It is endearing to hear of an act grow and evolve. In a fast-food music industry where talent is hastily dismissed, Post Rome stand as a testament to the results of continued hard work. Having been musically creative since their school years, the Sunderland band are on an upward trajectory that doesn’t look like tailing […]
Continue readingYou Need To Hear This: Gene Pool – Space Inside
Fancy embarking on a journey to another universe? I think most of us would be happy with a guilt-free trip anywhere at the moment. It’s a shame I don’t need to test my eyesight. For my fellow sight confidants/not idiots, I offer you Gene Pool’s latest album, Space Inside. Pack your imaginary bags, folks! Here’s a […]
Continue readingReview: The Choppy Bumpy Peaches – Hai
Shove six marshmallows into your mouth and try and say The Choppy Bumpy Peaches. It’s hard enough without the squishy sweets clogging up your throat. Luckily, their new single, Hai, is a little easily digestible. No antacid tablets or Heimlich manoeuvres are necessary for this funk, lo-fi rock sandwich. In the middle of this meaty feast […]
Continue readingPremiere: BOPS – Sleeplessness
Every now and then you hear a track that shakes you up a bit. You know what I mean. You’ve been sailing along, idly enjoying various wild and wonderful songs, when a tune messes with the foundations of what you’ve become accustomed to. And quite frankly, you love it. So without further ado, let me […]
Continue readingPremiere: Alien Book Club – And I’m Not Even Having Fun Anymore
Alien Book Club aren’t even having fun anymore, and it’s quite understandable. Such a lively six-piece outfit belong on the road. This is where they are free to entertain and charm audiences with their exuberant indie music. With the travelling restrictions of a COVID-19 lockdown, the tour bus handbrake is on. No wonder they aren’t […]
Continue readingSong Of The Day: Little Kid – Losing
The year is 2020. We are all quarantined during the COVID-19 pandemic. Music creators everywhere, I included, sift through the plethora of synths at our disposal. Losing by Little Kid is sent my way. Taken from the upcoming album, Transfiguration Highway, out 3rd July on Solitaire Recordings, the song is organic, pure, and sounds like it has seldom […]
Continue readingReview: SWEARS – Seersucker
Grunge. That lovely word used to describe music that’s too noisy, dirty and heavy, driving your parents out of the house. Take that, inject a hint of metal into it and you’re bound to find Middleborough-based band SWEARS in all their glory. After the release of their meaty single, Warm to Touch, in early May, SWEARS […]
Continue readingReview: Lil Cat – Red Blues
COVID-19 has done funny things to relationships. Some have broken up, others have retreated to their country homes in different parts of the world (not you Neil Gaiman, you just went home). But those who are strong enough to endure the endless cycle of criticism, and a barrage of “where’s the sauté pan?”, have found […]
Continue readingReview: Casual Fan – Runners
I stare out the window while the sweet, sweet tones of Runners by Casual Fan blast into my world; a band that I can only describe as flush with facial hair. Honestly, the group are vibrant with beards. What a hairy situation. Sorry. Runners is a slower track, equipping a softer singing voice that I would liken to […]
Continue readingInterview: Gaygirl
We’ve got another interview for you lot. I’m personally morally opposed to sharing it because I think we spoil you too much, but Daniel Thomas (the boss man) has demanded it be shipped out immediately, and I don’t want him hitting me with his belt again. So, in today’s bit of audio beauty, Rebecca Aston […]
