Bootsy Collins
You can say that bedrock funk bassist Bootsy Collins is The One, and you would be right on so many levels.
Bootsy Collins
The New Madness
Sometimes rock and roll seems to get stuck in a rut, but The New Madness bring fresh life to a sound that was old before they were born.
Viagra Boys
Viagra Boys don’t care what you think… there’s plenty of room for a saxophone and John Prine covers in the backseat of a 21st century punk band.
Certain Animals
When your arrangements are razor-sharp, your moods mercurial and psychedelic, and your melodies constantly off-kilter, you’re probably a Dutch band like Certain Animals.
Woods
If I could use synesthesia to describe Woods’ music, I would say it sounds like sparkling pastel day-go colors.
Eels
There’s no detail too small or scar too deep for Eels to pick up and examine in a wry musical light.
Young Fresh Fellows
It’s hard to to live up to a name like Young Fresh Fellows when you’ve been at it for almost 40 years, but good time rock and roll never goes out of style.
A Tale of Golden Keys
The effervescent jangle of German trio A Tale of Golden Keys is intricately engineered to make your ears ask “what was that?”
IDLES
I am generally skeptical and disrespectful of band names with special capitalization, but IDLES look and sound like they mean business.
