New Candys (it), Blackbird Mantra - MS Stubnitz

rock | alternative | wave | psych rock | garage| kraut

Concocted with the darkest deviant rock'n'roll ethos and distinctive melodic distortions, New Candys have established themselves as one of the most compelling bands to emerge from Italy in recent years. Founded by songwriter and singer-guitarist Fernando Nuti alongside bassist and synth player Dario Lucchesi, the lineup is completed by Emanuele Zanardo on lead guitar and backing vocals and Francesco Sicchieri on drums and sampler. Signed to the cult record label Fuzz Club, the band is recognized for its unfiltered artistic approach and versatility, seamlessly blending aggressive, gritty sounds with dreamy, introspective tones. Blackbird Mantra is a four-piece psych-rock outfit formed in Hamburg in 2017. Their expansive, contrasting songs have already been compared to the sound and songwriting of Television, The Doors, and Timber Timbre (Ox-Fanzine, Neølyd Magazine). No matter where you place the four Hamburg-based musicians within the genres of psych, garage, and krautrock, it is striking how effortlessly they weave these influences together without resorting to old-fashioned rock clichés. New Album 2 AM to be released september 11th via la pochette surprise. davor, dazwischen, danach: Vinyl von DJ Phalque
