Deaf Radio - Big Mistakes (single)

Deaf Radio: Return with a New Single and New Album Announcement
Deaf Radio from Athens, return with Big Mistakes, a guitar-driven outburst against absurd standards, flirting with the band’s earliest sonic identity. The new single also marks the first announcement of the quartet’s upcoming discography comeback, expected in 2026 with their fourth full-length album.
The band:
“Three years after our last release, we’re back with Big Mistakes, the first glimpse of our new record. Right now, we’re going back to guitars—not out of nostalgia, but because we instinctively needed something direct and straightforward, away from the intensity of our early years and the electronic explorations of the previous album.
Big Mistakes repeats again and again—ironically and obsessively. It’s not a song about guilt; it’s a reminder of how easily we fall into blaming ourselves for not reaching goals imposed on us or goals we’ve been conditioned to take for granted. The track is about refusing to play that game.”

The track—along with the upcoming album—was produced by the band and Chris Vlachos at Eightyard Studios. Vlachos also handled the mixing, while the mastering was done at Sweetspot Productions by Yiannis Christodoulatos. The Big Mistakes artwork was created by Kerarh Creative Studio.

Deaf Radio also return to the stage in Athens, performing at Gazarte Ground Stage on Saturday, December 20. After a run that saw them conquer major stages across Greece and Europe, the quartet will play their final big show of the year—closing one chapter and opening the next—with a full set of their most iconic tracks plus a first taste of their new material.

[News] Holy Monitor - Naked in the Rain (new single)

 Holy Monitor - Naked in the Rain (artwork by Bewild Brother)

Following on from last month’s triumphantly massive teaser track “The Sky Is Falling Down”, Holy Monitor return with the first official single "Naked in the Rain" from their most accomplished album to date, Southern Lights(artwork by Bewild Brother)

"Naked In the Rain" 

"Naked in the Rain" is inspired by the traditional music of Epirus and the Bacchanalian frenzied rites. Holy Monitor's wild, intoxicating psychedelic groove vibes triggered by elaborately carved soundscapes take listeners into hedonistic, mad dance to exorcise the rain and revolt against reality. This Bacchic ritual to the sun symbolizes the human need to rebirth, the ecstatic loss of self, a provocative critique of conformity.

"The Sky Is Falling Down"

Athens' quintet, Holy Monitor will release their eagerly awaited third album Southern Lights on 26 February 2021 on Blackspin/Primitive Music, an astonishing and affecting follow up to their 2020 critically acclaimed EP release, ‘This Desert Land’.

Holy Monitor is a music collective blending space rock with repeatable psyched riffs & beats and ambient sensibility. The band originates from Athens, Greece and founded in the summer of 2015 by guitarist Stefanos Mitsis and singer/guitarist George Nikas, as a studio project. After recording and releasing “Golden Light” and “Aeolus” EP’s, the band was joined by Alex Bolpasis (bass), Vangelis Mitsis (keyboards) and Dimitris Doumouliakas (drums) and started performing live as a five-piece. Their self-titled album was released in 2017 by Blackspin Records/Primitive Music. Blending motorik kraut rhythms, hypnotic vocals and sticky guitar riffs, the band creates an environment of cosmic-space feelings, leading the audience into a bright sonic swirl of psychedelic oscillations. Their sophomore album “II” was released in 2018 by Blackspin Records/Primitive Music. Applying new elements of frenzy psychedelia and classy motorik riffs succeed to build asymmetric kraut pattern surrounded from unstoppable groovy vibes.

Holy Monitor is:
George Nikas: Vocals, Guitars
Stefanos Mitsis: Guitars
Alex Bolpasis: Bass
Vangelis Mitsis: Keys
Dimitris Doumouliakas: Drums
