Tom Minor – The Manic Phase
Tom Minor – London’s answer to a whiskey-soaked, existential panic attack set to music – just lobbed a four-track Molotov cocktail into the void. “The Manic Phase” is a snarling, soul-drenched odyssey through neon-lit back alleys and crumbling psyches. Produced by Teaboy Palmer (rightly crowned “the Phil Spector of Finchley Road, NW3”), this is chaos with a heartbeat: power-pop hooks mugged by […]
Blueprint Tokyo – Neon Circuits and the Mission of Hope
Oklahoma City’s Blueprint Tokyo is launching a goddamn noise doctrine with “Neon Circuits and the Mission of Hope,” their hotly anticipated 16-track debut full-length album – yeah, a double-album guts move in this ADHD age – out now via Spectra Music.
