See: The Lonely Together release video for Congregation
Maybe it’s The Lonely Togethers Scottish roots, but there’s something of both the Biffy Clyro and Snow Patrol about them. A mixture of the anthemic and the emotional, if you like. It wrapped up in swathes of guitars and atmospheric backing vocals, aiming to, according to the band themselves “carve(ing) a mysterious path through love …
See: The Spook School release video for “Binary”, announce November Headline Tour
Edinburgh quartet The Spook School not only have one of the best names around at the moment – it could, after all, be some kind of 70s cartoon rather than the Glasgow modern artists of the victorian age it (presumably) references, but they also make joyously DIY pop-punk. They’ve just released a new album, Try …

See: Drenge release new video for “The Woods”
Drenge put out a new video for “The Woods” from their second LP Undertow – and its every bit as idiosyncratic as ever. Shot on 16mm at Hope Valley Cement Works, it’s brilliantly of Drenge’s own uniquely dark and strange style, blending Wes Anderson oddness (Eoin standing awkwardly in his yellow parka almost exactly like Bob Balaban and …
See: Victories At Sea release new visuals for Sirens
Some say that you become your surroundings. Surround yourself with simple, pleasant things and you’ll have a simple pleasant life. That’s the theory anyway.
