Watch: ‘Intuition Unbound’ by Suns of Thyme
Posted: 14 May 2016 in Recommended Streams and VideosTags: Intuition Unbound, Napalm Records, Suns of Thyme, video stream
Suns of Thyme blends space rock, shoegaze, and psychedelia reminiscent of Velvet Underground on sophomore album Cascades, to be released on May 27th via Napalm Records. Ahead of the release, they’ve put out video for ‘Intuition Unbound’.
Synopsis director Easton West comments:
“The storyline is about a wise forest stewart who leads his apprentice through the land teaching her ancient ways until one morning he finds a supernatural blue seed in the wetlands. The discovery initiates a mystical ritual that transfers his ancient knowledge to his apprentice, inaugurating her as the new keeper of the land.”
The video stars Swiss actor David Bennent (The Tin Drum, A Dangerous Fortune) and actress Sarah Johnson, and was directed by Easton West of Klein and West, a Berlin based production company and ensemble of film creatives whose work crosses over between narrative, documentary and commercial realms.

Listen: ‘When Will I Return? (Excerpt)’ by Swans
Posted: 12 May 2016 in Recommended Streams and VideosTags: Album preview, Michael Gira, sample, Swans, The Glowing Man, When Will I Return?
As a further taster for the forthcoming album The Glowing Man, with its Ballardian connotations, Swans have offered up an excerpt of ‘When Will I Return’.
‘When Will I Return?’ was written, explains Michael Gira, "… specifically for Jennifer Gira to sing. It’s a tribute to her strength, courage, and resilience."
It sounds like vintage Swans, and calls to mind the sound of The Great Annihilator, Love of Life and White Light. Hear it here:
The Glowing Man is out on 17th June.
Listen: ‘Dälek Soundscapes Sound pack’
Posted: 12 May 2016 in Recommended Streams and VideosTags: Dälek, Experimental hip-hop, Samples, Soundscapes
Dälek, pioneers of abrasive and distorted hip hop, have teamed up with Swedish music hardware makers Elektron for the Dälek Soundscapes Sound pack. The samples are results and outtakes of the late night studio sessions giving birth to their geniously intense seventh album Asphalt for Eden.
Broken, melodic, beautiful: this is a brutally honest testament of both the creative process and aural aesthetics of the grinding machine known to man as Dälek.

Watch / Download: ‘Shake Shake’ by REWS
Posted: 8 May 2016 in Recommended Streams and VideosTags: REWS, Shake Shake, Video, YouTube
‘Shake Shake’ from Irish girl-rock act REWS may be bit more accessible than a lot of the stuff you’ll usually find here at Aural Aggravation, but we’re all about music that excites us, and we know a cracking song when we hear one. ‘Shake Shake’ is a cracking song.
Consisting of songstress Shauna Tohill and beat-maker Collette Williams together they’ve been creating a genuine buzz with their brand of punky alt-rock including plays from Kerrang Radio, Planet Rock, Team Rock Radio, Steve Lamacq, Amazing Radio and Dan O’Connell on Radio X.
They also play at The Great Escape this year.

On June 17, iconic avant-rock ensemble Swans are releasing The Glowing Man, the fourth and final studio album from this line-up since their reactivation by band primum mobile Michael Gira in 2010 after a 14 year hiatus. This will be followed by their customary year-long world-wide tour celebrating the release after which Gira says, "I’ll continue to make music under the name Swans, with a revolving cast of collaborators…touring will definitely be less extensive." This is an excerpt of "Cloud of Unknowing" from the live concert DVD that will accompany the deluxe 2-CD release:
