SONIC JESUS

Sonic Jesus is an Italian band born in Doganella di Ninfa, and is currently Tiziano Veronese’s musical project.
Since their debut, they have been acclaimed internationally, thanks to the release of their first EP, “Sonic Jesus,” on Fuzz Club Records.
In 2012, they shared a split titled “Split Single N°5” with The Black Angels. In 2015, they released a limited edition 7″ vinyl containing a remix by Sonic Boom aka Pete Kember of the legendary Spacemen 3 and Spectrum.
Also in 2015, they released a double album titled “Neither Virtue Nor Anger” on Fuzz Club Records, which became the manifesto that crowned the band among the most acclaimed Italian and European psychedelic realities.
In 2017, they released “Grace,” another album produced by Fuzz Club Records. It marked a reduction in the neo-psychedelic frequencies of their earlier work in favor of a newfound pop-wave sensitivity.
Their latest work by Tiziano Veronese dates back to 2018: “Memories” a self-produced album of old demos found.
Over the years, the band has performed live throughout Europe, sharing the stage with artists such as The Jesus & Mary Chain, Damo Suzuki (CAN), A Place To Bury Stranger, Wire, and Dead Skeletons.
2023 is the year of “Anxieties”, a single that anticipates the release of the new album that will be presented in London in October, with a long European tour in countries like England, France, Germany, Switzerland, Holland and Belgium.

THE BLACK DELTA MOVEMENT

Kingston-upon-Hull’s The Black Delta Movement return with their stunning new album ‘Recovery Effects’ – 8 tracks of immersive, groove-heavy garage rock released April 14th 2023 on Fuzz Club Records.

Determination and a commitment to musical development are writ large across Matt Burr’s personal and artistic journey as the main creative force behind The Black Delta Movement. His most collaborative work yet, ‘Recovery Effects’ sees Matt recruiting highly lauded UK guitar-slinger and Little Barrie frontman Barrie Cadogan and bandmates Lewis Wharton (Bass) and Tony Coote (Drums) to provide musical backing on the album. With legendary producer, The Heliocentrics’ co-founder and drummer extraordinaire Malcolm Catto also helming production duties.

“The album’s a love letter to the band and all the emotions that come with it,” explains Matt when talking about the period of adversity that led to its creation. Finding himself without his former bandmates following the release of their highly-praised 2018 debut ‘Preservation’ and that record’s subsequent live shows, the pandemic-induced lockdown periods throughout ’20 and ’21 initially gave time for reflection before proving to be a time of productivity. Giving Matt the breathing space to fine-tune the new songs alongside Cadogan before hitting the ground running when entering the studio in late 2021 – the band cutting the basic tracks live and Malcolm Catto providing invaluable input when it came to moulding the music you hear contained throughout

The results of this creative melting pot of such talented and seasoned musicians see The Black Delta Movement delivering that ring thing: a layered, honest and deeply entertaining rock’n’roll record. There are a myriad of moods and textures, whether on the garage-blues grooves of opener and first single ‘Fourth Pass Over The Graveyard’, follow-up single ‘Zip-Tie’ which explodes from its moody intro into punk-rock motorik, or the psychedelic slow-burn of ‘Hiding In The Tall Grass’ which manages to channel the likes of The Doors and Spacemen 3 over its 9 hypnotic minutes.

Seahorse 2020 Survival Kit

2020 might have been the toughest year ever, nevertheless Seahorse Recordings it’s proud to have, in spite of everything, released more than a bunch of great albums, for new, upcoming and more established artists. Music has been the life belt for all of us through pandemic, so to finally celebrate the end of 2020, we asked all of them to contribute with a previously unreleased song to this compilation. Some choose to cover songs they love (ELLE trio rendition of Fleetwood Mac “Landslide”, Miky Marrocco / Kokura covering Bill Callahan / Smog), some preferred live recordings, others decided to record totally new tracks. This is our “thank you” to everyone who supported the artists and the label, and an invitation to discover more if you like what you hear.

Il 2020 è stato un anno durissimo, per tutti e per la musica. Nonostante tutto, e a dispetto di tutto, Seahorse Recordings è orgogliosa di aver pubblicato più di una manciata di album di valore, per artisti nuovi, in ascesa, e in alcuni casi già più affermati. La musica è stata una sorta di salvagente per tutti noi durante la pandemia, per questo, per celebrare finalmente la fine del 2020, abbiamo chiesto a band e musicisti Seahorse di contribuire con una traccia inedita a questa compilation. Alcuni hanno scelto di proporre cover di brani che amano (gli Elle che rifanno “Landslide” dei Fleetwood Mac, Kokura che reintepreta Smog), altri hanno preferito live recordings, altri ancora hanno registrato per l’occasione nuovi brani. Questo è il nostro “Grazie” (di cuore) a tutti coloro che hanno sostenuto in questi lunghi mesi gli artisti e la label, e un invito a scoprire di più sui nomi qui presenti.
