[NEW ALBUM] Royal Baths - Better Luck Next Life
Exactly seven days ago the Royal Baths released their garage rock 60’s psych inspired album Better Luck Next Life on Kanine Records. The dangerously provocative video above was created for the third track on the album “Faster Harder.” Think of it as a naughty Valentines Day treat.
Stream the full album below and if you love their seductive dark rock and roll as much as I do then you can grab it right here.
Son Cats - O’Dell / 1971 7”
When I first heard this split I wrote tot he band and said it felt like 1970’s rock had come back and smacked me in the face. It’s a good smack, but it’s hard and you damn well whats his you.
Son Cat is a psychedelic garage-rock group hailing from Portland, OR. The vocals remind me of the Beatles in the late 60’s early 70’s especially on “O’Dell.” Alex Reed Wilson howls and rips on the guitar and Jasmine Dreame Wagner thrashes the drums. The split was recorded by Alex Wilson and mixed by the band using Wilson’s Tascam 488 8-track machine. The tracks were mastered straight to vinyl so they were truly able to achieve that authentic 70’s rock sound. Listening to these tracks is like jumping in a rock and roll time machine. Throw on some headphones and get ready to be beamed back to 1971.
The White Stripes - Under the Great Northern Lights
As many of you must know by now we love all things Jack White from the White Stripes to the Raconteurs and of course The Dead Weather. As far as this Vagabond is concerned Jack White has proven over and over again that he can do no wrong.
We told you all that It Might Get Loud is not to be missed and we feel the same way about their new documentary, Under the Great Northern Lights. Above is a teaser for the documentary which come out today along with CD titled under the same name. The film documents all of the free shows the White Stripes played in Canada promoting Icky Thump as well as some more intimate and unique shows in cafes, bowling allies, YMCA’s and buses. You’ll also get a look at their daily life on tour and testimonials from fans. If you are a White Stripes fan or a Jack White fan this DVD and CD is a must. You can purchase them here.
