Seablite – Hit The Wall
Let me start by saying right off the bat that I’m not sure there’s a band out there right now as cool as San Francisco indie four-piece Seablite. It’s incredibly exciting when the songs, sound, vision and style all come together as they have in the lead up to new album Lemon Lights. After theContinue reading “Seablite – Hit The Wall”
Apostille – Prisoners Of Love And Hate
An outlier with a deep knowledge of pop in all its forms and the unrivalled power it holds, Glasgow based Michael Kasparis’ Apostille project is back with third album Prisoners Of Love And Hate, and it’s his most deeply focussed and affecting effort to date. From the opening Whigfield (!) inspired house pulse of SaturdayContinue reading “Apostille – Prisoners Of Love And Hate”

Seablite – Pot Of Boiling Water
In the bubble of underground indieland it feels as if San Francisco four piece Seablite are everywhere at the moment. Their hypnotic blend of shoegaze cool and indiepop vibrance has been capturing hearts and minds since new album Lemon Lights was announced, and I’m the latest person rendered powerless to resist. On latest cut PotContinue reading “Seablite – Pot Of Boiling Water”
Empty Country – Erlking
‘The end times end, we all sing along, one short verse thirteen bars, the force of fifty collapsing stars…’ I have to be honest. It’s been a fair while since I last heard a chorus that instantaneously made me want to set stuff on fire. Welcome back then Empty Country, whose new cut Erlking hasContinue reading “Empty Country – Erlking”
Rat Columns – Cerulean Blue
David West’s Jolly In The Bush seemed to largely slip through the cracks after its release early last year, which was a real shame as it’s gloriously off-kilter electronic pop was amongst the finest and deepest of the year. In addition to various other fingers in various other pies, West also fronts Perth based collectiveContinue reading “Rat Columns – Cerulean Blue”
Yes Today – 2022 Demos
After capturing audiences across this year with their unique nocturnal psychfolk wanderings, Southend based collective Yes Today have now given a full release to their first recorded works, 2022 Demos. Recorded prior to Roy Thirlwall (Melodiegroup/The Windmills) joining the group on bass, these six beautifully sparse arrangements feature the core trio of Amy Glover, AmyContinue reading “Yes Today – 2022 Demos”
Red Pants – Witching Hour
Anything new from the beautifully creative mind of Jason Lambeth is cause for celebration, but news of his first vinyl release courtesy of the wonderful Madrid based label Meritorio Records is truly next level stuff. Red Pants is Lambeth’s collaboration with fellow Madison, Wisconsin based artist Elsa Nekola, and the duo have just released WitchingContinue reading “Red Pants – Witching Hour”
Blue Ocean – Fertile State
Following on from their early limited EP tape releases and subsequent self-titled compilation for Paisley Shirt Records (tape) and Dandy Boy Records (vinyl) back in 2021, Oakland noise-pop trio Blue Ocean have returned with news of their first long player. Fertile State is the lead single and title track from the bands debut album comingContinue reading “Blue Ocean – Fertile State”
