Track Premiere: (Song For A) Wasted Land - You Said Strange

Cigarettes, the main character of You Said Strange’s new music video premiered here today for (Song For A) Wasted Land. A picture of endless consumption yet a simple source of comfort in a story of a disaster. However, (Song For A) Wasted Land is a strangely optimistic depiction

Harry Styles: Harry's House album review

“‘Cause once you go without it, nothing else will do”: the collective thought of Styles' fans for the past 890 days since Harry’s album release, Fine Line. Since leaving One Direction, the Millennial fashion and music icon has proved himself as a solo musical talent across a span

New music: Just Mustard - Still

Your head immediately spins from the whirring noise, but if you stick around for long enough, the sting of perhaps the most beautiful yet terrifying bass note knocks you straight. If it weren’t for the vocals, you’d have thought you’d just walked into your local drug lord's front

Dylan John Thomas - Feel the Fire

Album Reviews, Reviews

Dylan John Thomas shares new track 'Feel the Fire' to ignite big future.

Comparing young Dylan John Thomas to The View sounds like a cheap cop out, but there are similarities beyond the accent. His new single Feel the Fire is overflowing with that bouncy energy that battles its way into the songs of emerging Scottish artists. Although I’ve not had th

New music: nudista - Confess

I know it's difficult to keep up with our new music recommendations, but here's a nice one for you. Confess. Confess was penned by Pilar Matji Cabello and Robbie Carman ( nudista ) just before the pandemic escalated, but has rung just as true throughout it. The song’s about comin

New music: deep tan - deepfake

Here, I’ve a cool new band for you. They’ve got a new single out called deepfake. Deepfakes. When the viral video created by Jordan Peele of Obama surfaced in 2018, fear cloaked the internet of the potential political implications. Now, in 2020, it’s come to light that 96% of de

Goat Girl are back *evil laugh*

It’s rare that I come across a track like this. After such a lull in music, attitude and general fucking life, it’s thrilling to be reminded by the sloppy kiss of a spacey guitar that not everything is uninspired at the moment. This track alone has served an expected fist beneath

Review: A. Swayze & The Ghosts - Paid Salvation

It kicks off frighteningly similar to Franz Ferdinand. Did I consider switching it off? Nearly. Am I glad I didn’t? Absolutely. There are no half-arsed, smug vocals in here, just a delightfully refreshing record that hones in on any lazy, unimaginative thoughts of yours and boots

Now then! After a ridiculous amount of celebrating Leeds United's promotion back to the big time (well aware this isn’t popular among anybody outside of Leeds) and a trip away to Newquay with the No Taste gang, I’m just about physically and mentally recovered enough to bring you

A review of Silverbacks debut album, Fad

Silverbacks are set to release their debut album on 17th July via Central Tones after a slow stream of singles on Soundcloud dating back to 2015. It’s this laidback approach that births the creativeness and holds the resilience of the band. They’re able to take a step back and n

Wesley Gonzalez, Appalling Human: A review

Synth heavy, summer filled tracks have a certain melancholy tagged to them by default this year. Something feels inherently wrong about sitting on my own listening to cheery saxophones, funky backing guitars and sliding bass while I’m sat in the garden bar (shed) on an old flower

Hanni El Khatib's new album FLIGHT is a whooole bag of tricks

Reinventing yourself as an artist is tough. Constant comparisons to prior works, crowds clamouring for the hits, pressures from labels. And yet, here is one who, with his latest album FLIGHT, has achieved this and more. Blues-punk wordsmith Hanni El Khatib’s new creation is unlik

My Airpods broke... I’ve escaped back up North to the family home for lockdown, so the dynamics of listening to music have changed. Gone of the days where I can listen to music laid in bed without my little brother asking if I want a fight. It’s not all bad, though, there’s a ha
