Goat - Goathead

Awesome new band from Sweden. New album out now called "World Music".
A healthy mix of Afrobeat funk, Post Punk Guitars and an Experimental Atmosphere.
Here's a small taste

Sonic Jesus - Monkey On My Back

New band from Italy, seeking a record label.
Think of the Black Angels with a twist of Potishead

Chris Cohen - Caller No. 99

Today Greg Saunier (Deerhoof's excellent drummer) tweeted that Chris Cohen has a new song and is about to put out a new album.

Chris use to be a member of Deerhoof a couple of years ago, during which they released Apple O', Milk-Man and The Runners Four, which are my favorite albums of the band and it might very well has something to do with Cohen's involvement in them.

Chris is also involved in the band The Curtains, which offers an arty take on little minimalistic tunes.
I couldn't really relate to their music very much but this new song really shows a different catchier side to Cohen and hold a promise for a nice new album that will be called "Overgrown Path".

New Order - Live from 1981

It's been a while since I've put anything up on the classic live section of The Daily Soup but today I've got a gem here.

Only a few days after their debut album 'Movement' was released on 1981, New Order set off to New-York and preformed live at The Ukrainian National Home.

The first few songs are a bit raw but it gets better along the way. (Jump ahead to the third minute where the show actually starts).

Turbo Fruits

So I've been listening a bit this week to the awesome Wub-Fur radio and stumbled across this great band that's called 'Turbo Fruits'.

A quick look see on the interwebs led me to the fact that the main dude, Jonas Stein, used to be in the late & great 'Be Your Own Pet'.
These guys already have a couple of albums out and a bundle off EP's and singles in which they deal a hefty dose of Psychedelic Garage Rock and other goodness.
A new album named 'Butter' is due out soon and I'm very much looking forward to it.
In the meantime you can have a look at a couple of their videos here. Seems like the knack for making silly & idiotic videos have stayed with Jonas since his days in BYOP.

This video induced a petit mal on my behalf.



You can grab a few song as a free download on their bandcamp page.

Metric - Speed The Collapse

Montreal's Metric are about to release their new album 'Synthetica' very soon and here a small taster from it.

A second single on their soundcloud page called 'Speed of Collapse' appears after they posted 'Youth Without Youth' a couple of weeks ago.

Jake Bugg - Lightning Bolt

Jake Bugg, a young lad from Nottingham, is something you should pay close attention to in the following months.

He's working on his debut album, which should come out on October 2012, and he reminds a lot of Lee Mavers from The La's.
The fact is that Mr. Bugg is so young that he was born a few good years after that band disbanded.

Oh, well. No matter, have a listen to this



You can download it from iTunes and also get a free song through his facebook page.

Keytar Woman Is The New Sexy

Some of you may know Amanda Palmer as the voice of the famed cabaret-rock duo The Dresden Dolls, you may also know her as the wife of the writer Neil Gaiman, but as it happens, she is also an avid twitter operator with quite a following.

So in case you're not following her twitter page and didn't see this video she posted, I thought I should share the joy with you.

It's all about a new and developing art form that combines pole dancing and music making.
Enjoy

The Afghan Whigs - See And Don't See

As you may know The Afghan Whigs have recently announced a reunion tour and pretty excited 'cos I'm about to catch one of those shows next month.

On the tidal wave of this tour they have decided to release a new(ish) song, the first recording in five years as they mentioned in their website (though I can't really recall any Afghan activity round 2007).

It's actually a cover version of an early 70's song by southern soul singer Marie "Queenie" Lyons called "See And Don't See".

You can download it right here (by entering your email).

Gulp - Game Love

Only a few days ago I wrote here about the new solo project from the Super Furry Animals keyboard player, Cian Ciaran, and now we have some more new stuff from the merry ol' Welsh psych masters.

SFA's bassist Guto Pryce and vocalist Lindsay Leven, known under the moniker of Gulp, have released their first single "Game Love" along with some help on the drums and mixing from their furry friends.

What can I say, this band is just the gift that keeps giving.
