrets with the heat
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing left to hide

Dear shipwrecked, I, too, am waiting to be saved
I had my prayers and praises all sent back
Heaven is full of people who belong
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing left to hide

In the Shape of a Storm

“High With You“ written and performed by Turtles on Speed at the Canyon Hut and 17 Hertz

Produced by TOS and Mike Pepe
Mixed by Mike Pepe
Mastered by Alan Douches

LYRICS:

Hangin’ outside the liquor store
Tryin’ to find some sucker to buy us alcohol and cigarettes
You know, life was so much simpler then
And I never wanted it to end

Getting high with you 
Is all I ever wanna do

Skipping school, telling lies
About where we been and chasing girls around the valley
You know, the stars could never shine half as bright
If we lived that night 1,000 times

Getting high with you
Is all I ever wanna do

Stoned out of my mind on Ventura Blvd.
Hopped into a strangers car
But we never got too far
Because all I wanna do
Is get high with you…

High With You

Endless Desire EP

PZL152: The Regrets - Houndstooth

I was only young when he told me that he had enough
For me to just stay home and relax, don'y worry 'bout the money in the bank
'Cause I got stacks around the house, it's underneath the floorboards in the lounge
It's only bits of paper lying round, everything you need is underground
I think it feels right

Would you like to be my sugardaddy?
I'm tired of working seven days a week
He's old enough to treat me properly
In five more years, he might die in his sleep

I was wearing red that dress you like
And now it's hanging over my head like a cloud
When did it start to feel like this? You say you love me and you'll pay for it
Am I your little pet? You keep me rest and red
I say it twice then you write me a cheque, 
It's like you never care if I'm upset, I wish you could slot notes into my head

Sugardaddy

LUCIA - Blue Heart

'Softie' is an attempt at proving that there is more than one way of being a functional human being. The album is about coping, growing out of your fears, learning how to distance yourself from your anxieties and the ups and downs that comes with being bipolar. 'Softie' is ultimately about releasing the pressure off of yourself and we want to encourage our listeners to do the same.

We decided to make a record that was turbulent, back and forth and non-conforming, because we wanted our second album to hit you in the face rather than rock you to sleep or move you to tears.

The Guesthouse

Taken from the forthcoming album There's No Fight We Can't Both Win, out 26th April 2019.

For the uninitiated, Mammoth Penguins are a 3-piece indie pop powerhouse, showcasing the songwriting and vocal talents of Emma Kupa (Standard Fare, The Hayman Kupa Band) backed up by the noisiest rhythm section in indie pop. 

Their first album, Hide and Seek, was released with the much-loved and sorely missed Fortuna Pop! in 2015. Stand-out tracks ‘Strength In My Legs’ and ‘When I Was Your Age’ were picked up by BBC 6Music and Radio X, and the band played a live session for Marc Riley the following year. 

But Mammoth Penguins didn’t want to stop there.  Their follow-up release John Doe in 2017 was an ambitious concept album, exploring the feelings of loss and anger at a man who fakes his own death, only to return years later. It featured contributions from Haiku Salut’s Sophie Barkerwood and Alto 45’s Joe Bear, and expanded well beyond the 3-piece rock‘n’roll template, with washes of strings, synths and samples (field recordings of butter being scraped on toast, photocopiers, and Ramsgate beach helping to fully immerse the listener in the world the band have created) filling out and developing Kupa’s songwriting. 

Having had their ‘and now for something completely different’ moment, the band have brought that ambition and expanded palette to the production of this new release. The sound is big, bold and confident—with layers of guitars, backing vocals and keys all adding extra muscle—but maintaining Emma’s candid, heartfelt, confessional style of songwriting, and the jubilant power pop hooks that made the first record so special.   

This time around, classic themes of love, loss and conflict are (mostly) given a hopeful and optimistic spin that opposition is neither inevitable nor hopeless. For musical comparisons, think Land of Talk, and Philadelphia bands such as Swearin and Hop Along, but Kupa’s insight into the everyday and her ability to pen such relatable and honest missives means that, often, the best comparison for Mammoth Penguins’ music is with your own past. 

“Like a lot of songwriters, my songs are derived from my own personal experiences, thoughts and feelings, long lived or fleeting. The times when people have said my lyrics resonate with them or articulate something specific for them are extremely validating for me and I hope that happens with this album. Arranging the songs with Mark and Tom is a massive buzz and playing them live as a band feels exciting and fantastic. Having Joe and Faith put their mark on the songs was also a massive privilege. When we’re working on a new song it gets to a point where we just want to keep repeatedly playing it over and over. However, making a record can be an extremely slow and drawn out process that requires patience, perseverance and resilience, and because of that we are super excited and proud to be releasing this album.” Emma Kupa, Mammoth Penguins.

Minor Poet - Tropic of Cancer

Quivers are back with new song "You're Not Always On My Mind", their first release since debut LP "We'll Go Riding On The Hearses", and are soon heading over to showcase at SXSW.

"You're Not Always On My Mind" (out everywhere Feb 20th) is their most direct release yet - Quivers' signature jangly guitars and shouted choruses tightened up into their first real pop song. It was recorded in The Aviary Recording Studio by Matt Redlich. The result has a "Reckoning” era R.E.M. vibe - snaking and shimmering guitars, and driving drums.

It's a bit like 10cc's "I'm Not In Love" - a song to prove how much you're not thinking about someone...
