New Midnight Oil?
The Oils have just released a new song from one of their two (two!!!!!!) upcoming albums. They have recorded two new albums, that’s right. One a mini-album passion project (as if there isn’t any Oils project without passion…) called “The Makaratta Project” and another Oils album for later in the year. Produced by Warne Livesay, which helped give us Diesel and Dust and Blue Sky Mining.
I’ll let them explain it better in this link; obviously this was before the pandemic so the timeline will likely be altered. Just be excited new Oils is on the way!
New Frank Turner!
Not really “new” songs, but fun new covers and interpretations. Frank and Fat Mike of NOFX teamed up for a split covers album covering five songs from each other. While it might not be a classic it’s fun to hear each other’s interpretation, many of which feel like they could be in either’s catalogs. The two videos, one of NOFX dressing like the Sleeping Souls and one of a couple of kids dressing like Frank (including tats) are fun enough.
