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 […]
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 […]
‘Breathe Deep’ is the highly anticipated debut album from Oscar Jerome who is part of London’s burgeoning nu-jazz scene. Now, before we continue, don’t let the term, jazz, put you off. For anyone who has been following how the scene has developed over the last few years you’ll know that Jerome and many of his […]
Haim are back! After their more pop-leaning second album, they return with the posthumously titled ‘Women in Music Pt. III’. I can now say with no uncertainty that this is probably one of, if not the, best albums of the year, and it’s only June. ‘Women in Music Pt. III’ is their most personal, inventive […]
Death Valley Girls hit the streets once again with a single release of ‘Breakthrough’. A very charming and inviting success at merging the ‘old rock’ sound into a modern sound. They’ve got their influences tied into their groove without relying to much on just ‘sound like they did okay!’. Having never listened to the group […]
