Wizard, Mdou Moctar, Kick the Cat, and Unstoppable Sweeties Show

Wizard – Definitely Unfinished

French noise rockers Wizard released an arguably finished EP in early June titled Definitely Unfinished. At three minutes under thirty and five tracks, it’s got enough room to showcase the band’s progression since their 2018 eponymous debut. Wizard the first was already an utterly satisfying experience, but Definitely Unfinished brings an undeniable touch of refinement to the mix. The band’s new sound overflows with drive and energy on unforgettable songs that will spin more than once more, I promise!

水中スピカ – mEq (Friend of Mine)

水中スピカ is a Japanese math rock band with next to no information online, but the important thing is that they absolutely rock! I could say they sound a bit like Toe and Jyocho, but since they plug these bands in the music video above, that would be very unoriginal. mEq is a very enjoyable listen for all who like this kind of music, but unfortunately there’s no stream of the album online that I know.
