• Wake up to Dirty Beggars

    Yee-haaaw! It’s Friday, so get your General Lee primed up, have a few sips of that ol’ jug of Moonshine with the XXX label and tore a Barghest with the power of your buckshot 12 gauge. These people are known as The Dirty Beggars and  hail from Glasgow. The band has just finished a mini-tour…

  • Agony Aunt Sock – 12

    Jonny’ll fix it … or he’ll fix you is Sloucher’s own “Agony Aunt” section. These are true cases, but the identities of those involved were changed to protect them. Feel free to send your troubles our way. This week, we keep talking about office problems, not exactly related to who will replace Michael…

  • Wake up to The Hot Soles

    A rock and roll band with a lot of soul (and demanding RESPECT!) , The Hot Soles are a duo known for their vibrant shows, their musicianship and their “eat my heart out, Dapper Dan” looks. They also are giving away a song called ‘Call the regulator’ for the measly price of an email. So…

At one particular point an entirely new scene to me appears, involving the Sheriff of Nottingham (Alan Rickman) in a large hall, walking along a table surrounded by pagan worshippers and him throwing bags of gold across a…

  • A stoppie on San Luis Potosi’s highway

    Dennis Hopper Choppers – Be Ready Stream – ‘All that I once thought’

  • Paving Stones – Decibully

    A proof that creative worlds can coexist instead of colliding, Decibully delivers as many varied tunes as there are members in their band. The sexiest, vintage, harmonious tunes. This is a taste of real music democracy immersed in moog textures. They sadly are no longer with us as they have embarked into newer adventures (which…

  • Interview – The Wooden Birds

    We love music, that’s a fact. We also like music with a lot of heart in it and The Wooden Birds fill the bill perfectly. So when the opportunity arose to interview them, we gladly went for it! We’ve previously reviewed their fantastic new album, Two Matchsticks and Mr. Andrew Kenny was kind enough to…
