Jenny Lee Lindberg aka jennylee is the Warpaint's bass guitarist who also sings the backing vocals, assumption maybe influences her to take this step releasing her debut single, 'Never', which will be followed for her debut album "right on!" on December 11 via Rough Trade Records featuring among others, Warpaint drummer Stella Mozgawa.


Her debut single approaches the summer time due to the guitar riffs inspired by surf, sun and the beach, being these ones, on the one hand, dreamer, and on the other, melancholy and dramatic. And this occur while Joy Division's post punk takes positions to withdraw themselves across the length and the breadth of the song, showing herself sensual at the microphone with a Warpaint moment when she sings to the sky against the skittering drums.

The Gloomies - LSD 7"

The singer-songwriter Andrew Craig together with the drummer Chris Trombley as well as the guitarists Blake Martz and Grant Martz, formed The Gloomies, and based in California, taking shape three songs that conform their first 7", called "LSD".

The eponymous song opens the can hitting your mind through DIIV or all your summer memories you experienced a couple months ago, which it means for Andrew to leave behind New York and move to California, printing a Kill Bill warm version doing this movement worst that looks like. At the end the last Tame Impala comes to my mind with the second part of 'Groves', because the first one is reserved for the poppy version of the first The Weeknd and their R'n'B before the song is wrapped for the "Currents" magic of the Australian band.

BLACK ABBA

4-piece supergroup, three female and one male, featuring members of Trampoline Team, Buck Biloxi & The Fucks, Gary Wrong Group and the Pelican Pow Wow Records top dog with a name formed by their major influences, Black Sabbath and ABBA (believe or not, it will be your fault).

'Man In A Van' is their first single and automatically, after pressing play, you are wrapped by the same NOTS instrumentation, spatial synth and shouting female vocals which are also inside 'Sorry', but here they show themselves crazier, vocals are out of step and hallucinogenic, transporting us to an spatial fair where everything turns around our heads. Both of them are included in their debut EP, via Holotrash Records and condensed in a five song cassette.

Las Tetas

From Auckland, Las Tetas, meaning tits, are a trio comprising of Lucy Stewart, Charlotte Gallichan-Stewart and Kristal G, so now it's clear why this name, right? 

Two years ago, they published their first 7" via 1:12 Records under the name "You're Not Invited", where they put their evil punk. Since then, their riot grrrl attitude join them in each song, go mad themselves and the audience who accept the challenge to hear them. Along the eight songs they have uploaded in their Soundcloud account, 'The Plains' makes the pop respite, sounding like authentic angels who haven't broken a plate in their lives. 'Lullaby' represents in this case their instrumental stone garage face.

Sykoya

Anna Marcella (lead vocals & keys), Alejandro Bonatto (synth), Eduardo Leal (bass & backing vocals) and Curtis ElVidge (electronic and acoustic drums) shape the line-up of the electronic-dreampop newcomers band, Sykoya.

It doesn't take long before one realizes that 'Closer', their debut single, has elements in common with the last Warpaint sounds, but in this case without guitars. The  two types of drums and synth introduce the sweet voice of Anna, and it's not until Eduardo joins the track with his voice and bass, when he opens the door to all members to create the spatial climate reinforced thanks to the reverberation. The nice end is Anna in all her glory playing and singing and away from everything.
