When I saw the words Soccer Mommy appear on my screen, I thought it was just Google suggesting things I might enjoy based on my seedy browser history. But I shouldn’t have; I was introduced to Soccer Mommy as an artist a while ago; when a song called Scorpio Rising peacefully entered my life through my […]

Premiere: Stanleys – A Better Life
Have you ever been to Wigan? No?! You’re missing out. Famous for pea wet and babbies yeds, its beltin’. The music scene is pretty cool too. Bands like Bad Water, The Shook-Ups, and Cactus Knife have all rock and rolled their way into the history books. Then there are greats venues like The Tudor that’ll […]
Review: Parrot Dream – Woven
I’ve always been intrigued by the process of coming up with a band name. Recently I’ve come across acts titled Turkish Delight (tasty), Captain Handsome, Unqualified Nurse Band, and Pet Crow. Then there’s Brooklyn-based, dream pop idols Parrot Dream. Parrot Dream?!? Amazing. Do Parrot’s dream? Probably about being ten foot and attacking people. I used […]
Review: Indigo Face – Wild
I’m having such a rubbish day. I woke up late, had to go to the toilet, brush my teeth and have a shower all at the same time. The logistics were all over the place. It was like watching a giraffe on rollerblades trying to play basketball. Then, when I finally got to work, my […]
Premiere: EIRENE – True Love
We’re super excited to premiere the official release of EIRENE’s new single True Love. From Aarhus in Denmark, the trio have dragged their t-shirts and shorts out of the wardrobe and are ready for True Love this summer. Expect pop, expect soul, expect a concoction of summer vibes and great experiences. This is a song […]
Interview: Fences
A lot has changed since Fences released the last album Lesser Oceans. The musical evolution of the band has always been an interesting one, with the mind-spawn of Christopher Mansfield offering a clutch of sensitively charged indie-rock songs. Currently touring solo off the back of his new single A Mission, cut to this month and […]
Premiere: Soma Sons – IO
Hi. Hello. Bonjour. How are you today? Good? Cool. Today we’re premiering Soma Sons new single, IO. Not 10, you fool. IO! From Manchester, these alt-rockers are too friendly. Perverts. Sorry, not the band-members, I’m referring to their music. It’s dirty in a kinky way. You won’t want a shower after listening to IO; you’ll […]
Premiere: Regional Creeps – For Real
In the UK, a regional creep is usually a shady individual who likes to hang around in the park and drink White Lightning (for you foreign folks, it’s crappy cider). They usually have pigeon mates too. “There’s Tony. His name’s Pete; he usually flies around Tesco” – he proclaims as he strokes your leg. Sorry, […]
Interview: Basciville
I’m not going to lie. I knew nothing of Basciville until a lovely lady called Jenna O’Neill shared their latest record Post Youth on an IMN Facebook post. I was that intrigued I even took my MacBook Air to the toilet and played the song while having a poo. Or maybe it was a wee? […]
Review: Wy – Softie
Two years after releasing their debut album Okay, Swedish duo Wy return with their hypnotising second record, Softie. Self-described as “turbulent”, “back and forth” and “non-conforming” this is the album I didn’t know I needed in my life. Formed in 2015, the duo comprises of Ebba Agren and Michel Gustafsson. With a similar sound to […]
