Stunning, in short – a defiant highlight from the year so far, rooted amidst some legendary sounds but more firmly connected to the clear identity and artistic intention of the band.
Music
Uniquely-named and equally unique in craftsmanship – garden on a trampoline delve into the weight of mental-health issues with a powerfully introspective yet musically diverse new album.
Blissfully calming to delve into, uniquely interesting, a hypnotic loop of contemplation and inner peace.
Marsh utilises profoundly intelligent bars, complex poetry & observations that feel genuinely new & appear to roam the very edges of hardship in the all but forgotten corners of society.
Summer vibes in strong supply, hints of jazz and an altogether colourful and easy-going mood – the release quickly invites interest in the GO MERUS catalogue.
Jamie Dunphy and True North blend poetry and reflective self-awareness with beautiful melodies, great riffs, and the natural comfort of organic soft-rock.
Blending Homeboy Sandman collectedness & calm with a certain organic pop simplicity reminiscent of Just Jack or similar alt-pop artists from eras past.
A brilliant vocalist, with a handful of engaging tracks already on the scene. Well worth exploring.
Retro-alternative dance vibes meet with creative structuring for this nostalgic yet spacious electro-pop single from the H2SO4 headquarters.
Musically immersive and somewhat distracting initially for its weight and multi-layered production, Getaway Car conceptually tackles the broadly consuming issue that is mental illness in contemporary society.
An aptly detailed, softly cinematic acoustic breeze washes through to light up a beautifully melodic folk-pop single from MAKELOVE.
Beautiful, a fitting, cinematic outro to a story that seemed hopeless but soon revealed itself to be loaded with possibility and lessons.
