LUNA ROSA – British Indies Cause Goosebumps With Orchestral Masterstroke ‘A ROOM BETWEEN THE OCEANS’
Daily electricity to charge your batteries
10 October 2026
Band: LUNA ROSA
Who: Indie outfit from Northants,
East Midlands of England.
Track: A ROOM BETWEEN THE OCEANS
Born from one line in a short story, ‘A room in the ocean’ it stayed with frontman
Rory McDade for a year before becoming ‘A Room Between The Oceans’, emerging
as an image of two people sealed inside a room being battered by waves from
either side, while everything within remains completely still.
It is a place of safety and danger, euphoria and pain, love and trauma.
A place that can feel like everything, precisely because there is nowhere
else to go.
The song’s institutional shadows were partly informed by a book, titled One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest by American novelist Ken Kesey (1935-2001), while its cosmic imagery reflects the band’s vocalist/lyricist Rory McDade’s fascination with the idea of joy and trauma existing within the same space.
TUTV: Mind-bending mixed emotions collide on this monumental goosebumps
roller coaster. A Room Between The Oceans is an astonishing masterstroke amplified
with overwhelming orchestrations, crescendo rock grooves, Interpol-like guitar bliss
and a captivatingly melodramatic chorus with perfervid vocals bringing The Afghan
Whigs’ frontman Greg Dulli‘s feverish voice to mind.
In a normal world this staggering tour de force
would be a widespread triumph. Spread the word.

DR. FEELGOOD – British R&B Rock Legends Released Their Steaming Live LP ‘STUPIDITY’ Today 50 Years Ago
Significant longplayers from yesteryear
10 October 2026
Legendary British R & B rockers DR. FEELGOOD, led by the late charismatic singer
Lee Brilleaux (1952-1994) and the late sensational guitarist Wilko Johnson (1947-2022) were one of the many pub rock bands such as Eddie & The Hot Rods, The Count Bishops
and Joe Strummer’s 101ers who paved the way for the punk generation.
Their fantastic live longplayer called STUPIDITY was
released on 10 October 1976, today 50 years ago.
AllMusic said in retrospect: “All the music on Stupidity is presented raw and
without overdubs, making it clear that the dynamic friction between guitarist
Wilko Johnson and vocalist Lee Brilleaux could propel the band toward greatness.”
It topped the UK album charts.
Their only No. 1 record.
If you never heard of them, then you really
need to check out their live force here.

BAD(ASS) WAITRESS Get In Your Face While Being Drunk
Vitalizing tunes that work faster than a stream of caffeine
9 October 2026
Band: BAD WAITRESS
Who: 4 fierce art-punk provocateurs
from Toronto, Canada.
Track: I ONLY LIKE YOU WHEN I’M DRUNK
Single from their sophomore album In The Hollow,
following their 2021 debut No Taste. Tracklist and
pre-order info right here.
Info: The title sounds like a joke you might regret making the next morning, but the song itself keeps digging beneath the punchline. “You horrify me / Make everything shit around me,” vocalist Kali-Ann Butala spits at the outset, only to admit moments later that she’s still drawn in. Desire becomes something embarrassing and invasive, the kind of attraction that seems to make less sense the closer you look at it.
New album artwork
TUTV: Here’s some toxic and sick rock ‘n’ punk tumult. Bad Waitress attack your
terrified stereo, and your scared eardrums, and get in your panic-stricken face
in less than 3 minutes.
Schizoid guitars, an hysterical octopus drummer, and intoxicated spits and
snears join fighting forces to get their message loud and across anybody all
who dare to listen sober to this merciless motherrocker.
Stone the crows.
Release the bats.
Time to drink yourself in oblivion
and meet Badass Waitress.
“I only like you when I’m drunk / I only like you when I’m fucked up and crazy.”

MADONNA About PRINCE
9 October 2026
“I had dinner with Prince once, and he was just sipping tea,
very daintily. I was stuffing food down my face and I was like ‘Aren’t you gonna eat?”. And he didn’t. I have this theory about people who don’t eat. They annoy me. It’s something about being in control.”

ROBERT MOSS – Washington D.C. Rocker Delivers New Riff Roasting Cutter ‘THE MORE I SCROLL
Daily electricity to load your batteries
9 October 2026
Artist: ROB MOSS
Who: Sizzling, seasoned rocker from
Washington D.C., who has multiple albums
under his belt.
Track: THE MORE I SCROLL
His newest single.
TUTV: When you like to go nuts to glam rock mixed with riff-roasting rippers
and non-stop pounding beats, then Robert Moss is your man. His guitar is his
holy grail. For years now, he has used his six-string friend to knock out inflamed
rippers, cutting sharp and hitting hard.
No reason whatsoever to scroll here and now, people; let Moss overwhelm your
ears; it’ll be way better than terrorizing your eyes in front of your toxic screen.
“The more I scroll
The deeper the hole
It works on my brain
To make me feel bad
Yeah, the more I scroll
The greater the toll
It sucks my soul
Till it’s gone dry ”
“The less we scroll
We’ll get out of the hole
It’ll help our brains
Not always feel so bad
Yeah, the less we scroll
We’ll get out of that hole
We’ll realize what we had lost
And what we can get back
If we try”
Rock Titans AEROSMITH Return To The Stage With Star-Studded Line Up
9 October 2026
Boston‘s notorious rock titans AEROSMITH (active since 1970 – 15 albums)
return to the stage for two special shows at the Hollywood Bowl – Los Angeles
for 2 concerts, on October 29 and November 1.
In 2024, the band announced their live action retirement,
because of frontman Steve Tyler‘s (78 now) vocal injury.
But Steve‘s vocal cords are obviously working okay again.
The shows will feature an all-star cast with – take a deep breath – The Black Crowes,
RUN DMC, Heart, Andrew Watt, Billy Idol, Chad Smith (RHCP), Duff McKagan (GN’R), Eric
Church, Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Marcus King, Mike Inez (Alice In Chains), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Pat Monahan (Train), Sammy Hagar, Slash (GN’R), Steve Stevens,
Sully Erna (Godsmack), Tom Morello, Adam Wakeman, Audley Freed, Kenny Aronoff and
more (even more??), with Don Was serving as music director.
I wonder how many dressing rooms they need to get all those artists in.
Whatever it’ll be all about shutting up and dancing.
ROD STEWART – Scottish Icon Topped The UK & US Singles Chart With ‘MAGGIE MAY’ Today 55 Years Ago
Top singles from the past
9 October 2026
Scottish rock & pop icon ROD STEWART (aged 81 now) scored a No. 1 hit
in the UK and the US with MAGGIE MAY (more than 440 million streams
on Spotify) today 55 years ago, on 9 October 1971.
The song was co-written with his guitarist Martin Quittenton and
appeared on his 3rd dolo LP, titled Every Picture Tells A Story.
It also hit the top spot #1 in Canada and Australia.
Written from Stewart‘s personal experience, Maggie May expresses the ambivalence
and contradictory emotions of a boy involved in a relationship with an older woman.
The woman’s name was not Maggie May. Rod The Mod has stated that
the name was taken from “an old Liverpudlian song about a prostitute”.
“Wake up, Maggie, I think I got somethin’ to say to you.”
