    Calories // New Album

    by James Byrne

    Calories have released their new album Basic Nature, which really is anything but basic in nature. On ‘Basic Nature,’ Calories produce an album with plenty of frenetic and noisy guitars, energetic vocals and a potentially anthemic lead single. This is out today, 20th September, on Tough Love Records, but if you’re still not convinced you can also stream the album for free on their Bandcamp page. http://www.myspace.com/caloriesband http://toughloverecords.bandcamp.com/...

    Aeroplane // New Single

    by James Byrne

    Everybody’s second favourite Belgian band Aeroplane, although I guess you can’t really call them a band since it’s now a solo project for Vito De Luca, are ready to release the second single from their upcoming album, We Can’t Fly. ‘Superstar’ is a piano led piece with heavily vocodered vocals, which were infact provided by Vito, and big crashing cymbals. The man himself has described it as, “Moroder meets Canned Heat,” and who am I to argue with that. Even more... (continued) [read more]
