ROADHOUSES / Self-titled
Three piece lo-fi trio, Roadhouses from Sydney, Australia released their self-titled album this year and I'm surprised it slipped right by me. The dreamy and hazy "codeine tempo anti-romance songs" as described by the band, holds a candle to lo-fi whimsical acts like Mazzy Star, Elysian Fields and Cigarettes after sex. Roadhouses doesn't lean on the genre like a crutch but rather reawakens that sultry groove in their own image. Yvonne Moxham's vocals are both sensual and soothing and transport you to a seedy motel room and find you there with a glass of gin in hand.
Roadhouses commissioned their cover artwork from the incredibly talented Nedda Afsari (aka MutedFawn) and it is the perfect visual homage to the band's sound. And you take a second look you'll spy that the femme fatale on the cover is in fact musician Foie Gras.

SURE // "Precious Words"
The Paris-based three-piece SURE have found a new home with Weyrd Sons Records and unleashed their first single from the upcoming debut album. Precious Words' heart pumping electronica is hypnotic and adrenaline inducing and is complemented even more so by the dark wave vocals which guide you through a psychedelic electro dreamscape.

[PREMIERE] OFFERMOSE // "Mørkt Forår" (featuring Of The Wand & The Moon, Grift.)
The title track Mørkt Forår is a dark venture into an unknown sojourn where we meet somewhere between our first and last breath. Offermose perfectly crafts an audible experience that is both immersive and evocative. Through a mixture of ambient sounds, strings and nostalgic synth, Mørkt Forår superbly fuses eclectic soundscapes that unravel into ascension and dissolution.
If the debut track is anything to go by the full length album out this October will be a masterful journey into the somber and articulate underwood of Offermose.
"I saw the seasons change like stages of putrefaction in my decaying flesh Spring came darkest of all sprouting death-like flowers through puss-filled pores Silent screams choked by earth echoed in my skull from a thousand dead Bodies buried deep below forever suffocating in their final breath" - Offermose
This release is a collaboration between Third Coming Records (Paris/Copenhagen) and Pomperipossa Records (Sweden) the label run by Anna Von Hausswolff.
The full length album Mørkt Forår will be released October 12th.
