ART HOUSE FOR BEACH HOUSE

American dream pop duo Beach House release the new video for ‘The Traveller’, taken from their latest record Thank Your Lucky Stars (2015). In this video, the imagery most definitely matches the loose socketed sound. Dreamy, slightly ethereal, Victoria Legrand’s vocal soothes the synth and guitar whilst the distorted 80’s VHS style movement unfolds. Directed […]
UK Indie darlings Daughter release video for the rather odd track “No Care”, taken from their latest record ‘Not to Disappear’ (2016). When you first watch the video for “No Care” it comes across very 90s, probably due to its parts in black and white and flashing reds whilst the band perform. The music itself […]

DAUGHTER REALLY DON’T CARE

BEACH SLANG GET SECOND OUTING

*Guest Editor Pick Philadelphia’s heart punching, crowd pleasing punk rockers Beach Slang unveil “Punks in A Disco Bar”, taken from their second record ‘A Loud Bash of Teenage Feelings’. Apart from the likes of Placebo, The Smiths and Fat White Family, hardly any other groups have really gripped me like Beach Slang have. Only hearing […]
*Guest Editor Pick The Garden are probably one of the strangest acts I’ve ever heard. I know a lot of people say that about anything abit kooky or alternative, but this shit’s in another universe. “Call This # Now” is basically the soundtrack to a 70’s game show, sandwiched between short bursts of DIY punk/hardcore. […]

THE GARDEN WANT THEIR PARTY, NOW

‘Scars’ is the new track from DIY rock/punk band False Advertising, you’ll be sure to like it if you’re into anything with fuzzy guitar. After a busy few months for the group, including a slot at Liverpool’s Sound City (even if this year it was abit shit) and supporting Husker Du oldboy Bob Mould, the […]

CW STONEKING, THE KING OF BLUES, WILL NEVER BE DETHRONED

DOUGLAS DARES TO DOUBLETHINK

London based singer-songwriter Douglas Dare returns with brand new track, “Doublethink”, inspired by Orwellian study and manifestations in his own life. It’s quite a beautiful track really, even if it’s not as delicate as other material, such as “Caroline”. You can really hear the pain in his voice. The stroking of the keys and percussion, […]
U.S. folk and synth man John Grant unveils the brand new video for “Global Warming”, taken from his latest record ‘Grey Tickles, Black Pressure’ (2015). In what has been an eventful and fruitful past few years for the former Czars member, Grant has brought his “A” game to this frightening and rather poetic video. Directed […]
