Nest Egg are a three-piece from North Carolina who describe their heady and motorik psych-rock wig-outs as mood music for nihilists'.
Formed back in 2011, the band have built up a formidable reputation in the US live circuit, playing with everyone who's anyone - from garage juggernauts Thee Oh Sees to space-rock innovators Loop.
Following a handful of tapes and singles, in 2015 the band released their debut album Respectable'. Three years later and they've joined forces with London-label Fuzz Club Records for the release of their sophomore album Nothingness Is Not A Curse', a record that's been in the works since the summer 2016.
In a similar ballpark to the likes of Moon Duo or Follakzoid, the new record see's Nest Egg free-fall, arms flailing, down an all-consuming rabbit-hole of cosmic repetition, tripped-out drones, swirling analogue synths and cacophonous guitars; the driving krautrock gusto never letting loose for a second.
Tracklisting:
1. DMT IV

Sold outDead Vibrations burst onto the booming Stockholm music scene in 2015 and have been flying the flag high for Scandinavian shoegaze ever since.Visit product page →
Their dark and gloomy noise pop channelling a mix of visceral Mary Chain-esque guitars, droning psychedelia a la Spacemen 3 and even Seattle grunge at times - resulting in a reverb-drenched sound that manages to sound both unapologetically indebted to its influences yet completely modern.
Having spent the last couple of years touring Europe, Dead Vibrations have signed to Fuzz Club for the release of their self-titled debut album, due for release March 2nd.
With crushing fuzzed-out guitars, swirls of feedback, thundering drums and angst-ridden vocals, the record is a masterclass in dark, brooding shoegaze.
For such a new band, Dead Vibrations have wasted no time making their mark and their debut album is sure to send them to even further heights.

Portugal's dreamweapon take their name from the 1990 Spacemen 3 live album Dreamweapon: An Evening of Contemporary Sitar Music', who themselves took inspiration from the work of minimalist drone - or Dream Music'- visionary La Monte Young and a 1965 multimedia piece titled Rites of The Dreamweapon'by original The Velvet Underground drummer Angus MacLise. Fast-forward to 2018 and dreamweapon, the band, are continuing to keep the torch burning.Visit product page →
Made up of 10,000 Russos bassist Andre Couto, João Campos Costa and Edgar Moreira, dreamweapon emerged in 2009 and have since gone on to release one EP, their debut S/T album and a handful of singles, whilst taking their immersive and unremitting live show around Europe.
Made up of four improvised compositions recorded in one take at their Porto practice space, on February 16th dreamweapon will be releasing their sophomore LP SOL'.
On the album, whirrs of feedback and noise coalesce around droning, oscillating synths, samples and subtle cascading guitars, the only thing keeping the sparse soundscapes together being the incessant Krautrock rhythm with a seemingly endless motorik bassline that forces it's way right to the back of your unconscious and the almost proto-punk minimalism of those programmed drum machines.

Sold outThe Oscillation is one of the many aliases of Demian Castellanos, an almost-mythical force in the London underground. Since 2006, under the guise of The Oscillation, Demian has released four LPs, countless EPs/singles and played with everyone from Silver Apples and Beak to Wooden Shjips and Deerhunter, all the while being emulated by the likes of The Guardian, Mojo, The Quietus, Vice, Q, Pitchfork and 6 Music.Visit product page →
Following on from the disillusioned, cosmic psych-punk of 2016's 'Monographic' LP and the 2017 single Evil In the Tree', The Oscillation is gearing up for the release of his fifth album, U.E.F, on March 2nd via Fuzz Club Records.
The new album sees Demian completely subvert his sound once-again, adding a new evolution to his ever-evolving musical canon. Ditching any inkling of his rock'beginnings for a lysergic (but equally sinister) journey into post-apocalyptic electronics and sprawling drones - resulting in something that's more likely to be bouncing around the walls of club nights than the back-room venue of grotty bars.
U.E.F is comprised of two 20-minute slabs of unforgiving, dystopian electronica - complete with ambient electronics, droning analogue synths, monolithic percussion and a hypnotic kraut gusto.
This is kosmische musik for the new age; a fitting soundtrack to the forthcoming techno-apocalypse, when artificial intelligence takes over and we're all subjected to the way of the machine.

On February 23rd Black Lizard will be releasing their third album, Celebration Of A New Dawn, on London imprint Fuzz Club Records. Recorded in the basement of a rundown 50s movie theatre turned recording studio, the new album is a sublime excursion into Sixties-indebted, washed-out garage-pop.
Celebration Of - ¦'is Black Lizards best album yet; bright, vivid and lysergic, the record manages to be unapologetically nostalgic yet carve out its own glorious, introspective pastiche - repackaging the Nuggets-esque garage/psych-pop and early-90s shoegaze swoons for 21st-century wastoids.

Christian Berghoff and Sebastian Haas are two lifelong friends from Saarbrucken, Germany who back in 2007 formed the band Pretty Lightning.
The duo tick off a long list of influences - from 60s psych and delta blues through to krautrock and drone - and the end-product is a heady dose of raw, twisted psychedelic blues recalling an utterly visceral mix of Oh Sees, Wooden Shjips and early Black Keys.
Fast forward ten years and the German two-piece have two highly-praised LPs behind them and are now gearing up for their third effort, 'The Rhythm Of Ooze' - due for release November 10th on Fuzz Club Records. Their latest long-player sees them dive even further down the rabbit-hole of stomping garage-rock blues and dizzying motoric drones.

Their minimalist-yet-primitive rock'n'roll and sprawling psychedelic drones have seen them pick up international acclaim and go on to collaborate with an impressive roster of underground music royalty such as Vega, Anton Newcombe, Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3/Spectrum and Dean Wareham of Galaxie 500.
Their 2014 debut Departure'(produced by Sonic Boom) was what kick-started it all and London imprint Fuzz Club are delighted to be reissuing the record, following a previous partnership with the band for a split 10' with Vega himself.
On their debut, The Vacant Lots deliver a primal hit of darkly hypnotic rock'n'roll with a repetitive and utterly formidable proto-punk gusto - reflecting back on the album it's pretty easy to see why the duo went on to become so revered.
Fuzz Club will be reissuing the album as a double LP and the D-side includes two amazing remixes from Alan Vega and Anton Newcombe.
