dry the river: turns out it wasn’t dry

Dry the river

So sometimes you just can’t make it to a concert and you have to rely on the inputs and opinions of others. A good friend of the fuzz gang (lets’ call him Ramon from Amsterdam) caught the ‘dry the river’ show last week at Bitterzoet. What can I do but share his enthusiasm with you! [...]

I’ve been ‘Washed Out’…

washed out - ernest greene

On Friday the 5th of August the indiefuzz gang was out and about in Amsterdam. During the riveting dinner conversation I stated that I wanted to pick up the CD of the band ‘Washed Out’ as I keep seeing it mentioned on facebook, twitter, and even in one of the fuzzbabe fashion magazines.

Ou est le swimming pool’s singer Charles Haddon couldn’t wait that long. He committed suicide on the 20th of august this year on [...]

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark – History of Modern

OMD_FRONTCOVER

A befriended insider to the music business advised us to post only about bands we like. Good advice. With so much great music around why waste precious time on lesser stuff. Still,  I want to add a bracketed ‘d’ to this motto: on Indiefuzz we post about music we like(d).  Once upon a time Orchestral Manoeuvres in the [...]
