As usual, I checked out a few.

TV Priest - Very interesting, though I've heard them before. A reminder that I want to check them out further.

Here Lies Man - Reminds me of early BOC. Just has a similar feel if not sound. I liked it!

London Grammar - Beautiful! Her voice reminds me of someone else, but I can't place it.

There’s so many great new post punk bands coming down the pike, and TV Priest is certainly a standout. Is this the NWOBPP we’ve been waiting for?

Definitely getting a Black Sabbath/BOC vibe from Here Lies Man, but with a groove that’s not readily apparent in either. Drummer Geoff Mann is apparently the son of Herbie Mann.

I thought London Grammar was Christine + the Queens for the longest time, but that’s just me and how I hear things...

801, check your PM!

Loved the Show, 801

Lots of great music. I'll agree that Here Lies Man is a highlight, and I do see the BOC vibe (more than Black Sabbath in fact). Also very good among the newcomers were The Sonder Bombs and the Luxembourg Signal (did you play something else by them a few weeks back; the name does ring a bell). That TV Priest album sounds like a winner, and I like the new songs from London Grammar, The Weather Station and Rosehip Teahouse, all of which I was already familiar with (the last two, thanks to you).

Yup - The Luxembourg Signal got their first airing last week. I look forward to hearing more from them...

TV Priest’s debut can’t get here soon enough- only a couple more weeks to go...
