You may have missed it when The Mysterines creeped quietly onto the scene in 2018 with small fanfare and you would also be forgiven if you overlooked the stream of fast paced and filthy indie blues tracks the Liverpool group have spent the past four years drip feeding the world, but there’s absolutely no ignoringContinue reading “The Mysterines – Reeling”

Soccer Mommy – Shotgun
We’re not sure if ‘Shotgun’ was written about a nightmare, toxic relationship situation or if it’s an infatuated love song. Either way, it’s steeped deep with emotion, whether or not it’s joy or pain. And such is the magnificence of Soccer Mommy Sophie Allison’s song writing skill, a record exerting the lyrical prowess of poeticContinue reading “Soccer Mommy – Shotgun”
Krush Puppies – Why
The second instalment of South London four-piece Krush Puppies’ ‘Love Kills The Demons’ EP is a ponderously lilting affair covered in heavenly keyboards and slow, droning fuzz-guitar effects, succeeding in sounding heavy and somehow delicate all at once, repeatedly attempting to fathom from the memory of a past relationship: “And I keep on asking whyContinue reading “Krush Puppies – Why”
Beabadoobee – Talk
A paradisiac concoction of sugar sweet pop and Pavement inspired slacker college rock, London singer-songwriter extraordinaire Beabadoobee has delivered a brand new single, ‘Talk’, to introduce us to forthcoming album ‘Beatopia’, the follow up to her 2020 debut ‘Fake It Flowers’. The dream mix ture of bubblegum and indie, ‘Talk’ uses squalling guitar effects andContinue reading “Beabadoobee – Talk”
The Publics – Marathon In Heels
Feeling a little late to the shindig here, but we’ve just stumbled across the latest single from Nottingham five piece The Publics ‘Marathon In Heels’ and it’s a bit of a show-stopper. Soaring, full gusted indie rock, like Courteeners if they were from a little further south, the track is both a tribute to girlsContinue reading “The Publics – Marathon In Heels”
Andrew Cushin – Catch Me If You Can
The latest instalment from Newcastle’s most touted’s forthcoming debut EP ‘You Don’t Belong’, due out on April 22nd, is sauntering strut of a single ‘Catch Me If You Can’. Andrew Cushin’s inimitable, wordly vocals recount his fascination with “the girl without intentions” – “she showed me things I never should have seen, yeah she’s brokenContinue reading “Andrew Cushin – Catch Me If You Can”
The Clockworks – Endgame
Galway via London four-piece The Clockworks have come out with a turbulently energetic new single, Endgame. The track, built on top of a violently euphonious guitar line, is named after the Samuel Beckett play rather than the Marvel film and sees frontman James McGregor take on the persona of a pool playing lush, going outContinue reading “The Clockworks – Endgame”
Working Men’s Club – Widow
If New Order had mastered their way around synthesisers and drum machines a few years earlier and pioneered their electro concept while Ian Curtis was still about then they may have managed to come up with something in the style of ‘Widow’. Frontman Syd Minksy-Sargeant’s melodic-cyborg vocals speak horror film lyrics over deceptively euphoric synth-notesContinue reading “Working Men’s Club – Widow”
Serotones – Nothing’s What It Seems
Ladies and Gents, we have an epic on our hands here in the form of Serotones latest track ‘Nothing’s What It Seems’. Clocking in at a smidgen over the five minute mark, the York quintet led by Duke Witter – offspring of Shed Seven frontman Rick, have put together an evocative and emotional trip withContinue reading “Serotones – Nothing’s What It Seems”
Honeyglaze – Female Lead
Anouska Sokolow, lead songwriter of London trio Honeyglaze, tried bleaching her hair to look like the lead character in a film she was watching with unfortunate, Mum shaming, results. Thankfully for us, the lyrical humour it inspired is top notch. ‘Female Lead’ is an astoundingly perfect, laid back, twee indie pop single, possessing the spiritContinue reading “Honeyglaze – Female Lead”
