Rocket Probes – January playlist

Well hasn't January been a long month!!!

MIEN – MIEN
(Members of The Horrors, Black Angels, The Earlies and Elephant Stone come together to create a stunning and completely unique album that mixes kraut, psyched grooves and pop experimentation)

Anthroprophh – OMEGAVILLE
(Anthroprophh release their 'third' album proper and it is the best thing they have ever done – Heads like fuzz rockouts collide with mind expanding, lengthy, kraut excursions. We are quite floored with how good this masterpiece is!)
Anthroprophh

Mamuthones – Fear on the corner
(We can't get enough of Mamuthones new album so have a listen to a first play of the title track on Baba Yaga's Hut radio show on Resonance FM go too 48:30....and dig that dirty fuzz!!)
Mamuthones

Gnod – Be Aware Of Your Limitations (Live At Roadburn 2017)
("In case of sonic attack".....Gnod's electronic set from last years Roadburn reworked/remixed and torn to shreds by Andrew Liles from Nurse With Wound.
Gnod

Normil Hawaiians – More Wealth than Money
(Amazing psyched out Art Punk from 1982 – an essential reissue not to ignore. Though shame the vinyl doesn't have all the extras you get with the CD/digital  version as there are some real killer alt versions of the album tracks!)
Normil Hawaiians

Acid Arab – Le Disco

SBB – SBB
(Flowers Must Die's Rickard Daun turned us on to this heavy, grooved-out, psyched rock from Poland in '74 – a proper good 'air drumming' album)

Cabaret Voltaire - Nag Nag Nag
(Great fuzzed post punk)

Lebenden Toten

Davy Kehoe ‎– Short Passing Game
(Stunning album that Teeth of the Sea's Mike Bourne turned us on too...essential purchase in our opinions)

The Devil

Rivoli – Blue Jay Way

Rivoli

Rodion G.A. – Inversions
