Following a decade writing scores alongside Danny Bensi for some of the most watched TV shows and films over that period, and releasing albums as part of Tarantula and Priestbird, Saunder Jurriaans is stepping out of the shadows to put his name front and centre for the first time. I’d only heard one of the […]
There is a lot of great pop out there currently, whether that be the futuristic sounds of Charli XCX or someone who makes great old fashioned pop tunes like Taylor Swift. But there shouldn’t be room for this new album by alternative pop trio Liimo, which has my vote for the most boring album of […]
The Lemon Twigs are releasing their album ‘Songs for the General Public’, which contains 12 tracks, on the 21st August 2020. Their third album succeeds their 2018 release, their concept album ‘Go to School’, and contains completely different themes and ideas – the new album disregards any sort of link between itself and their second […]
A distorted reality is very much like a reality that sits, squeals, blinds and disposes the necessary for the nuisance of a hollowed-out product. But enough about the year 2020! (devilishly fiendish pun Rich) more fresh music rumbling out the gates for our pleasure is where I am, regardless the day, time or year. Girls […]
Stuart Moxham was part of indie-folk legends Young Marble Giants whose minimalist approach gained many fans including Kurt Cobain, whose own music may have been a million miles away in terms of volume and power, yet the similarities were there in the sentiments and attitude. When Young Marble Giants went their separate ways in 1980 […]
The second album can always be a challenging experience for any artist or group, but for The Aces they make it seem so easy. Coming off the back of their well-received first album ‘My Heart Felt Volcanic’ and a tour supporting 5 Seconds of Summer, they continue their streak of creating infectious pop songs. The […]
Just when you thought that the UK shoegaze scene was defunct, five lads from Yorkshire have given the little-appreciated genre the kiss of life. Regrettably, the quintet goes by bdrmm (presumably pronounced as bedroom). Fortunately for us, they’re much better at writing music than they are at choosing band names. It’s worth noting that bdrmm […]
The first album is difficult no matter what level you’re at, sometimes you get it right and sometimes it is just a learning curve. From what I understand, the artist DRIFT didn’t want the album to be full of singles, and wanted the project to feel like it was ‘weaving together as a whole.’ Now […]
In a world in a current flux of damage and unaware of how to mend itself, perhaps it’s forgotten what pain ‘actually’ feels like? We have the comforting wet cloth and band aid that is a new release. Though the majority of us are stuck in a confusing landscape that seems to have less clue […]
They’ve toured with the likes of Parquet Courts and Oh Sees, and released one of the catchiest singles of the year so far with ‘Texas Drums Pt. I & II’, it’s easy to see why indie fans are getting giddy over this lot. The Montreal five piece have a knack for writing hugely melodic yet […]
GIG GUIDE
Between September 2011 and March 2020 we provided a handpicked gig guide every month without fail. It's painful for us that there are currently no gigs to recommend. We hope gigs will return soon to bring you new recommendations, but if you want to reminisce you can still see nine years worth of old gig guides.
