Don’t be worried that their band name sounds like the title of an Adult Swim show, Curse of Lono have just turned in a shockingly sweet debut that is equal parts Teenage Fanclub and a gothic Big Star. Together for just a year, the London-based five piece put out a dark, smart soundscape that seems like a soundtrack to a Tom Waits’ dream. In fact, the four-songs on this self-titled…
Anything Goes is punctuated by a rapid lyrical flow in the vein of Bone Thugs & Harmony. Hints of horrorcore and street rap approaches that are threaded in the backing beat to this single makes this cut something that a wide swath of fans can appreciate. I particularly like the callback to the 1990s California scene of Too Short and E-40 with Casting Call; the Spartan production here allows listeners’ focus…
Dark, brooding, and grave in its opening, World Void Web’s Think Void ensures that listeners will be on the edges of their seats by the time that Snore of a 100 Crore ends. The track deftly blends vocal snippets with industrial and traditional Indian musics, making for something that is wholly unique. Where most artists would struggle to corral such a diverse array of styles, World Void Web is able to…
The recent desire of universal and other companies to create and otherwise refresh the vinyl market is fantastic, as I recall there being a number of years in the late 90s and early 2000 where a great many albums either received a tiny print run or did not get a vinyl release outside of a 12-inch single.
Everything Rhymes With Orange is an 8% IPA brewed by Midwest City, Oklahoma’s Roughtail Brewing. The beer pours with a dark yellow to orangish color, hazy as all get out with a fair amount of sudsy white head. Everything Rhymes With Orange is a good bridge between the traditional West Coast India Pale Ale and the juicier East Coast style that has began to dominate brewery’s hoppy efforts. This means that there…
Corvaa’s Zipper is a dance track that hearkens back to the early 1990s for inspiration, all while including the expressive synths and emotive arrangements that are a hallmark of current EDM.
Mark Newman’s Scapegoat is a lively track that links together blues with a down-home type of southern rock. A sizzling guitar immediately draws listeners in, while a vocal approach that is reminiscent of ZZ Top and 38 Special will keep listeners on the edges of their seats until the final notes of the single.
The 1983 TV special Motown 25 was a defining moment in TV for many. Michael Jackson was at one of the highest peaks in his career and he slayed the crowd with hit after hit. It was also the moment when the world first discovered what Moonwalking was, as Jackson demonstrated it for the first time publicly on “Billie Jean.” Despite that pop cultural moment, the show was crammed with…
![The Verve – A Northern Soul [Super Deluxe Edition]](https://neufutur.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2015TheVerve_ANorthernSoul_010715.jpg)
Though the UK-based Brit Pop/Shoegaze band The Verve will likely always be best remembered in the U.S. as those lads that got busted borrowing a little too freely from The Rolling Stones on their massive hit “Bittersweet Symphony,” they were (up until their last spit in 2009) a massively talented band that could combine loud abrasive guitars with sweet melodies and strong pop hooks.
Occurrence create a unique form of indie-pop music that touches upon a wide variety of influences over the course of The Past Will Last Forever, their latest album.

We had just gotten to the point where our child has moved away to some degree from their bottle and has the coordination that is required to begin using a sippy cup. The amount of horror stories that exist regarding the ability of sippy cups to take up gross and outright dangerous things like mold and mildew is considerable. We had been using products from the dollar store due to…

More information about Generals of the Yang Family will be released in the upcoming months.
Today, we are speaking with Memphis’ Mahogany Dannie. How did you get into music? Well to start, I was that child in the youth choir that just had to sing louder than everyone else because I loved singing and wanted to be heard. It also didn’t help that my parents were huge Jackson fans, so we would find ourselves pretending to be one of The Jacksons and putting on concerts…

The deliberate sound of the instrumentation on this first track on Standard Candles ensures that listeners will be on the edges of their seats; where will Ames ultimately go in the follow-up to this introductory salvo?
Clif Bars are one of our go-to snacks when it comes to trips and other outings and it always seems as if the company creates new varieties on the regular. We’ve had some amazing variants in terms of their pumpkin bars from a few years back but we’re a little trepidation when it came to their new Nut Butter Filled bars. In fact we weren’t sold on the new products when…
Doing OK links together the styles of Akon, T-Pain, and Wyclef Jean into a hopeful sort of track, while Lavish Living slows things up to allow Tion Wayne to have a little bit of the vocal snarl of a 50 Cent or Rick Ross. An infectious hook is all that is needed to turn Bae into a radio-ready single.
