The Bryony Williams banger, I Can Be, I have graciously been handed is brimming with self-confidence, and why wouldn’t it be? It’s a song so pleasing to the ears that it reminded me of that time I got thirteen pieces of chicken at KFC instead of twelve. Good Lord, if only my life could meet such […]
Song Of The Day: Martha Hill – Grilled Cheese
When feeling that late afternoon hunger, and in need of a warm carby hit, I make a grilled cheese. Buttered sourdough bread, mature cheddar, cream cheese, combined and placed in a scorching hot pan, cut into triangles (very important) and dipped in ketchup. Like Martha Hill, I too believe raw onions have no place on […]
Review: Rachel Angel – Highway Songs
At the age of nineteen, I underwent a terrible experience that would go on to shape the next few years of my life. There was a lot of pain along the way, but gradually I rebuilt myself from scratch and came out of those tumultuous times as a healthier, more confident person. These days, I […]
Review: Born Idiot – I’d Rather Lie
We’ve all been there. You’re scrolling down Instagram. You see food, adverts, pets, artwork, and before long, you witness that post. The ex-partner with someone new. Someone better. Someone who just isn’t you. You move to unfollow their account but can’t bring yourself to do it. You still feel attached to the person. You have […]
Review: Bleach Lab – Sleep
One of the best things about lockdown has been the lie-ins. I’ve been snoozing like a newborn baby whenever and wherever I want. Unfortunately, official health guidelines warn against oversleeping, as this can have adverse effects upon the physical and mental state of the individual. Well doctors, today I’ve discovered proof that you can’t get […]
Song Of The Day: Snow Coats – Pool Girl
After building their reputation with the critically acclaimed debut album Take The Weight Off Your Shoulders, and an extensive tour supporting Pinegrove last year, indie-pop quartet Snow Coats are back with a new single titled Pool Girl. Taken from their forthcoming EP, also called Pool Girl and due out on September 11th via Alcopop Records!, this pop-infused song has all the elements of […]
Review: Kaleiders – Wheels
Some days, I wake up feeling chilled out. When choosing the soundtrack for my coffee and breakfast making ritual, I like to pick something laid back that will ease me into the day gently. But you know what? Sometimes it’s better to jump in at the deep end before you’ve had a chance to wipe […]
Premiere: MY-HI – Digital Depression
Rent your tuxedos and long, sparkly dresses and book a limo, it’s premiere time! Don’t actually do those things. We are still socially distancing. Today’s spotlight shines brightly on MY-HI, an alt-rock band who are releasing a new single tomorrow called Digital Depression. The title alone conjures up thoughts of the effects of the internet […]
Review: Milk TV – One Leg Performer
The genre-evading and completely dysfunctional no wave scene is characteristically very abrasive and dissonant. Many would be fooled into believing that this style could not be full of hooks, catchy as hell and just downright pleasant without it compromising on its nihilism and lack of convention. Well, Milk TV did not get the memo. After […]
Premiere: New Ghost – Your Reds
Throughout musical history, there has been many a supergroup formed. One recent collaboration is the Sheffield art-rock band New Ghost; a melding of minds from the best that the UK alternative scene has to offer. Their latest song, Your Reds, is a fantastic piece of emotive and dramatic shoegazey post-rock that will surely leave you […]
