Acid Glasses – JPEG Hoarder

17 August 2011

Acid Glasses

After being fully absorbed into the summer vibes of My Pale Garden, Acid Glasses (aka Tennessee’s Nick Burk), I’m happy to announce that the single is getting a good ‘ole 7″ release on London’s Stroll On Records on October 10th.

The b-side of My Pale Garden is going to be JPEG Hoarder, which follows the warm production, 60s groove and chaotic nature of the single as it lulls you into that trippy kaleidoscopic dreamland.

…and Acid Glasses is also featured on a fantastic new mixtape from Cactus-Mouth with another new track Amends.

No Ceremony - Hurtlove

In this world of hype and superficial buzz, it makes it even more special when something just breaks through the clouds on merit, and Manchester’s No Ceremony have just such an offering with Hurtlove.

Its simple cathedral-echoed piano chords set the scene of a grand opening before the tracks falls into near ambience with distorted yet harmonious vocals and loose beats. It stands alone overlooking the wasteland as a ray of hope, a new beginning.

The band are called The Thinking Men and a song from their debut EP is called ‘I Think, Therefore I Am’. I don’t know about you, but I’m sensing a definite theme here. This philosophising trio, hailing from Norwich, offer up gritty and seductive bluesy rock with all sorts of folk and alternative influenced twists and turns.

With vocals to make you quiver and slide guitar to get you dancing, The Thinking Men are fun, unique and interesting. It all comes together marvellously well, and there’s something tenacious yet still beautiful about the music they make.

Don’t take my word for it – have a listen to the SoundCloud tracks on offer below, including free single ‘Whiskey and Milk’ (available here as a free download). The latter will be stuck in your head forever more after a single listen. Or maybe I’m just extremely susceptible to a bit of catchy-modern-blues-with-a-twist.

The Thinking Men release their debut EP ‘Mirror Test’ this November, with a launch party in the heart of the Norwich music scene at the wonderful Bicycle Shop venue. We’ll keep you updated.
