Ayron Jones – Glad You Came<\/p>\n

Oooooh hello Alice In Chains! Or rather, 21st-century Seattle star Ayron Jones, though there\u2019s a very generous nod to Cantrell and co in this thumpingly oomphy, roughened hard rock beefcake. Brooding, groovy and shot through with Jones\u2019 soul-gravel voice and strident, Kravitz-y guitar soloing, it\u2019s a seriously appetising first taste of his next album, Excuse Me \u2013 his first in three years, and due out in the new year.<\/p>\n

\nNicotine Dolls – Gimme Sympathy<\/p>\n

One of the on-the-rise groups worth having on your radar, Nicotine Dolls make a deliciously cool, filthy racket on Gimme Sympathy, all thick swaggering guitars, stomping drums and, in frontman Sam Cieri (he hit the spotlight via America\u2019s Got Talent, but don\u2019t let that put you off), a singer with the raw power and drive of a prize-fighter pushing hard for his first title. Need a hit of straight-shooting, punchily executed rock\u2019n\u2019roll? You could do a lot worse than this.<\/p>\n

\nJoanne Shaw Taylor – Never Gonna Please \u2018Em All<\/p>\n

We love Joanne\u2019s ballads (smooth yet nuanced affairs with feet in pop and soul, at least as much as the blues), but it\u2019s toe-tapping bluesy rock\u2019n\u2019rollers like this that tend to really stick with us. Never Gonna Please Em All rocks, rolls and struts like Stevie Ray Vaughan trading licks with Joe Bonamassa \u2013 capped with the kind of classy, powerful Telecaster solo of which she\u2019s a master at this point. Nice.<\/p>\n

\nEddie 9V – Satisfy The Way I Do<\/p>\n

The Atlanta-bred Auerbach protege channels his sunkissed Al Green side on this soulful lil\u2019 number from his excellent upcoming album, Down Here. Smooth yet toe-tapping and naturally packed with cool colour (swampy funk, blues rock\u2019n\u2019roll, RN\u2019B\u2026) it affirms him as one of Nashville\u2019s current crop of smart, rootsy voices to keep an eye out for \u2013 maybe even catch him live, when he comes to the UK in March 2027.<\/p>\n

\nFloor Jansen – Everything Is Moving On<\/p>\n

Out of Nightwish and diving into a new solo chapter, symphonic metal\u2019s own Xena Warrior Princess punches high and hard on this latest single \u2013 think leather-booted theatre, strings and heavy guitars, with a swooping, stirring pop melody at the heart of it all. \u201cFor me, this song is about being awake to the life you have now,\u201d Floor says. \u201cWe so easily tell ourselves we\u2019ll do something later, but life keeps moving. Enjoy it, take the chances that matter to you, and make choices that feel right for who you are and where you want to go. Sometimes that also means letting go of things that no longer feel right.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nScarlet Rebels – God\u2019s Honest Truth<\/p>\n

The Welsh rockers continue to up their game on this pensive, mid-tempo banger from their next album Flawed By Design. Written as singer\/guitarist Wayne Doyle processed the death of a friend, contemplating \u201cwhat the point of it all was\u201d, it marries emotive, nuanced melody with big driving guitars. Contemporary rock\u2019n\u2019roll with an old school heart and dashes of grunge in its veins.<\/p>\n

\nThe Lemon Twigs – Look For Your Mind<\/p>\n

The Lemon Twigs’ most recent album Look For Your Mind arrived in May, and now the title track has received single status. It’s exactly what you’d expect from the D’Addario brothers, with a lolloping Ticket To Ride-style pop-psychedelic sound augmented by the kind of apparently effortless songwriting that’s become their trademark. Throw in some Byrds, some Nazz, even some Monkees, and you’ve got the gist. Lovely stuff.<\/p>\n

\nHenge – Brains<\/p>\n

And now for something completely different, as celestial rave-proggers Henge conjure up a squelching, demented hunk o’ disco space rock. The spectral magnificence of Brains is accentuated by a video which finds the band performing inside an actual brain, which must surely be a first for any type of music, including that produced by musicians from another planet. “The human brain is truly a thing of wonder,” says frontcreature Zpor. “And I naturally felt compelled to write an ode to it.” We presume that the rest of the band \u2013 Goo, Sol and Nom \u2013 agree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Follow us Add us as a preferred source on Google Newsletter Subscribe to our newsletter Our Tracks Of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":657346,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[146,85,46,409],"class_list":["post-657345","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=657345"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657345\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/657346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=657345"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=657345"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=657345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
