Nell Davies made a video for The End of the World or Whatever, the title track from her new EP. Lots of fun on a low budget.

Jimi Hendrix: "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp (Take 30)" from the "Bold as Love" box set

Here Comes The Flood @herecomestheflood.com · 2d

Take 30 of Burning Of The Midnight Lamp is a 101 of that Hendrix could achieve by sculpting sounds, decades before a wealth of effects and plug-ins would become widely available.

Juan y la Hormiga: València

Here Comes The Flood @herecomestheflood.com · 2d

A careful mix of elements of power pop and alt-country.

Melancholy, beauty and a subtle sense of humour are the key ingredients of this batch of songs. Cupid's Arrow could not have picked better spot to hit its mark.

Being in The Fall isn't like being in another group. It isn't a holiday. A lot of musicians are really hard to deal with. They aren't as smart as me.

Songwriter Brendan Wright took a quote from an elderly guy - "an artist cannot paint a tree, unless they examine all aspects of it" - as the starting point for a song about the condition humaine

Dutch folk singer Ismena enters her safe space after a long day on her new single Be My Water. The gentle piano and sprinklings of synths are the perfect accompaniment for her dreamy vocals.

KATVALY: Speedfall (discombobulation pop mix)

Here Comes The Flood @herecomestheflood.com · 4d

This "discombobulation pop mix" is rather gnarly and distorted at times, aimed at people who listen to music - the horror - through the crap speakers of their phone. Try it, and be pleasantly surprised.

Westside Cowboy: Don't Throw Rocks

Here Comes The Flood @herecomestheflood.com · 5d

A slow burner single that starts out as a mellow pop song gradually turning into a noisy guitar exercise, before coming full circle again with a soft-spoken coda.

Music has the ability to conjure up the picture of a bygone era and that is what The Magic Time Machine of Love intends to do (...) as a reminder that dreaming of, and working at, a better future is actually a cool thing to do.

Opus Kink: I'm A Pretty Showboy

Under neath all the mayhem lies the message that posturing is only skin deep and it is just a means to keep the world at bay while dancing your ass off. Recommended if you like the Pogues having a ball with The Clash.

A bunch of early Jorma Kaukonen recordings get a Black Friday release (November 28). Wabash Avenue, named after the address he was living at in San Jose, contains material that he laid down in 1965 on a reel to reel recorder.

Fear has taken over, and although some of the sunny-side up psychedelic musings from their debut have found their way in again, the undeniable horror of the current clusterfuck always has the upper hand.

Part riot girrrl, part pop artist, Nell Davies attacks her material with a hammer and a smile. Look no further when in need of a song telling people to fuck off. This kind of ramshackle catchiness is irresistible.
