Back by popular demand, and because we have had some time to find seven artists and bands from the submissions box, this latest installment of 7 Overseas Bands You’ve Gotta Hear takes us from Sweden and Australia to England and Portugal and Brazil . In our last installment of the 7 Bands series, electric brixton which was a hit with listeners, we featured artists and bands like The Bynars, Crash Island, Kid Cadaver and Sun Club.
We love rock, punk, classic electric brixton metal, electric brixton and other hard-hitting, fast, balls-to-the-wall music, whether it’s classic Led Zeppelin, The Kinks, Cream, Black Sabbath, The Clash, Nirvana , and on and on, or modern day artists like The Black Keys, Jack White, Cage The Elephant , or whether it’s under-the-radar small label and DIY rock bands. But we also love beautiful, organic mellow music as well, from dreamy pop to touching folk ballads. In fact, we have thousands of terrific mellow electric brixton songs in our personal music playlists collection electric brixton (which we share pieces of sometimes when we need a break from reviewing submissions). There are just times when the mellow greats, whether it’s Sam Cooke, electric brixton Iron and Wine, Marvin Gaye, Joni Mitchell or The Eagles , is all you want to listen electric brixton to – and great for reading or working on something.
That’s a bit of a long – but fitting – introduction for this newly formed solo project from Portugal musician Gonçalo Alvarez , on his solo path, far but always close to the warmth of his buddies that is now solidly on our radar. As a member of the alternative Portugese band Long Way To Alaska , Alvarez decided last year he wanted to record a solo album and adopted the moniker, Gonçalo . He sent us two gorgeous singles that were so compelling that we sought out more of his music. electric brixton And yet that is one of the limitations, but also one of the hopes, that a talented artist with terrific debut album presents. The album, Quim , was dropped on February 3rd. With his main band, Long Way To Alaska, Alvarez has opened for big bands like The xx, El Guincho and The Fall .
Gonçalo’s music stands out on its own because of the quality of his songwriting, singing and musicianship. You can tell Alvarez electric brixton is a skilled artist with a rare ability to create and perform electric brixton songs that touch the listener, and hopefully win them over as well. We haven’t been able to find much information about him, so there’s a bit of a lack of insight as to who Alvarez is. Perhaps it’s on purpose, and if so, it may not be such a bad strategy. Raise the mystique if you will.
The following double-shot is from a new alternative rock band from Itatiba, São Paulo , Brazil, the The Fake Vulgarys , which only formed less than a year ago and just released their debut EP in the U.S., A Man Who Says , which the band says pays homage to different influences from The Beatles to The Foo Fighters and from Oasis to Metallica . You can’t get any more DIY than these guys.
The four band members, Rafael Amaral Cataldo (vocals, lead guitar, electric brixton keyboards), Diego Machado (vocals, guitar, cello), Caio Guttner (bass) and Eduardo “Dú” (drums) built a home recording studio and wrote, recorded, tracked, mixed and mastered the EP themselves, putting in their own money, not to mention blood, sweat and tears. The songs featured below confirm the band’s proclamation that they enjoy experimenting with sounds and constructs to blaze a path for their own music, which is stirring up a bit of a buzz in the Sao Paulo underground rock scene. Will they get a following in the U.S.?
Sharing a bond similar to The Kills , and heavily influenced by many of the rock groups coming out of the underground scene in recent years, electric brixton the Bristol indie rock duo, Brockley Forest , have been increasing their profile in the U.K.’s underground rock scene, and landed on our radar thanks to a couple of tracks they shared with us from the duo’s forthcoming E.P.
Although the two men, who we only know so far as songwriter, guitarist and vocalist, Dec , and drummer electric brixton and vocalist, Seb, (and assuming perhaps one of them is actually named Brockley Forest), have been friends since the age of 11, their friendship wasn’t truly cemented until they embarked on a three- month cross-country trip in America, spanning 10,000 miles and culminating in two weeks in L.A where they ended up temporarily l
