Danny Kroha "Angels Watching Over Me"

"His guitar work with Rocket 455 is the most quintessentially "Detroit" rock and roll this side of the MC5. The record was recorded in a 100-year-old, vacant house in Detroit, and features songs popularized by the likes of Son House, I.D. Stamper, Blind Lemon Jefferson, and Brother Will Hairston."

The founding member of the ’90s garage gods, THE GORIES, Dan Kroha has released his first solo album "Angels Watching Over Me," available NOW via Third Man Records.

QUARTERBACKS

"QUARTERBACKS started as a short-lived duo playing too-fast love songs backed by guitar and a single snare drum.  Basement style, old smelly carpets, house shows for punk and patch kids. This was in New Paltz, a college town at the bottom of a mountain in upstate New York. Dean (Dean Engle, the band’s songwriter/vocalist) worked at one of the town’s two record shops, as K Records-obsessed small town boys usually do."

QUARTERBACKS comprise of Dean Engle, Max Restaino and Tom Christie.
Visit the trio at the Team Love Records. Their first official long-player "Quarterbacks" is out on February 10th via Team Love. 12" pre-order, HERE.

Amen Dunes - Song To The Siren

"Cowboy Worship is an attempt to give life to some of the music that didn’t make it past the scalpel. From a blown-out version of “Green Eyes” featuring Harvey Milk’s Stephen Tanner, to a darker and mellower “I Can’t Dig It” as Damon McMahon originally arranged it upon writing the song in China, many of the original intentions for the music that were lost in the Love sessions are revived. In addition is a band version of Through Donkey Jaw’s “Lezzy Head,” featuring Dunes mainstays Jordi Wheeler and Parker Kindred (Jeff Buckley), and most significantly, a shining cover of This Mortal Coil’s interpretation of the Tim Buckley classic, “Song to the Siren,” featuring Ben Greenberg (Hubble) on guitar."

Amen Dunes' upcoming new EP "Cowboy Worship" including 'Song to the Siren' (Tim Buckley cover), is due out on January 20th via Sacred Bones.

『Cowboy Worship』は、アメン・デューンズ（デーモン・マクマホン）が録音におよそ１年半の歳月をかけ５つのスタジオで16人のミュージシャンたちとともに完成した2014年のサード・アルバム『Love』からのロスト・レコーディングスを収録したEPとの由。エリザベス・フレイザー（コクトー・ツインズ）も歌いあげた（This Mortal Coil 『It'll End in Tears 』4AD, 1983）ティム・バックリィの「警告の歌（Song to the Siren）」のカヴァーも収録。
