Top 3 Indies Videos 7/14/18! IDestroy, The Speedways, THE MOST, CCS (Japan)!

It’s time once again for the Top 3 Indies Artist Video Countdown for July 14, 2018!

Starting us off today if a fab group from Bristol, United Kingdom! Three ladies who call themselves, “IDestroy!” Look at these awesome review the ladies have been getting:

“IDestroy really have delivered the goods with their second EP, an explosion of riotous energy that makes you want to get up and throw something, or possibly yourself, across the room.” – Kerrang! Magazine

“If you like your rock’n’roll short, sharp and spiky, then Bristol grrrl rockers IDestroy might just be your favourite new band. They snap, they crackle, they pop, and they wear studded leather jackets with a feisty punk sneer.” – Classic Rock Magazine

Pure Joy of Life” should propel them into the next level – radio, TV, festivals and stardom.” – Louder Than War

Of course, they have a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Idestroyband/

#3) IDestroy – Lemons: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNzP30FPPPs

Next up at #2 are a band who was introduced to us by Alex Kish of Wassup Rocker Radio fame. The band’s name is “The Speedways” and they list their hometown as “Squaresville” all the while  their bio is a mystery. The Speedways do, though, claim their genre is: “ClassicPowerPop/HeavyOnTheHeartacheRock n Roll/’RonettesPunk.'”

This week’s #1 are Sweden’s best 60s Beat, Mod, Rock band, The Most! Holy Shit! The Most are so famous and fab, they even have a Wikipedia page! Wow! The Most bio says, “The Most is a Beat band from Umeå, Sweden… Drawing inspiration from old Blues, Jazz, Bluegrass, 50-60s Soul, 50-60s R&B but also from bands like The Zombies, The Kinks, and The Who, their music has been described as 1960s retro pop.”

Besides that, the Most graced the soundtrack of “Ghostroads – A Japanese Rock n Roll Ghost Story” with a today’s killer track! (For more on”Ghostroads – A Japanese Rock n Roll Ghost Story” scroll down!)
