New Tunes 25.10.2024

Hello, music lovers! 🎶

Ready for the weekend? Going somewhere for live music?
Whether you're going or not, here's a fresh selection of new songs, #newtunes, to listen to over the weekend and beyond.
Both well-known musicians and emerging artists are eager to capture our attention with their creations across various genres. Will they succeed?

If you have a few minutes, you can support them by listening. Maybe you'll like something and dig deeper. If you don't like some of them, you can skip them, as usual.

Heartworms - Warplane

Heartworms is a London band led by frontwoman, vocalist, and songwriter Jojo Orme. So far in 2022, they've released one EP and have attracted critical attention mainly for their dark gothic and post-punk vocals (and obsession with uniforms).
The song Warplane is from their debut album, Glutton for Punishment, which is out in a few days.

The Limiñanas - Prisoner of Beauty (feat. Bobby Gillespie)

The Limiñanas is a rock band from Perpignan, France, active since 2009. They have released 12 albums of indie and slightly psychedelic guitar sounds. It's a new band for me, but I'll put them on my radar because that kind of light, playful, and garage pop sound never weighs me down.
The single Prisoner of Beauty, released yesterday, is a preview for their tour.

Von Hertzen Brothers - The Relapse

Von Hertzen Brothers is a Finnish rock band. Founded in 2000 by three brothers, each of them has had a significant music career before with other bands. To date, they have released nine albums.
The Relapse is a single from their latest album, In Murmuration, which is out today. It's pure rock, if you ask me.

Kelly Lee Owens - Love You Got

Kelly Lee Owens is an electronic producer from Wales. Her new album Dreamstate (produced with the help of The Chemical Brothers) shows her great vocal skills for the first time. It is very nice and poppish.
What the music label says:

There’s an incredible feeling of freedom and escapism found. It’s the sound of a person letting loose and letting go while encouraging everyone else to do the same.

The Jesus Lizard - Alexis Feels Sick

The Jesus Lizard, the Chicago band that played its best years there somewhere between 1987 and 1999, also with the help of Steve Albini, and reunited a few more times, is here again, releasing a new seventh studio album, Rack, this September.
They've always been a notion of loud noise rock music, and now is no different. When you hear the new songs, even though it's twenty-six years in between, it's as if they never stopped playing, still very aggressive as ever.

Mannequin Pussy - I Got Heaven

Mannequin Pussy is an American band from Philadelphia that has been on the music scene for over a decade and has transformed over time from a crunchy and screaming noise to a more polished and acceptable indie sound, which still, at times, escapes into scream roots. Anger and chaos are still their refuge when something needs to be said and played.
I Got Heaven is a song and the band's latest fifth album, released in March this year. It's still a good recording from KEXP radio.

NET GALA - Paran

Net Gala is a South Korean DJ and producer, which is new to me. A week ago, he released his debut album, GALAPAGGOT, for Uganda label Hakuna Kulala.
It's a noise and experimental synthetic dancefloor sound with many beats. With a queer identity, he/she/them researches the new hybrid sound spaces, which are entirely unconventional.

Devon Thompson- Sharp Teeth

Devon Thompson is a young musician from Los Angeles. She doesn't have much to listen to so far, a couple of singles and one EP, Skin, which came out recently, but let's say she's trying :)
Anyway, if you've been wandering around the clubs of Los Angeles with a band for a few years, you're on to something. You can hear the history of rock from the sixties to the nineties in her songs.
Maybe there will be more of her; who knows? If Gibson starts sponsoring you, then there'll be something on that.

🎶That's all for today, and enjoy your weekend with new songs!
