Reviewer Reviews...New Band Recommendations No.4
Only Real
Only Real is from West London-a proud of it too. The 21 year old keeps makes sure his Facebook followers know too with posts like, 'It's always sunny in West London bitches'. But I put up with it, simply because of 'Cadillac Girl'. This song is all about the bass and is 'As funky as possible, isn't it.' It's guitar music for people who don't like guitar music, and that, I my opinion, is something we don't see enough of. Watch Cadillac Girl here.
Mac DeMarco
Ok, we're sort of cheating here. Mac DeMarco has actually been around for quite a long time. Hell, the Vancouver based artist has been around since 2008, and released two albums in 2012. But I just don't think Mac gets the credit he deserves. He releases great music videos for almost all of his tracks(watch them 'Ode To Viceroy here), and the actually music is great too. He actually only developed his odd way of singing(more evident on the album 'Rock and Roll Night Club', which you can get for just £4.99 on iTunes), when he had tonsilitis and tried singing. As a result he sounds like a cross between Jonathan Richman and Steven Malkmus, which he describes as "jizz jazz". Oh yeah, and he still uses a guitar he bought for 30 Canadian Dollars when he was 16. That's the world of Mac DeMarco.
