Mojo’s Pick of the Week – Puta Volcano

I came, I saw, I bought the whole digital discography! Another gem in a long string of semi-random finds from either YouTube recommendations, Bandcamp feeds, or the actual ‘you gotta hear this!’ posts in the Waveriders FaceBook group I belong to. (In this case, the latter.)

Puta Volcano from Athens, Greece is a heavy blues band with one foot in the Stoner Rock genre, just great heavy rock that grabs you by the hair and bangs your head while you trip.

I am absolutely loving this new wave of heavy female fronted bands. I can’t stop listening to the likes of High Priestess, Holy Grove, Witchcryer, Year of the Cobra, and countless others that have all seemingly suddenly come into their own. And yes I am 100% tossing Puta Volcano into this list, all hail the queens!

Mojo’s Pick of the Week – Alexa Melo “The Beautiful People”

I hadn’t heard of relative newcomer Alexa Melo until this excellent cover of one of my favorite songs popped up in my Twitter timeline, and now I’m an instant fan. This young LA-based artist released her acclaimed debut album earlier in 2015 after years of looking for the right producer to complement her sound and vision. If this single is any indication, this hard working multi-talented multi-instrumentalist is only on her way up from here.

Alexa Melo “The Beautiful People”, available on iTunes 10/30/15
