It’s been a while since we had some folk-rock music on our pages. Luckily, a parcel full of releases from Switzerland arrived at our headquarters about a week ago. Nothing of this would be possible without Hendricks The Hatmaker, a folk-punk trio based in Lucerne. The band is back on the map after a three-year… Read More Hendricks The Hatmaker – Songs For The Confused CD
Seattle-based post-punk act Sister Jack recently released a new single. Come Apart represents a second track that serves as an appropriate continuation of Don’t Let Me Down. The artist has released both singles in 2022, so it seems this is a relatively new project. However, Come apart bursts with experience, brilliant ideas, and exceptional musicianship.… Read More Sister Jack – Come Apart
Here’s another beautiful release from Noise Appeal Records, a prolific Austrian record label that, as far as I know, doesn’t have any bad releases in their catalog. They proved my point with a new release that recently arrived at Thoughts Words Action headquarters. I wasn’t familiar with this band. After reading the press sheet, I… Read More The New Mourning – When The Light Fades (Noise Appeal Records)
After two brilliant full-length releases, Between Tides (2020) and Dreams Of The Coast (2021), South Carolina dream-pop artist Grant Nesmith returns with a brand new single, released about three weeks ago.

There aren’t many emo recodings who survived the test of time, but luckily for Ribbon Fix, ongoing emo-revival entirely totally works in advantage of Camp Fire Dares The Sun, the full-length album released back in 1998. Just compare this full-length with some contemporary releases, and Camp Fire Dares The Sun could easily pass as one… Read More Ribbon Fix – Camp Fire Dares The Sun CD (Grafton Records)
Saturday is the best time for some emo music. At least, this rainy Saturday certainly is because we have a brilliant debut album by Temper & Hold on our blog today. I recently wrote about their second full-length album, The Speed Of Travel, released on vinyl by Grafton Records. That particular vinyl record blew me… Read More Temper & Hold – Too Soon To Tell CD (Grafton Records)
Swedish indie rock outfit Ljug Aldrig has released a debut single today. Besides streaming platforms, the artist decided to release these compositions as a limited 7″ vinyl record. Perhaps this is his debut release, but the artist doesn’t joke at all. There are layers of sound that create a colossal slab of abrasive ambiance mixed… Read More Ljug Aldrig – Stabbings / Juiced
Pop music occupied Thoughts Words Action headquarters in the last couple of days. I cannot complain too much about it, considering there are no unlistenable pop albums nowadays. A couple of decades ago, you could stumble upon some pretty lame pop releases, but contemporary artists pay more attention to the details than their predecessors. Bite… Read More St. Arnaud – Love And The Front Lawn CD (Fierce Panda)
