Track: OOFJ release the ethereal electro-indie of I Forgive You
Listening to OOFJ makes me want to slip into a silk paisley dressing gown, light up a pipe and watch some burlesque. And in this, ‘I Forgive You’, the third single from this eclectic duo, they introduce a sense of epic foreboding into the sensuous delight, accentuated by a prowling, insistent bass drone that installs a …
See: Halestorm release new visuals for Apocalyptic
With the band’s third studio album ‘Into The Wild Life’ coming in April, Halestorm have recently released the video for the first single from their forthcoming album. ‘Apocalyptic’ is a simple but effective video not only showing their capabilities as a live act but also their personalities for a striking and energetic video. Frontwomen Lzzy …
Track: C Duncan – Say
Last time we heard from C Duncan, it was when our interest was peeked when we heard his track ‘For’. Now the Glasgow song-songwriter is back with a new single, ‘Say’ taken from his forthcoming debut album, due out this Summer. As with its predecessor, it was lovingly recorded at home by C Duncan, who …
Track: Shelter Point – Fossil
Current dreamy, electronica favourites Shelter Point are back with a new track, Fossil, taken from their forthcoming EP Weird Dreamers, which drops on February 23rd via RCA sub label Space + Time. Taking the lead from the likes of Boards of Canada and Mount Kimbie, the band add these soulful vocals making something that’s completely …
Track: Stornaway – The Road You Didn’t Take
Oxford indie folk band Stornoway are back with a third, as yet untitled album, due out on April 13th. Searching for new ideas and with the lyrical cupboard (that is, his notebook) bare, songwriter and frontman Dr. Brian Briggsford took his family and upped sticks for the Gower Pennisula in Wales, perhaps (and I’m relying …
Track: KIT – No Mercy
New York rockers KIT is actually the brainchild of former Scapegoat front man Kit Walters, who, apart from fronting prog metal bands, also was the featured vocalist for the Metal Gear Rising: Revengance video game. Whereas their previous EP Through the Fire showed the band at their electro-infused best, their new single ‘No Mercy’ is …
Track: Soak – Sea Creatures
We’ve written about teenage Irish singer-songwriter Bridie Monds-Watson before in glowing terms, but upon listening to her new single, ‘Sea Creatures’, which drops on March 16th via Rough Trade, she’s upped her game again in producing a song which is startling in its beauty and astonishing in its lyrical wordplay. And trust us, there’s no …
EP: Dorsia – Bygones
London production duo Dorsia kick off the new year with their second release, out through the Chasing Unicorns label on February 2nd. It follows on from their debut single Ghana which came out on LOFT records last spring and earned them support from the likes of Bicep, Tensnake, Jaques Renault and The Magician. Title track …
Track: Twilight Sad – I could give you all that you don’t want, plus tour dates
Taken from their latest, fourth album Nobody Wants To Be Here and Nobody Wants To Leave, is the new single from Scottish grunge / shoe gazers The Twilight Sad. ‘I Could Give You All That You Don’t Want’ was one of the stand out tracks on the record anyway, and it drops on February 9th …
Track: Mercury nominee’s Young Fathers release new single, Soon Come Soon
When this year’s Mercury nominations were announced, I don’t think anybody would have picked Young Fathers out as the winner. But that’s the beauty of the Mercurys. They don’t always pick the obvious choice, and often go for something a little more innovative and leftfield. But win they did with album ‘DEAD’. It brought the …
