The Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – F.O.D.
Monk’s latest hottest of the hot picks comes from a band who are no strangers to the Singles Club playlist, Belgian punk ‘n’ rollers F.O.D., who are taking us back to where we belong with the latest cut to be carved from their forthcoming sixth album, ‘The Once A Virgin Club’, due to be released via our friends at SBÄM Records on 5 April:
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Living Dead Girl
Monk’s latest pick of the pops comes from a band who sew together elements of gothic metal with industrialized pop punk like Dr Frankenstein with a turbocharged soldering iron in one hand and a bottle of Buckie in the other… Well, they do take their name from a Rob Zombie song, so what else would you expect but acts of depraved audio and visual ugliness, as evinced by this latest offering from the Florida-based al-metal extremists?
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – De’Wayne
Monk’s latest selection comes from the boundary-expanding genre-redefining alt-rock artist known as De’Wayne, who is proving there is nothing synthesized in what he does – just a passion for expanding those boundaries and redefining those generic terminologies in a way few have attempted since Prince melded metal and funk with hip-hop and pure unadulterated pop ethics.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – YOBS
Monk’s latest selection comes from a bunch of Liverpool garage punks who certainly and defiantly live up to their monicker, as they inject a dose of ‘Cyanide’ into our systems with the latest incendiary two-minute ripper to be taken from their upcoming self-titled debut album.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Blues Pills
Monk’s latest choice is a song whose title is something of a double-edged sword – recalling a rather traumatic ‘Birthday’ party but at the same time celebrating Blues Pills singer Elin Larsson’s journey into motherhood.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Slash
Monk’s latest selection features of of the most recognizable figures in rock ‘n’ roll, as well as not one but two legendary frontmen. In relation to the former, he’s talking, of course, about the man born Saul Hudson, who has returned to his roots and his love of the blues for his upcoming sixth solo album, ‘Orgy Of The Damned’. And for the lead single he has enlisted the help of an old friend, AC/DC vocalist Brian Johnson, who gives a quite frankly revelatory performance on this lead single, a reworking of the 1964 Howlin’s Wolf classic ‘Killing Floor’… and not content with stopping there, Aerosmith demigod Steven Tyler also came along for the ride, laying down some real sweet harmonic vibes…
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club: March Madness (Part One)
It’s been another busy couple of weeks here at the clubhouse, with a succession of ‘banging anthems blasting from our death decks and worming their way into the darkest recesses of our aural consciousness. Our new #DailyPick feature has proven to be enormously popular, allowing us to showcase many more rising artists and in a more timely way than the fortnightly opening of the main club permits… but, there are always tonnes of quality tunes that are grabbing us by the lugholes, and so here’s another eclectic playlist of the ones that are currently warming the cockles of our wizened rock ‘n’ roll hearts…
Read MoreVIDEO OF THE WEEK: JAGWAR TWIN
Our latest visual feast is truly that, and comes from alt-pop sensation Jagwar Twin, who has released the cinematic interpretation of his viral hit ‘Bad Feeling (Oompa Loompa)’ – a vivid, big-top spectacle that sees the multi-dimensional artist becoming the ringleader of his own surreal circus.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Jeff Fabb
Our latest hot off the presses selection comes from an artist who has established a reputation as one of the singular most talented and in demand drummers in metal, through his work with the likes of Black Label Society, In This Moment, Sixx A.M. and Filter. However, Jeff Fabb is also a prolific multi-instrumentalist and prodigious songwriter in his own right, as he proved when he released his debut solo album, ‘Stealing Souls’, last November.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Winona Fighter
My latest choice cut comes from Nashville punk trio Winona Fighter, who are defiantly but gleefully affirming that they’re in the market to please no one with this, erm, very pleasing and empowering punk rock anthem all about standing up for yourself and no longer tolerating toxic relationships.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – Scene Queen
Our latest hot off the presses selection comes from self-described “bimbocore starlet” Scene Queen, who is gleefully giving us the ‘Finger’ as she continues to paint the world pink with this sassy, sexually empowering new offering.
Read MoreThe Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – The Native Howl
Our latest pick of the pops comes from those self-described purveyors of “thrash grass”, The Native Howl, who are appealing for us to have some ‘Mercy’ on this collaboration with the virtually omnipresent and seemingly indestructable Lzzy Hale.
