Incognito pick of the week: Ape Up!
Posted: April 29, 2012 in new musicTags: Ape Up!, Boston punk, new music recommendations
We mentioned this album last week so it’s no surprise that this is our pick of the week. If you like bands that will make you want to pump your fist and scream along with the vocalist, Ape Up! is a good band for you. If nothing else, this is good to listen to so you realize that not everyone makes cookie-cutter sensitive-boy rock. Kemosabe by Ape Up! will be available on Tuesday 1 May.

Incognito picks of the week: Nazarenes and Sun Gods in Exile
Posted: April 22, 2012 in new musicTags: Nazarenes reggae, new music recommendations, Sun Gods in Exile, Thanks for the Silver
Sometimes you get recommendations about a certain genre and the more you explore, the more you appreciate and like that genre. This is the case with me and reggae. Until recently, I had never explored a lot of reggae. Then I got some recommendations of bands to check out and I found myself seeking it out more and more. Nazarenes is the latest reggae band I have checked out and really enjoyed. If you are a fan of reggae, check out Meditation, the latest from Nazarenes – available Tuesday 24 April.
Another album due out Tuesday is Thanks for the Silver by Sun Gods in Exile. This is a band that bills itself as “Southern fried biker boogie” and brings to mind bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd and Molly Hatchett. If you like 70s southern rock, this is definitely an album you should check out.
Greenland Whalefishers new album
Posted: April 21, 2012 in new musicTags: Celtic rock, Greenland Wahelfishers
Yesterday was a good day for new music. When I opened up my PO Box, I found the latest LP from Greenland Whalefishers. There’s something very cool about getting music from Norway in my box, especially when it’s Celtic rock.
It came from the Howlin’ Banana
Posted: April 20, 2012 in new musicTags: 60 Second Swingers, garage punk, Howlin' Banana Records
One of the great things about being a music writer is getting new music from unexpected sources. I received a message today from Howlin’ Banana Records (from France) asking if I would like to check out two songs from an upcoming 7″ by garage punk band 60 Second Swingers. I ask you, how am I supposed to turn down something from a label called Howlin’ Banana? And I’m glad I didn’t. This is great garage punk stuff.
We spend a lot of time seeking out new music, but there is no way to cover it all. Let us know about your great discoveries. Tell us about your favorite music artists, and if we like them too, we’ll find space for them in the pages of Incognito.
