A noise-clad rebellion has set in, spreading outwards from the streets of South East London where INHEVAEN reside. The release of debut single ‘Regeneration’ shook the interweb into a frenzy, asking who are this band? Their wild punk spirit and insatiable lust for creating convulsive, hands-in-the-air anthems is sure to keep the chatter going for years to […]

EP REVIEW: Morning Harvey – ‘love&loveand.’
Brisbane’s psychedelic lovechilds of retro rock, Morning Harvey have put together a dreamy and thrilling twenty-something minute ride on new EP ‘love&loveand.’ Morning Harvey are a band to relish, ignited by a love for the blushing rock sounds of The Verve and The Stone Roses but grounded in ’60s and ’70s psychedelia, they provide magical wonderment for the […]
ALBUM REVIEW: Prides – ‘The Way Back Up’
Prides are a band that we have cherished ever since they stepped out perfectly formed in the summer of 2013 with their début offering ‘Out of the Blue’, and from then on it’s been hit after hit of seemingly too good to be true synth pop bangers. And with the release of the Glaswegian trio’s first full length, it […]
INTRODUCING: Silences
Ireland is picturesque with its sprawling hills and vast landscapes. So you might say that the music which is spawned there would also emanate the same attributes, this would be true of Armagh-born Conchúr White and his band, Silences. Their delicately strung and beautifully told musical tapestries behold an honest reflection of our emotional capacity […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Frances – ‘When it Comes to Us’
We often learn the most about ourselves from the tough moments in life, Frances’ beautiful piano ballads live and breathe in these moments. She shares her heartfelt wisdom with the world, and it is through these sobering truths of coming of age that she has found her calling.
SONG OF THE WEEK: Hollow States – ‘Damage I’ve Done’
There is beauty in pain and sadness in light. A perplexity which is practised candidly by Hollow States on ‘Damage I’ve Done’ with breathtaking grace, this is their best moment yet.
In Conversation with…MAN MADE
In the past year, Man Made have supported the likes of Superfood and Honeyblood, performed at Reading & Leeds festival, headed out on an 18-date UK headline tour, played the NME ‘New Breed’ tour and won the favour of many supporters in doing so. Continuing their sonic onslaught of 90s guitars and viscously catchy ear-worm […]
LISTEN IN // Natalie McCool’s Best of 2015 Playlist
Natalie McCool bares fragility, soul and a creative spark in one single breath. Her flare for crafting dramatic alt-pop songs continues to trun heads and that’s why we keep going back for more. Her latest single ‘Oh Danger’ goes further to prove why McCool is one of a kind, where ‘Pins’ laid the pathway for […]
SONG OF THE WEEK: Theo Berndt – ‘Guess You Never Thought Of It That Way’
If you were to take the melodic bounce of Vampire Weekend and the quirky art pop of Everything Everything, blend it all together in a fine melting pot of jaunty indie beats and exuberant pop fizz, then the latest single by Swedish band Theo Berndt would come out the other end. The song in question is ‘Guess You Never […]
WATCH: Flyte – ‘Closer Together’
Where most bands tend to be overly excessive when it comes to putting their creative visions into motion and creating their visual aesthetic. Flyte insist on exercising restraint and the audio visuals for their new single ‘Closer Together’ is a gleaming example of this. The end product is a charming, nonchalant look into the bands personal […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Why We Run – ‘Ignites’
The second release from Sydney’s Why We Run is accomplished, showcasing the bands ability to craft beautifully nuanced melodies and calming euphoric moments. ‘Ignites’ gallops with immediacy as a rolling drum beat draws you in and then releases you in a dreamlike wonder.
SONG OF THE WEEK: Slow Riot – ‘City of Culture’
It’s been a while since we last heard from Irish trio Slow Riot, and a lot has changed for them. They recently signed to London label Straight Lines are Fine and have just completed work on their new EP ‘Cathedral’. The first single to be taken off the EP is the fuzzed-up powerplay ‘City of Culture’.
INTRODUCING: GLEAM
Birmingham shoegazers GLEAM are like the beautiful bi-product of My Bloody Valentine and Smashing Pumpkins. Bathed in 90s alternative influences, GLEAM make us excited for about their future.
SONG OF THE WEEK: Broken Hands – ‘Meteor’
Canterbury five-piece Broken Hands are headed on a collision course with a ‘Meteor’ on their new space rock enthused masterpiece. ‘Meteor’ is the second single to be taken off the bands forthcoming debut album, and from what we’ve heard so far, it seems like their trajectory is only heading in one direction: skywards.
In Conversation with…SLOES
London based Sloes are quite possibly the best thing that 2015 has brought us, fusing contemporary indie music with classical elements, the band have created a captivating and unique sound that is distinctively their own. Having just released their debut EP ‘Chasing Tails’ the band are flourishing with potential and have set our hearts a-flutter with anticipation for what’s next.
LISTEN IN // Lostboycrow’s Summer Jamz
Since LA’s Lostboycrow released the first taste of his hybrid sound, of electronic alt-pop and deliciously dark R&B flavours late last year, he has garnered the love and praise of many tastemakers, and shot to the top of our list of must-see acts. Currently in the middle of a residency at LA’s Dirty Laundry, which […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Fairchild – ‘Hot Rod’
Like the polarising climates of their home country, Australia and their new-found home of the UK, Fairchild’s AA-side single consists of two very different sonic palettes. One soars with bright guitars and fervent rhythms, and the other is a sultry, menacing synth rock blaster. The latter is the final track to be unveiled from the new release, […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Many Things – ‘Burn Together’
Many Things make indie music fun. Energy, passion and emotion run through every melodious vocal turn and every melancholic thought turns into something beautifully profound. ‘Burn Together’ is the latest track that the band have unveiled. In fact, it’s the eponymous track from their forthcoming debut album. And with it being the bands most definitive […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Tired Lion – ‘Suck’
Nostalgia runs wild within the delicious thrash of Tired Lion’s grunge rock, both violently anthemic and temptingly cool. Tired Lion are spearheading the campaign for a 90s revolution, harking back to a time when ripped jeans and crop tops ruled the streets, like they do once again. Tired Lion’s latest release ‘Suck’ is fiercely brutal in honest reflection, raging […]
LISTEN: Fairchild – ‘Nom De Guerre’
Aussie band Fairchild have recently up-sticks and moved to England, and with the relocation comes new music from the six piece. Following on from last years ‘Sadako’ EP is a AA-side single. ‘Nom De Guerre’ is the first track to be released – an infectious Foals-esque anthem of epic proportions. Bubbling with boundless energy, smouldering vocals […]
