Cut Your Hair – Mad Love Now this is possibly the strangest but catchiest song I’ve heard for a while. Opening with the lyrics “Raveee…” does make me think “what is this”? But I’m soon over that when I hear the wonderfully soothing guitar strings combine with the melodic piano riffs and vocals that may remind you of something from the 90’s . At first I assumed this was a generic indie pop band from…
Small artists to see at Live at Leeds Festival 2013
Not sure who to see? Here a few artists to check out on the Saturday of Live at Leeds Festival! Man Like Me Do you remember that quirky IKEA advert that went on about parties in kitchens? Well, you may recognise these guys and their vocals from precisely that. Man Like Me are a North London trio of absolutely wacky music and although it sounds like they can’t really be bothered, their mix of…
TRACK REVIEW: Earl Sweatshirt – WHOA
Earl SweatshirtOFWGKTA. Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All. A name that has been all over the internet for a few years now, with their numerous members, different albums, crazy live shows and now a clothing brand? Safe to say that Odd Future are definitely at the top of their game at the moment. Tyler, The Creator, the groups front man has had a successful career already. With two albums and a third set to…
New and upcoming artist – The 1975
Origin: Manchester, England The 1975 were one of the best new bands of 2012, and are now certainly ones to watch for 2013! The boys create a blend of British indie and alternative rock, and do it very well. Being from Manchester, like many other bands, you’d already expect them to be quite similar to other acts, however this band are able to be distinguished and cut out from all the rest – genre is…
New and upcoming artist – Disclosure
Origin: Surrey, England Disclosure are the British duo of brothers, Howard and Guy Lawrence and are definitely the one to look out for in 2013. With a mix of warm synth, deep bass and fast tapped beats, the guys recreate a vibe of future/house/garage music, but it’s definitely not something I’ve heard before. They are possibly the youngest and fastest rising DJ’s at the ages of 21 and 18 but damn, they’re good at it!…
ANNA – The Courteeners
They’re back with a third album and it’s all guitar riffs, synths, and rhyming lyrics! But what’s so different about it to the rest? Well it is quite a different approach by the boys; compared to the 2008 debut St Jude and 2010 album Falcon. Being cut from the same cloth, I guess you won’t be surprised to hear it as a combination of the style of these two albums. The album opens with a…
Mosquito: Yeah Yeah Yeahs come back with a bite
Since their third studio effort It’s Blitz (2009), gutsy New York threesome Yeah Yeah Yeahs have remained all-too-quiet on the music scene. The four-year silence was broken, however, when the group announced the drop date of its fourth album, dubbed Mosquito (yes, for the insect), two weeks ago on their site. The YYYs have also pledged to play a slough of new dates, including the two weekends of Coachella. When asked about the record, which has been in-the-works since…
