Marc Valentine – ‘Death Is Overrated\/Break My Heart Anyway’ (Arcane Wires Records)<\/span><\/strong>  \u2018Death Is Overrated\u2019 c\/w \u2018Break My Heart Anyway\u2019 is out This is his third solo single, \u2018Death Is Overrated\u2019 features special guess Wreckless Eric which both tracks are lifted from the superb solo album ‘Future Obscure’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marc said he wanted to release two tracks as a perfect taster to the album and show how varied the record is. The opener is a dreamy retro slice of power pop balladeering from Valentine, Exactly what you’d expect but to be fair its of the highest quality. The AA Side is more a party on your stereo as the band go for a steady backbeat and a real slice of sunshine Rock n Roll over a backdrop of perfectly labeled Summer trash pop! Wonderful track – Record of the week? It certainly is!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gong Rats – (I Want Some) Cereal’ (Dragstrip Records) <\/span><\/strong> What a banger. Plain and simple this is bullshit-free Punk Rock n Roll, Its Motorhead meets the Ramones with some twisted synth added for good measure. It’ll make you hungry for punk n roll if you diet on nothing but this noise. Rapid, energetic, beautiful noise is what it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of the wacky lyrics its got a bucket load of energy and that’s the point Feast on this<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chuck Norris Experiment – ‘All Your Bridges Are Burning’ (Bandcamp)<\/span><\/strong> A track that originally came out on their 7″ album – yeah? what of it? From sub-one minute to a full almost three minutes of hard rockin punk attitude loud rock and roll CNE are in the Club baby and they’ve brought their fleshed out big guns. It’s fair to say this ones is a banger, no-nonsense, Bullshit free Hard Rockin shit. CNE do it by the dozen. they simply don’t do bad records and one of our favourite Swedish exports are at it again. New music please gents you’ve had almost two years off now we want more loud guitars and we want them now and if they sound like this then play on! Now where did I leave my flame thrower? those Bridges aren’t going to burn themselves. Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dead Horse – ‘Hot Marty’ (Self Release)<\/span><\/strong> ‘Hot Martyr’ is the second EP from Dead Horse following up from their lockdown EP release ‘Dead Horse I’. It is also the first release featuring new Organ\/Synth member Shallum Intonti. With its slow build-up before some cool horn honking it reminds me of Gallon Drunk in places with its brooding menacing undertones threatening to boil over but never quite breaking out. Excellent garage rock n roll now with added keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Choose’ adds a little psychosis to proceedings sounding a little unhinged is deffo a plus. ‘Snake Eyes’ adds some surf and is my pick of the pops on this splendid EP that gives it all in an exhausting five-song salvo of jittering, noisy, unhinged Garage Rock n Roll extravaganza. Play on please this is excellent. Pick it up off their Bandcamp page Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as the digital release there is a limited edition run of 50 physical cassettes with four exclusive bonus tracks and a brand new Dead Horse Zine that has been specially created for the release<\/p>\n\n\n\n
