Love Your Witch – A Journey into the Unknown
Album | 11/05/2023 | Reality Rehab Records / Fantasticore Productions
Stoner Thrash / Stoner Metal
Tel Aviv Yafo, Israel
What we get to hear on the new album by Love Your Witch is a combination of early-day Heard Rock and Proto Metal in the veins of Wishbone Ash with some more contemporary Doom and Stoner sounds. The final ingredient is the use of oriental scales which add some extra spark to the sound. A Journey into the Unknown is dark, heavy, and full of thrill.
7/10 Mangoes
Bring the Hoax – Single Coil Candy
Album | 12/05/2023 | Lövely Records
Alternative Rock / Indie Rock
Stockholm, Sweden
Between minimalism and catchy choruses, Bring the Hoax produce a sound to move the masses with. With heavy fuzz on the one hand and autotune on the other, the quartet knows how to settle in the listeners‘ ears. For long rides and for long nights, this album is a great background sound.
5/10 Mangoes
The Crimson Ghosts – Forevermore
Album | 12/05/2023 | Ring of Fire Records
Horror Punk / Hardcore Punk
Cologne, Germany
Horror Punk as a musical has an obvious parallel with the classic films that the music is often influenced by. There are some classics whom almost everyone loves, there are spin-offs, hidden gems, and there are some artists who try to reinvent the wheel. On their new album, The Crimson Ghosts present some fresh ideas, provide lots of entertainment, but basically stay within the typical lines that demarcate the genre.
4/10 Mangoes
The Dead Krazukies – Captain Crust
Single | 12/05/2023 | SBÄM Records / Kicking Records
Skate Punk / Skatecore
Hossegor, France
If Power Metal was less pathetic and more Punk Rock, maybe it could sound like this. Five weeks before the release of their new longplayer From the Underworld, The Dead Krazukies enchant us with a real banger. Captain Crust is an anthem for the skate parks and all the spaces around and between them.
7/10 Mangoes
Hot Breath – Keepn on calling
Single | 12/05/2023 | The Sign Records
Garage Rock / Heavy Rock
Gothenburg, Sweden
In the recent past, Hot Breath have proven that they can create instant hits on the assembly line. For the beginning of the upcoming festival season, the quartet is back with another banger to make your body move. Sitting still is not an option here.
8/10 Mangoes
Modern Mimes – Heavy Hearts
Single | 12/05/2023 | Independent
Alternative Rock / Modern Rock
Fort Lauderdale, CA, USA
Modern Mimes started as a duo in 2016, and continued as a trio 2018, and they create music that comes straight from the osul or from the Heavy Heart. The South Californian band plays the sound of the empathetic and yet dark minds. Their new single Heavy Heart is a legit anthem for those who can relate with this.
6/10 Mangoes
Thotcrime – A better Kind of Shot
Single | 12/05/2023 | Independent
Cybergrind
Champaign-Urbana, IL, USA / Philadelphia, PA, USA / Nottingham, England
This song was originally featured on the Trans Right or Else! compilation which was published by Nu House Studios. Now, intercontinental band Thotcrime have released A better Kind of Shot as a single. The sound is vibrant, extraordinary, loud and wild.
