When you're following the music blog Rosy Overdrive, it's like Christmas morning approximately three times a week

In this edition we finally get RO's power pop percentage back to normal (but we've still got some psychedelic garage rock and slowcore-emo for the rest of you)

Read this Rosy Overdrive 🏳️‍⚧️ article about Rural France, then click the link in our bio to go and see them live at TheCrescentYork a week on Thursday.

'Writhing Squares are just as devoted to fiery, primordial garage rock and uninhibited jazz-rock as ever across the record’s eight songs.'

Sure the new Water from Your Eyes album is good, but also have you heard the absurd amount of good music put out by This Is Lorelei from December 2020 to August 2022
