ALBUM REVIEW – CHELA: DIAGONAL DRIFT

Side projects offer the ideal space for artists to reveal previously unseen aspects of their musical fascinations. The band Bo Ningen is associated with brutal slabs of heavy psychedelic guitar assaults but the first release from Chela allows their guitar mangler and synth wrangler Kohhei Matsuda to reveal a more experimental side. On ’Diagonal Drift’ […]
Taking their cues from the likes of Sam Fender and Fleetwood Mac amongst others, indie-pop four piece South By Zero have been steadily gaining a following in Manchester and beyond, thanks to a stunning debut EP and recently released single ‘Open Arms’. The band play The Deaf Institute Lodge on 7th October 2023. Who are […]

ALBUM REVIEW – DUN RINGILL: 150-WHERE THE OLD GODS PLAY ACT 1

Sometimes, you listen to a band and imagine that one Tuesday, sitting at the kitchen table two retired parents watch their middle-aged child emerge from his basement bedroom, long hair flowing, leather jacket shining in the midday light, carrying his spiky guitar off to band practice and they just look at one another as if […]

INTERVIEW: THE LAST DINNER PARTY

Ahead of a stellar Deaf Institute show on 28 July, Silent Radio caught up with one of the most talked about bands of 2023, London’s The Last Dinner Party. The five-piece are exceptionally unusual in that they have built their fledgling reputation based largely on their live reputation. Halfway through their second year of hype, […]
At a Tarot reading during the pandemic, Ryan Fuson of Holy Wave was struck by the Five of Cups card which signifies loss and grief. A cloaked figure with a bowed head looming over three spilled chalices while ignoring the two full vessels, it is seen as symbolising dwelling in a negative past rather than […]

LIVE REVIEW: THE LAST DINNER PARTY – DEAF INSTITUTE 28/07/23

The Last Dinner Party are breaking all the rules. Tonight, they have sold out the jewel in the Manchester live music crown having released exactly two songs; by the time they are back in town in October to play the much larger Academy 2, they’re unlikely to have released many more. This is virtually unheard […]
Today, the ever-industrious John Dwyer releases the latest video, ‘Stunner’ from OSEES forthcoming album, ‘Intercepted Message’. Dwyer describes the album as “A pop record for hard times” and “Early grade garage pop meets proto-synth punk suicide-repellent”. Judging from the singles released so far, it is guaranteed to be a blast. ‘Intercepted Message’ will be released […]

NEWS: ANIMAL COLLECTIVE ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM

Animal Collective will release their new studio album ‘Isn’t It Now?’ on September 29th via Domino. Their structure has long been that of a playground, an open space for exercising and indulging new notions and influences, for saying “Why not?” from way up on the high beams. Maybe that means allowing Panda Bear to focus on his drumming more or […]
Opening with strong, powerful electric guitar, Uzumaki’s debut EP ‘Square One’ strikes every emotion within only four tracks. On the first track ‘Hey There’ you can tell that there are multiple guitars used in the song. Different guitar riffs pile together to create a striking and passionate effect. An intense and long intro opens the […]
