The world according to your mum doing the washing

Time for a break from all the TV Licensing fun, time to let your mom explain the world. Not through the medium of dance, but through washing:

Joshua Idehen – Mum Does The Washing OFFICIAL VIDEO

Came across the song on BBC Radio 6 Music (no TV License required) earlier this week and thought it should be spread further. So here it is.

A band new to me in 2023: Coach Party

I promised I’d write a blog post about them, so I better get it done before 2023 comes to an end. Some time during the summer I came across Coach Party from the Isle of Wight, probably on BBC Radio 6 Music. I’m not sure which song I heard first, good chance it was the one I’ve already mentioned:

Coach Party – What’s The Point In Life (Official Video)

Some more delicious noise in the next one:

Coach Party – All I Wanna Do Is Hate (Official Video)

I don’t know what period drama/series (if any) they are referencing in the video, but I think It’s quite enjoyable. And there’s more nice noise

Coach Party – FLAG (Feel Like A Girl) (Official Video)

I’m not sure why hate is featuring in their songs at an alarming rate, as here’s a second song with hate in the title, although the roles are reversed this time:

Coach Party – Everybody Hates Me (Official Video)

To close a song that hopefully isn’t going to weird you out

Coach Party – Weird Me Out (Official Video)

That’s it for Coach Party for now. If you didn’t know them before I hope you might have found something you like as well.

Let’s see what I’ll discover next year….

On heavy rotation just now: What’s The Point In Life

I’ve mentioned Wet Leg on this blog a while ago, now it’s time for another band from the Isle of Wight, which probably will extend to a Bands New To Me post later this year. The band is Coach Party, the song is (obviously) What’s The Point In Life:

Just under three minutes of pleasant noise with catchy lyrics, what’s not to love?

The Gaslight Anthem are back…

It’s been quite a while since their last album and at times I was wondering if their indefinite hiatus would ever end. Well, they got back together a short while ago and now their first new single is out. With a little help from The Boss.

The Gaslight Anthem – History Books (ft. Bruce Springsteen) – Official Video

The album will be released at the end of October, I guess there will be one or two more singles from the album until then to bridge us over.

Good to hear they’re back.
