The Big Moon are really, really engaging. On record this is the case, but live it is even more pronounced. For a band that are ostensibly garage-rock, there is an intelligence and proficiency to both the song-writing and performance that many other bands aim for, but end up falling well short. There is always multiple […]
The first glimmer of new material from Reading-based Saltwater Sun has finally fallen from the sky, the band caught our eye with last year’s storming debut EP, ‘Wild’. The new cut see’s the group call for action in full shimmering power-pop glory on ‘Now Or Never’.
When the time comes to announce yourself to the world, you have one of two options – One, a quiet solitary ‘Here I am’ or Two, a rearing of the head that makes all other heads turn with it. EAT FAST opted for the latter. These newcomers have ravished and accumulated all in their path […]
We all know the infamous Craig David song about the days of the week, but here ‘Thursday’ takes on a completely different meaning. The sophisticated cut takes Lostboycrow’s sultry R&B pop to breathtaking highs, with some flirtatious winks added in for the extra swoon. This is the L.A. artist at his most vulnerable and sexiest […]
‘My Love, My Lover’ brings about a collaboration that will spark an endless love affair, like the classics have done before them, from Dolly and Kenny‘s ‘Islands in the Stream’ all the way to Sandy and Danny‘s ‘You’re the One That I Want’, these two Aussie musicians match perfectly like the milk to the other’s honey.
Liverpool-based Her’s made a startling entrance upon releasing debut ‘Dorothy’ – with its darkly swooning intelligence, it made for a starry-eyed introduction to the duo’s throwback sound. Arriving in quick succession is the second half of the release, the wistful and indulgently dreamy ‘What Once Was’.
The Loose Cut are ambitious. Their sound cuts through the noise, it’s a thunderous call to the heavy rock of QOTSA. Unforgettable and wonderfully intense, the four piece are here to make their presence known.
The esoteric Kent-hailing, now London-based troop spat out their opening statement last month to a celebratory yelp from all who were lucky enough to stumble on the slacker grunge of their delicious debut, ‘Gunblade’. Returning with a wistful slice of equally rambunctious labours, the trio unveil ‘Drive All Night’.
Flyte are a band who wear their hearts on the sleeves. Every little aspect from the music video’s to the press shots to the music itself is precious, honest and heartwarmingly timeless. These Londoners are big on harmonies and drench themselves in feeling.
James Brown preached that it’s ‘A man’s world’, Klangstof echoes this sentiment in the titular track of his latest double release. But ‘Amansworld’ is far removed from the tortured soul of Brown‘s classic. Klangstof rather captivates on a whole different level with darkly painted vocals, hypnotizing electronics and dynamic progressions.
Appearing from out of the depths of Yorkshire is a promising young band named NGOD. The quintet hail from Bradford, and are primed and ready to make a name for themselves outside of their hometown. New single ‘Blue’ is a feel good, supercharged bolt of alt-rock that is no less indebted to its addictive charms […]
Brace yourselves, summer is coming. And with it, the tropical indie bliss of Labradoor’s latest release ‘Silence’.
You’d have thought a minute and 30 seconds wasn’t enough time to write a fully formed song, but as The White Stripes, The Hives, and now Johnny Kills have proven, that’s time-a-plentiful.
Following a stonking set at this year’s Live At Leeds festival, we caught up with the city’s own Narcs. Despite channelling a political urgency and visceral stage presence, the guys were jovial and friendly on initial meeting. Frontman Wilko arrived with a pair of freshly picked daisies, and brought Joe (lead guitarist) and John (bassist) […]
Live at Leeds are celebrating the culmination of ten years leading thousands of punters through the streets of the Yorkshire city to experience the finest new live talent that both the UK and the world has to offer. With no exception, the festival organisers have solidified and strengthened their name once again with the plethora […]
It feels like Indoor Pets are on the cusp of great success, the Sittingbourne fun merchants are motoring at a great neck speed. From touring with the hottest new kids on the block, VANT to scoring a highly prized opening slot for those garage rock marauders, Spring King. It’s been a hectic 2016 for Indoor […]
It’s always a good day when we receive new music from Yorkshire teenager, Billie Marten and this time is no exception. While the title of her new single may suggest a raiding of the kitchen’s larder, here we find Marten overturning much deeper thoughts than ever before. ‘Milk & Honey’, as she explains is “a song about […]
Somerset noise-makers October Drift have been flying the flag high for independent bands since they formed, be it their relentless commitment to their craft and solid work ethic, it’s hard to not find their passion admirable.

Pop has a new rising star and her name is Sara Hartman. She’s already toured with powerhouse Ellie Goulding and is soon to be joining X Ambassadors on their US tour, this May. But first she brings us her brightest pop constellation to date and the title track of her debut EP – ‘Satellite’.
Never before has isolation and loneliness sounded so life affirming than on ‘The Loner’, the new cut from Boston/LA/Hull (putting it on the map!) band SKATERS, taken from the band’s forthcoming EP ‘Rock and Roll Bye’. With an opening guitar jab that sounds ominously like the lead into a Wombats esque indie-pop jaunt, this proves a […]
