Another great rock song to wake everyone up.

A. Swayze & The Ghosts are a band from the city of Hobart in Tasmania, probably better known as a post-punk/alternative-rock band rather than Spotify's Australian garage punk, so whatever.

Confess I have not come across then before, so another thumbs up to the AI crawler.

Check out 'Connect To Consume' from their 2020 album 'Paid Salvation'.

Punk Rock on!

Game Over has such a great energy.

Thought I had not come across them before, only see they were in a playlist back in 2022, with their ‘Lost Without You’ single, from July that year.

Twenty-two was a transit year for me, so I excuse myself, and will keep an eye on them from now on.

Spyres are a four-piece indie/alternative-rock band from Glasgow, Scotland.

As I said, one to follow.

Right, first off that song title.

Frankly no idea. And reading the lyrics may inlighten to the fact this is a love song, but not if the title is metaphorical.

So screw it, just listen the song.

Had come accross these guys, sorry girls, with the song ‘Trouble’ off their 2022 album ‘Here Is Everything’. Yes, that album art goes with that song!

The Big Moon formed as indie-rock quartet in 2014, and are London based.

Another interesting song and album from them all round.

Two firsts for this site.

One, this is the first time I link to a song that is on the SoundCloud platform, and two, the first time a new release is featured via a direct artist contact, which is great.

Check out this song’s video, it’s too cool - you have to do that via the insite web page, here: ‘Riser Video’.

Yes, I know, the beady-eyed will see that it was first released 3 years ago, so I’m calling this one a re-release, but who’s counting.

Check it out on the site as well.

Another one for me to say ‘He’s Back!”.

Albin Lee Meldau is a Swedish singer-songwriter from Gothenburg, who’s last work was the album “Discomforts” back in September 2024.

Have been listeing to this guy for a while, every since ‘Let Me Go’ (2016), only it was ‘Singoalla’, from his 2018 Album 'About You' that really hit my repeat plays for that year.

It's that voice that combines classic soul, blues, folk and pop that's so great.

And this new release sure does it justice.
