News Hit : The Strokes release new track 'One Way Trigger'



Earlier this week I found myself reading NME’s ‘Album A&E’ featured was The Strokes album ‘First Impressions Of Earth’ the angle grinder of the 5-pieces masterpieces, bring us back to real time 25th January 2013 at around 7pm and new track ‘One Way Trigger’ bursts into a life, out of the blue.

Casablancas vocal are somewhat missing from the track, taking the prince approach, hitting the higher notes. The influences of the bands last release ‘Under The Cover Of Darkness’ is present throughout with a keyboard ensemble, Hammond Jr’s ever present guitar strum partners a Moretti drum beat on the backline at fast pace.

What can we expect from this, recording was in motion but a release so soon?...We await word from The Strokes camp to confirm more.

On The Radar : Drenge



Drenge are a rock-garage outfit from the steel city (Sheffield, those who aren't aware), they fall somewhere between The White Stripes, The Strokes and The Black Keys, cue every two-piece comparison you can.

The music that Drenge play is something ‘between a rock and a hard place’ bluesy guitar like switches accompany a drum clattering worthy of an ASBO and vocals that mirror Morrissey, Casablancas and Wilson.

Radar track ‘Bloodsports’ is gathering pace in the music industry currently,  getting exposure in numerous magazine outfits, radio play and propping up in late night tweets a plenty, and we here at SouthSolarCity can see why. There is just something about Sheffield, isn't there?

They've supported The Cribs, They’re going on tour with Deap Vally and you can buy the ‘Bloodsports’ EP via Itunes now!
