1.

Underground

Combining the elements of electric and acoustic rock, Underground have created a unique sound of their own. With the expert assistance of engineering team Lach Wooden and Mikey Young (aka Eddy Current), the boys have exploded back into action with a brand new EP filled with powerful riffs and foot stomping energy.
THE BAND: Sean - Vocals/Guitar, James - Guitar, Clay - Bass, Evan – Drums

Following a successful year playing a number of live shows at local venues, Underground have continued to broaden their horizons. Channelling a wide range of rock influences the band have exploded back into action with their latest recording “Wise Up”, an EP filled with powerful riffs and foot stomping energy. Recorded with the assistance of experienced local sound engineer Lachlan Wooden (Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Cat Empire, Clairy Browne), Underground have further expanded their unique blend of melodic, alternative and acoustic rock. With a fresh sound, a diverse and energetic live set and a stack of new material, the boys are bringing their very own acoustic vibe to the stage.

A little truth goes a long way, especially when the message comes in the form of music! Get up, stand up and wise up is what millions are saying all over the planet and of course it started Underground. The first single “Wise Up” from their album by the same name, is a real solid tune, guaranteed to start your feet tapping and your head boppin’. What a great way to kick off this edition of United Music Mag.

Striving to revive an organic sound, the "Americana Rock" band, The People was formed in the spring of 2015.

Southbound Snake Charmers – (Blues)

The Southbound Snake Charmers are a Blues Rock power trio that use elements of Psychedelia, Stoner, Swamp and Voodoo Blues to conjure up their own unique sound, producing an eclectic experience the band like to call "Big Chunky Grooving Psychedelic Electric Dirty Blues!"

Although the bands overall sound may be hard to pigeon hole, influences of Cream, Rory Gallagher and Thin Lizzy shine through and Chris’ Vocals have at times been compared stylistically to that of Johnny Winter.

Supporting some of their favourite acts like Collard Greens & Gravy, Bo Jenkins and Dave Tice (Buffalo), the band have performed around Melbourne since 2013
The band’s debut EP “The Dirt Blues” was released in 2014 and the follow up EP “Voodoo chicken Shack” in 2016 which is gaining overseas interest.

What started out as 3 guitarists playing their original style of delta blues has progressed through various stages of blues experimentation until reaching where they are today, a power trio.

What’s not to like about this band? Awesome rockin’ swaying blues with an attitude! That’s what the “Southbound Snake Charmers” bring to the table with their second EP “VooDoo Chicken Shack”. A five song EP that should be in your rock music collection!

My personal favourite, and it was hard to pick one from this EP, is “Moonshine Runners Blues”, an Infectious rockin’ Blues tune packed with energy to capture your soul and take you down the road at high speed. But don’t take my word for it, check out the FULL EP to discover what I mean by 5 great tunes! Then see what they are up to by visiting their social links. (See Below)

Psychic Ills

When it comes to following the beat of their own drum, New York’s Psychic Ills have exemplified the phrase since their beginnings in 2003. Initially spawned from electronic-centered home recording experiments, they progressed into an all-night full-band exploration in a neighborhood where noise wasn’t a problem.

The Psychic Ill’s caught my ears on Bandcamp recently as I was browsing what’s new in music. Once I started listening to their album “Inner Journey” I found I couldn’t stop listening, as the mellow psychedelic hooks were too pleasing to let go. Their song “I Don’t Mind” is truly a state of mind as is their new album “Inner Journey”. Why not check it out on Bandcamp and then check out what the band is up to by visiting their social websites.

I don’t mind - (2016)
