Celebrating the wave of critical acclaim that has been guided her way recently, McCool has followed it up in the only way she knows how, by unveiling a new work – the empowering new single, ‘Fortress’. A tribal synth-led rallying call to join together and make a difference, as we ‘build our fortress.’ McCool is heading […]
London-based singer/songwriter, Charlie Cunningham reminds us that there is beauty in understatement. His distinctly British touch is intertwined with the Latin flavours of the sun-baked region of Andalusia, sculpted from the years he spent living there. His newest offering ‘Blindfold’, lifted from his third EP ‘Heights’, takes his delicate introspection and rhythmic style to new soaring levels.
Swimming Tapes are still in their infancy. But since emerging a mere two months ago, the London band have played a couple of introductory shows and have finally uncovered their wonderful debut release, ‘Souvenirs’.
Limerick post-punk offensive Slow Riot are back, with a new sonic explosion, the equally biting and brooding ‘Trophy Wife’.
It was a few months ago when we discovered the haunting storytelling of Swedish singer, Albin Lee Meldau, when he supported AURORA on a string of UK dates. Now having officially launched his debut single ‘Lou Lou’, we can’t say we ever want to be free of Meldau’s beautiful rapture.
I think by now, we all know that Brighton has become a breeding ground for the scuzzy noise of punks and rockers to vent their angst, and wail their lungs out across the city’s sandy shores, and we love them for that. Drawing our attention back to their windswept shores is the thundering call of […]
Brighton’s retro-leaning indie band The DuBarrys are back with their first new material since 2014. The band having regrouped and gained a new member, have come back stronger and more refined than ever before. Returning with new single, ‘Catch The Rider’, they are staking their claim on the emotive, ear-worm friendly title that’s been reserved for […]
Flaunting an American slacker swagger, ‘2AM’ is an earnest and endearing piece of music from Bear Hands, which throbs and chugs throughout with all the ache and emotional strain that comes with growing older.
VITAMIN are probably the most exciting new band you’ll hear that have emerged out of the indie pop world, since Foster the People came raging on to the scene at the tail end of the noughties. Their crowning glory is their new single ‘This Isn’t Love’ – a sharp burst of zingy melodic pop, that features […]
Sometimes a track is lifted above its average-to-good trajectory towards becoming something more special by a single aspect. In this particular case Sarah Negahdari’s unique and soaring vocals provide an impassioned centre-point to Happy Hollows’ new single ‘Way Home’. A swirly-synthy build-up makes way for a driving alt-rock section, ushered in by the shiver-inducing first […]
Upon entering the hallowed halls of famed Manchester venue, Band on the Wall, it becomes adamantly clear that a good night will be had. Known for its eclectic and defining status as a music venue, it seems that there is no better place to house tonight’s acts. Both headliner, Roo Panes and supporting act, Jack […]
Equipped with sparkling guitar lines and a rousing sense of optimism, Birmingham quartet Swerve’s self-titled EP is a relaxing, laid-back collection of shoegaze ditties.
Vinten is Cameron Paice. An indie-folk artist that has nurtured a captivating sound into an amalgamation of something that is both contemporary and traditional. The new single ‘Creep’ is Vinten at his most poignant, brooding best.
It’s time to get serious, we have new music from October Drift, the first fruits to appear from them since the drawls of winter began. ‘Losing My Touch’ continues their assault on our defenceless hearts, with the band offering up an abrasive sonic shock of shoegaze gloom. Yet there are still glimmers of light that […]
If Moby were to create an intro, perched in a quaint little coffee shop, whilst Florence Welch – having just returned to the table after a shot of espresso, brings her customary thumpingly addictive drum beats. Foreign Air’s second single ‘In The Shadows’ would be the bi-product of that.
Roo Panes will release his sophomore album, Paperweights at the end of the week. Collectively the record boasts ten subtly-worn poetic moments, that effectively showcase Panes’ maturity as a songwriter and instinctive outlook on life.
Lostboycrow continues to inspire us with his eternally wide-eyed postivity and graceful electro-R&B, alt-pop. He recently released his stunning debut EP ‘Sigh For Me’ – a collection of emotionally-driven and personal stories about the power of infatuation.
Whoever says that creativity in music is dead, hasn’t journeyed to the outer reaches of our isle. Case in point, within the sleepy, commuter-friendly pastures of Kent hides a heaving underbelly of dreamers and creatives. Who’s progressive thinking, and real love for exploring the very limits of where self-expression and sonic inventiveness can take them, has […]
It seems as though for years there have been factions of British adolescents hidden away, listening to a concoction of psychedelia and grunge, waiting for the perfect time to emerge. Palma Violets heard the wanting wake-up calls, and JAWS awoke from their slumber to follow suit; it’s only right that RINSE join the party now.
EAT are still a fairly new band to our ears, but ever since they came crashing into our pages with their rip-roaring debut ‘Byker Drone’, we have been craving more from the illusive scuzz-pop rabble. And today, we finally have a new piece to the puzzle, coming in the form of ‘Byker Lime Slicer’ (we see a theme is starting […]
