Alt Rock
Slick rhythms and classic rock guitars kick off the crisp yet nostalgic embrace of this new EP from imaginative songwriters The Lost Millions.
A collection of compositions blending disparate cultures and genres, with the alternative and progressive rock genres that influenced much of David’s past musical ventures.
An impressively versatile EP – vocally definitive, recognisable, poetic and thought-provoking, heartfelt and musically fresh yet nostalgic all at once.
A rock project that introduces itself in a deeply-personal yet bold and immersive fashion, and that balance is quick to lure you in.
Individuality as a band can be hard to achieve – particularly without sacrificing strength of songwriting, authenticity of topic, or skilful musicianship. Enter Petty Human Emotions, a contemporary punk-rock act with a fine fusion of elements to their style.
The lightness of indie shoegaze is quickly elevated by passionate and bold vocals, soon evolving into a wholly unexpected hard-rock realm as that passion rises further still – Torch The Hive provide the essential escapism we need right now.
Rather than actually being the decade compilation it often sounds like, this album from multi-instrumentalist R John Webb is a consistently unpredictable, modern solo record, and proves ultimately refreshing and fascinating of its own accord.
The song gathers momentum with grace and precision, evolving through the ferocity of hard-rock during its central section, with fast-paced guitars and drums colliding to bring us into another creative shift; that of a mildly psychedelic overtone.
Introducing a musical project as eclectic, chaotic and colourful as its artwork – Campfire Sigh confront modern life and all of its quirks, with a series of imagery-heavy stories and sentiments, for Different Peninsulas.
Creatively unpredictable, imaginative and perhaps undefinable in the same instance – Ten Years Without Rami Holding depicts an array of stories relating to a photographer’s long-awaited return to Cheap City.
Captivating listeners with a supreme balance of finely-honed musicianship and outright creative expression – the UK’s own Kanoo set the mood beautifully, with the instrumental rock album Deleted Years.
