BEHIND THE MUSIC

HAAL are a fast-rising Bristol quartet. The upcoming EP "Back To Shilmarine," set to be released on May 10th, pays homage to the late-90s/early-00s era with a mix of caustic yet melodic tracks. Featuring a blend of esoteric samples, DIY pedal-filtered instrumentation, totemic riffing, warped synths, motoric rhythms, and powerful vocals, the EP promises moments of both noise and power.

Meet the Iggy Pop-approved Italian quintet Leatherette

Contemporary Irish folk music group The Mary Wallopers have just released their sophomore album "Irish Rock ’n’ Roll" and are now taking traditional ballads and, for the first time, their own songs on the road for their biggest tour to date.

One week after the release of their much-anticipated debut album, 'Unum,' we talked with guitarist Janelle Borg and bassist Leanne Zammit about hard work, being reviewed by Pitchfork, and an unforgettable night.

Having previously released 3 critically acclaimed EPs between 2020 and 2022, Jana Bahrich is shifting her sound from angst filled alt-rock, to a more vulnerable and open sonic palette, embracing pop alongside rock to create Gen-Z anthems which celebrate the beautiful things of the world.

KILL, THE ICON! is the synth-punk project from London-based NHS doctor Nishant Joshi.

Hailing from Southend, Essex, but currently based in South-West London, the 21-year old singer-songwriter has been writing songs since the age of 13. His debut album, ‘I May Need Some Silence’, is due this Friday.

Although the Long Island quintet have roots in post-punk, their high-energy genre bending compositions defy easy classification.

Their music is a combination of influences ranging from 70s punk music and aesthetics, surrealist art and absurdist film paired with individual inspirations. Meet Irish five-piece Slightly Dishevelled.

Offering a contemporary take on Australian post-punk, along with elements of experimental jazz and electronic music, dust have curated a sound that is as dark, introspective, and angular as it is powerful and progressive.
