Coroner for the Police: Gentleman’s Relish

Monica
They are the Coroner for the Police. They are a 1920s mobster rock-punk band with a penchant for a good suit. They are the fact and the reason why you will have loads of fun listening to music for the next couple of minutes. Hailing from the United Kingdom, Dave, Nathan, John and Dan formed the band at the start of 2012 in a clingy warehouse then gigs followed wherein beers were drunk and friends were made.

Kid Runner

Monica
Kid Runner transcends the traditional structure, conventional tempo and the usual instrumental in its genre. Radio-friendly choruses and mainstream pop themes are still evident but expect more of the pulsing dreams, swing beats and gospel choirs thrown around here and there from time to time.

Action News Team: How To Defend Yourself Against Fresh Fruit

Valerie
Action News Team is as eclectic as can be with their new record, How to Defend Yourself Against Fresh Fruit. The album comes with a host of blues, rock, jazz and alternative punk sounds that seem tossed inside one giant blender and turned into a smoothie. The band hasn't been sitting idly, in fact they've released about 12 compilations and singles since last year on BandCamp. This is the latest from the roster and the second one to be featured here in the blog. You'll discover a world of boozy dance club vocals, wailing guitars as well as 70s inspired Doors vibe circling all around.

Kanoi: Arsonics

Valerie
Kanoi manages to enchant and mesmerize listeners with his eclectic sound. Mixing pop, indie, folk and a tad bit of rock on there, Arsonics is an interesting record that resounds with a certain raw appeal. The man behind Kanoi is Austrian musician, Benjamin Kantschieder. He's essentially a one-man crew; playing all the instruments and doing all the vocal work. Arsonics is compilation of remastered/remixed work from previous compilations Cracks and Endlight EP.

Chantilly: Up To the Moon EP

Valerie
Armed with sweet and powerful vocals, Chantilly's Up To the Moon EP booms and crashes like the Brooklyn singer's sunny and quirky disposition. This is one of those compilations that automatically make you smile and feel elated even if you're listening to it the first time. Up To the Moon EP is a compilation of 5 self-written tracks. This is a first for the singer and it's easy to tell that that she definitely has something up her sleeve. Her vocals and witty lyrics echo of lost loves, memorable summer times and of course, a general self-reflection that can only come from the mind of a witty and fun loving girl.
