Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
Another late 70s early 80s band that embraced the synthesizer and forged an entirely new style of music. And like the best of their contemporaries, they embraced the “synthpop” label, while retaining the delight at what could be achieved when experimenting with the instruments at their disposal.
Not just another Glaswegian band…
It’s fucking Mogwai !
Hand of Juno
First mentioned this band a few months ago because the guitarist, Alice Lane Pandini, is also the bass player for Infected Rain. Finally got around to buying their album because 3 super hot ladies–and one dude–playing some killer industrial metal was always going to be a buy from me.
Dutch Black Metal
An all female black metal band. Not as inspiring as Witch Club Satan but I’ll take female black metal over male black metal any day because men suck.
A Bandcamp Friday purchase.
Scottish Darkwave
Discovered this Glaswegian band on Facebook a few days ago. They don’t have an album or EP available yet but I did get these two tracks on this recent Bandcamp Friday
