The Warning – Keep Fed
Coming out in 2024 with the buzz of label mates Greta Van Fleet, The Warning is a rock and roll sister trio from Monterrey that is showing some serious swagger on their latest record, Keep Fed. Halestorm by way of Queens of the Stone Age are proper touch points here with their Spanish-language single “Que Mas Quieres” holding court as an example of their energized sound.
Honey Joy – Live 100%
With a joyously punk sound in The Ramone’s territory, the infectious single from their latest album sounds like an 80’s classic. “The world’s on fire and maybe I drink too much.”
Shotgun Mistress – Mary Jane
Borrowing Electric Mary’s Rusty Brown for some vocal swapping, this single from Kings of the Revolution could have been on a flyer ripped down from a light pole on the Sunset Strip in 1979. These guys will make Ratt, Aerosmith, and Motley Crue blush.
Gyasi – Rock N’ Roll Swordfight
It takes some real self-confidence to come out with a second record that is a live recording, but when you have the swagger of a lion in a field of sheep you make your own rules. The entirety of Rock N’ Roll Swordfight blasts across your speakers like a Kiss or Bowie ‘74 bootleg putting the glam in glam-rock.
Recorded old-school live in small venues across the country the songs from “Cheap High” to “Sugar Mama” assault your senses the way MC-5 and Kiss did back in the day. This is the party-hardy record you need for these wretched times.
Redd Kross – Candy Coloured Catastrophe
And, speaking of Glam, this time of the Power Pop variety, we are clicking our heels to the blast from the past latest single from Canadian stalwarts Redd Kross and “Candy Coloured Catastrophe.”
