I was round a pals this afternoon listening to jellyskin and had forgotten what perfect electro pop it is

Irked is long gone. We have Irked news very soon. #irked jellyskin - we have a sweet new press of this album. Got around ten copies left. Sea foam green vinyl.

This is killer hands on gnarly electronic wildness. Really excellent. I love it when you sense an off grid (in all senses) feel @rapideyeelectro.bsky.social

Half my life ago I worked at Southern, the distributor based near Crouch End. One of my jobs was to destroy vast amounts of records. I saved loads for pals. Including this. Which has since been repressed. In fact everything I destroyed has been repressed. What is the point of anything, eh?

Saw this today not for sale in a record shop. Limited to a mere 4000 @marcrileydj.bsky.social

I'm having a very good time with these two radical music texts. Nothing else is getting a look in this evening. I know there's serious politics involved on that Max Roach sleeve but holy moly they look cool as hell

BLOODY HEAD "Bend Down And Kiss The Ground" is officially out TODAY! Stream it in full on Bandcamp now (and on digital platforms later today) and order the limited edition LP directly from us or from all decent independent retailers (we recommend Norman, Beat & Track, Land Of Treason for starters)

Gonna assume it's cos Radiohead hates us. No need to read

To make up for the horror of the Stooges picture disc from earlier heres the first UK press of this stone colder. The template for so much from that wild ruckus causing island. Brisbane's The Saints. I went to see where they lived and it's an office block now on a one way dual carriageway ring road

Really spitting in the eye of audio quality wiseacres here as one of the greatest guitar records ever almost dies on its rump in the grooves of a picture disc. Nothing can keep these lads down though. This still leaps all over the place. Boy oh boy, I need to upgrade

#TakeAPhotoOfYourselfLookingDownTheToiletRollOfYourDreams It's the new trend

Tonto's Expanding Head Band - Zero Time (1971) Pretty sure you can pick this up 2nd hand for less than a tenner. I got this from the shop in Shrewsbury market a few years ago. Got a Plantasia feel. Coupla of hairies messing around with homemade synths. Stevie Wonder poached em for his classic LPs

To follow on from The Dead C record this is my favourite off shoot release by that group. I have heard 5% of all off-shoot releases so this is a real '7/13 people tested prefer Nivea to Whiskas when cleaning their toilet' sample pool. Whatever. I Really love this record. On MIE, a label I miss.

The Dead C - Secret Earth

Not-so-gentle reminder that the new BLOODY HEAD album "Bend Down And Kiss The Ground" is officially out this Friday on everyone's favourite income-tax-disaster-zone Wrong Speed Records! Here's the title track, filmed on my shitty mobile phone (RIP) in a concrete room filmed with resonant metal...

JUST IN! 'Bend Down And Kiss The Ground' by Bloody Head Notts noise rockers Bloody Head balance discord and riffy weight with cosmic drift and sprawl. LP on Wrong Speed Records. www.normanrecords.com/records/2132...

Hey Colossus - In Blood (2023) @heycolossus.bsky.social #nowspinning #vinylsky #musicsky

New Hey Colossus song is proper good. Thumpy and psychedelic with a hint of Batman. Bodes very well for the new album.

Celebrating winning things when these sort of numbers are in your favour is pure 'Trump accepting an award won by someone else' energy "We're the best!" 🤣🤣

Having a beautiful morning reading the Cardiacs book (again) and listening to em and seeing this snap - the last thing they did, a @marcrileydj.bsky.social session, the night before Tim collapsed in June 2008. I actually really like that some people don't get them. That's a sign of greatness imo

This is sold out. Keep eye on waiting list. Three Wrong Speed bands in a soon to be gone Corsica Studios. The boring bit of the city is spreading. The good shit is moving to the edges, as always

This reads like an Ice Cube lyric and I'm on board

Upton Park Vs London Stadium

In light of my previous negative post that I normally try and avoid doing because I'm a lovely fucking man (certain bands set me off, I'm only human). Here's Total Control with Typical System, one of the greatest records from the 21st century. Shop sticker still on: £16, Black Cat Records, Taunton

Was secretly interested in the new Flea solo album but have now read Thom Yorke is involved and I can't re-enact Homer reversing into the hedge quick enough

PREORDER: 'Heaven Was Wild' by Hey Colossus Psychedelic noise rockers @heycolossus.bsky.social capture their live energy in a bottle on a fresh studio LP. www.normanrecords.com/records/2134...

Have only just stopped laughing at that Sunderland penalty

More than threatening, promising

New to me: MIZUTAMA SHŌBŌDAN Two albums. 1981 and 1985. Reissued last year on Spittle. This is some wild and radical stuff. Out there and rhythmic. They have a trad line up but they slap the shit out of what they're up to. Could have been on Factory, they would have ruled at the Hacienda

#NowPlaying First up on today's Cosmic Church @iheartnoise.bsky.social on @campradio.bsky.social Hey Colossus - Cannibal Forecast via @xeaglepissx.bsky.social heycolossus.bandcamp.com/album/heaven... listen.camp

I endlessly and pointlessly mull this over but here it is, the five best bands from this country of all time. Groundbreaking influence churners, one and all. Original sounds from all of them. Couple of them ran their own labels. Marched to beat of own drum. Sabbath. Coil. Crass. Fall. Cardiacs.

Honourable Mentions - I found it really hard to pick my 5 favourites this year. I think any of my 32 AOTY contenders could be in the 5 and I’ll still feel I’d got it right. There’s a load more I loved too but you have to draw the line somewhere #chopsfives #2025AOTY

Hello, Richard! Struggled to get to these 5! Here are my #5debutalbums25: 1. Blankenberge - Decisions 2. Lifeguard - Dripped and Torn 3. Horsegirl - Phonetics On and On 4. Open Head - What Is Success 5. AAA Gripper - We Invented Work For The Common Good Thanks a lot and happy new year!

So weird to be proud of this Don't bother looking London stats up, a city five times the size. You know.

#HeyColossus will release a new album, Heaven Was Wild, on 27 February 2026 You can read an archive Baker's Dozen with the band here: buff.ly/cHatLLV

Happy New Year! If releasing a new Hey Colossus album on New Year's Day wasn't enough then here's "Wrong Speed 2025", a digital comp of tracks from each of the 14 releases we put out or announced last year. Perfect for that hungover New Year's Day walk in the mud!

Mum giving 'jars of mystery' a few months ago with just ONE letter as a clue. One is "AJ", one definitely looks like it has chilli flakes..the one on the right is almost certainly marmalade Anyone else grow up buying "mystery cans" from Tesco? Label missing...is it beans or cat food for tea?
