A mate described Dog is Dead as “Mystery Jets meets yacht rock”, and I think he may be right. This is a massive track that’s paired with an excellent video, perfect for summer fun. Their third single “Glockenspiel Song” is out from 23 July, while their debut album All Our Favourite Stories releases this autumn […]

For many of us, The Great Escape is the first thing that comes mind when discussing Brighton and Hove, but that’s not entirely fair to all of the quality bands who call East Sussex home. Whilst Lovepark hail from Burgess Hill in West Sussex, they’re not too far from the seaside and the town we […]

I can’t really be arsed to hunt down band biographical information anymore. Not sure if it’s the hip thing to not provide on one’s webpage, but it’s generally impossible to find for many bands anymore. Alas, this will be a short post. Local lads Eagulls play rough-edged garage/punk, and have quickly risen to the top […]

Whilst I think AlunaGeorge may be a little too hip and polished for me, I’m not afraid to admit that everything I’ve heard from them is well good. Their EP You Know You Like It is available now on iTunes and as a 12″ via TriAngle Records. It’s feels nice to step out of my […]

It’s been almost five years since London group Exlovers formed. Bands have formed, released albums, broken up, and then splintered off into other groups. In the world of music, five years is quite a long time. Whilst this may seem a little strange to some of us, perhaps the band is on to something. It’s […]

Camp My Tiger My Timing has been quite busy in 2012. In between gigs in England and Germany, they’ve been working hard on new music, both their fifth single and debut album. Whilst it seems like only yesterday when we first heard their early demos, time really does move quickly when you’re enjoying yourself. Single […]

It’s been a few years since the whirlwind surrounding the early days of Chew Lips. Whilst it may have been merely my perception, it seems like they were everywhere in 2009. “Solo” was a track that I couldn’t escape, and at first, I was more than happy to incessantly bathe my ears with its rhythms. […]

There are many positives to living alone. No rubbish from others to tidy, never having a row with anyone over how often his/her significant other is staying in the flat, and perhaps most importantly, getting to listen to what I want, when I want, and at the volume of my choosing. And this Sunday has […]

This 22 July brings us the third release from Nottingham band Dog Is Dead, the new single “Glockenspiel Song”. It will feature on their debut album, All Our Favourite Stories, which will release this autumn on Atlantic. We’re rather excited for this one, as they have mastered the skill of turning pop music into strange […]

London/Brighton group Fear of Men are back with a new single, out from 18 June. It’s called “Green Sea” and the 7″ will be available via Sexbeat, limited to a run of 300 on white vinyl. There’s still time to preorder here. You may recall us hyping them some time ago, as we’ve been especially […]
