Watch: Modern Baseball – “Your Graduation”

Modern Baseball Press
Modern Baseball via Noisey have premiered their new music video for “Your Graduation” from their sophomore effort You’re Gonna Miss It All on Run For Cover Records. It kicks off with the ever so familiar voicemail message from the answering machine on their debut Sports. It then cuts between girlfriends and snowy community vibes, backside flips and general bummertime, and I’m pretty damn sure there was a Superman cameo somewhere in there. Also it’s pretty cool that there is some parallel scenes connected to their video for The Weekend thrown in, good job Kyle Thrash. Watch the video below, pick up their new album here, and follow them on Facebook!

Watch: MT – “A Change Is Gonna Come”

MT were originally going to play the grand opening of the new venue in Hackney on December 2nd, until an emergency demolition of a neighbouring building meant the venue had to close until this month. The rescheduled London show at Oslo on January 30th will also feature a DJ set from Is Tropical, and tickets are currently available for free to all those who subscribe on MT’s website.

Following the release of their anthemic new single Alpha Romeo at the end of 2013 which Lost In The Sound covered here, they have released a stunning new cover of Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come”. Watch the cover below, be sure to subscribe for free tickets, and check out their Twitter, Facebook and Big Cartel for 7″ vinyls, and tie dye band shirts.

 

Watch: Clockwork Noise – “The Tourists”

Clockwork Noise Press
Irish five-piece outfit Clockwork Noise are fascinated by juxtaposition – the marriage of quiet and loud, classical and contemporary, pretty and ugly, chaos and order. Their debut album Whethermachines is the culmination of a long journey exploring this concept. A large number of their songs evolved from two years of performing live, which spun into an intense pre-production phase, marshaled by Torsten Kinsella of God Is An Astronaut and finally after several years of experimentation nine tracks were cemented into place by Ivan Jackman of Silverline Studios. The last song of the full-length, “The Tourists” provides a good taster for the combination of all these ideas integrating a refined string section, frantic digital noise, delicate harmonising, intricate guitar work, and sincere vocals and lyrics. Watch the point of view music video for the track below. Stream their debut record on Soundcloud, download it for free on Bandcamp and check out their website for more information.

Watch: Gorgeous George – “When I Go Out On Saturday”

Gorgeous George Press

Formed in the marriage between balkan folk and South London estate life, seven-piece outfit Gorgeous George have released a five track EP titled “Saturday Night”. With a unique blend of strings, percussion and brass instruments, Gorgeous George sound like a combination between gypsy punk band Gogol Bordello, UK two tone group The Specials and Cosmo Jarvis. Watch the music video below for their distinctly British single When I Go Out on Saturday, an ode to late nights, excessive intoxication and chicken ‘n’ chips. Stream their new EP here, buy it on iTunes, and follow the band on Facebook!

Watch: The Orwells – “Dirty Sheets”

The Orwells by Virgillo Tzaj
The Orwells have released a new music video for their track Dirty Sheets directed by Eddie O’Keefe of The Teenage Head. The video consists of a stripper removing clothing until being solely clad in retro underwear holding a 12″ of the titular track. The song itself is a raunchy garage punk anthem about one night stands and presumably touring after playing shows nationally with FIDLAR. With recording sessions in London and New York their next record is on the way, as well as a tour with Arctic Monkeys in the US around February. Pick up the new single on iTunes, check out 2014 tour dates here, and sacrifice your email for a free copy of their ‘Other Voices’ EP here.
