[Top 10] Non-Album Releases of 2018

by Garry

1. Melon Batake a go go! – SICKxIDOLSxSICK

If you know me then you probably had little doubt that Melon Batake a go go! would be topping this list. The Rockabilly Idol group from outer space appeared on my scanners early in 2018 and to see how much they’ve grown in less than 12 months is both incredible and rewarding for me as a fan. “SICKxIDOLSxSICK” is the group’s first mini-album and it’s unconventional in a lot of ways. There’s not many Idol groups performing Rockabilly songs and only slightly more that sing predominately in the lower register. It makes them unique not only in sound but also visually, and the Horror themes they lean heavily into are pretty much the cherry on top. You need to hear this release (or their album that drops in a couple of weeks) and you need to be following Melon Batake a go go. I have a good feeling that they’re going to a go go places in 2019.
