Admittedly written about his ‘Nanna’, the genuine and delicate track […]

After the release of their debut EP Morrow earlier this year, they have now released a brand new single, Other Dudes. The trio is made up by producers Beau Cummins, Josh Jones and Mitchell Gene delivering vocals.

New Single: KLP ‘Medicine’

Flitting and skirting around the main hook ‘won’t you take a bit of my love’; KLP’s disarming vocals prove a perfect accompaniment to the flickering electronica. The track itself seems raw – although the playful synth adds some weight, the […]

New Single: Doc Holliday Takes The Shotgun ‘King of the Moon’

What doesn’t the video clip for Doc Holliday Takes The Shotgun’s new single have? James Bond-esque beginning? Check. Elvis inspired opening vocals? Check. A colour scheme so psychedelic that it makes to you wonder whether someone slipped something into your drink? Most certainly.

Single Review: Mono, ‘Recoil, Ignite’

Holy hell. I did not see this coming. Japanese postrockers Mono have unveiled the second single from forthcoming album Rays of Darkness, one of two companion albums, alongside The Last Dawn.
