Eureka California at Vinyl Mag

Eureka California is a hidden gem of Athens, Georgia. While the music scene in The Classic City presents a plethora of dreamy sounds and echo effects, the indie rock duo exudes a sound that samples from the 90’s rock style and references classic authors and musicians alike. With lyrical spin-offs of Simon & Garfunkel and… Continue reading Eureka California at Vinyl Mag

Eureka California at Pop! Stereo

As shambolic as the cover would seem to indicate Eureka California’s Versus is a crazy ride through the indie rock lexicon.  Sounding like a perfect smash up between Daydream Nationera Sonic Youth, Slanted and Enchanted Pavement, a bit of Superchunk and some surf guitarVersus is a noisy wrangled record of chaotic fun.  This is a… Continue reading Eureka California at Pop! Stereo

Witching Waves at Pop! Stereo

Witching Waves’ Crystal Café is a restless record of noisy guitars, sugary sweet vocals and driving rhythms.  Sounding something like the Pixies/Breeders with a bit of riot grrl, Lush and Sonic Youth thrown in for good measure Britain’s Witching Waves create a raucous distorted wall of edginess with just enough pop sensibility to make it… Continue reading Witching Waves at Pop!

Witching Waves at MPMBL

Es geht mit Sicherheit auch eine Nummer kleiner: Gerade hat sich die halbe Wissenschaftswelt wie Bolle darüber gefreut, dass man endlich die Existenz der Einsteinschen Gravitationswellen nachweisen konnte, etwas bescheidener freut sich, wer die Hexenwellen aus London für sich entdeckt: Das Londoner Trio, bestehend aus Emma Wigham (Gesang, Drums), Mark Jasper (Gitarre) und Ed Shellard… Continue reading Witching Waves at MPMBL

Witching Waves at Visions

“Flowers”, die erste Auskopplung des zweiten Albums “Crystal Cafe” des Postpunk-Trios Witching Waves, ist schon eine kluge Finte. Der pluckernde, höhenlastige Basslauf und das monoton-düstere Drumming würde nämlich perfekt zum sonoren, bassigen Bariton eines Ian Curtis oder dem Weltschmerz von The Cure passen. Auf Albumlänge zeigt sich allerdings, dass die Band aus London eher im… Continue reading Witching Waves at Visions

Antlered Aunt Lord at Performer

If the reports are to be believed, then AAL’s Jesse Stinnard is either a bizarre genius that Athens has been hiding for the past decade, or an equally bizarre manifestation of said genius’s cosmic brain waves. Er, where was I? Oh yes, the new vinyl release by this “band” from Athens. Well, let’s not bury… Continue reading Antlered Aunt Lord at Performer

Witching Waves at Bearded Magazine

Sometimes deadpan Sonic Youth, sometimes Veronica Falls trading vocals and sometimes screaming like the Pixies, Witching Wavessecond album conjures a meaner beast from the darkness for the London trio. The main thrust of Crystal Café is the overriding disdain for life and their surroundings. There’s not just a mild sense of peril in the words… Continue reading Witching Waves at Bearded Magazine

Home › Music › Witching Waves “The Threat” Witching Waves “The Threat” New video from Happy Happy Birthday to Me’s Wtiching Waves. The video itself is a macabre nightmare, full of references to classic silent horror movies. The band comes off as a bouncy crunchy post-punk outfit with hooky 70’s death rock tinged choruses. Definitely… Continue reading Witching Waves at Pop Occulture
