The 1975 – I Like It When You Sleep For You Are Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It
Unless you’ve being living under a rock for the last three or four years, you will recognise The 1975 as being the band that, asides from the Arctic Monkeys, have shown British guitar music can go global on a stratospheric level. Their debut album rocketed straight to number one…
Steve Mason – Meet the Humans
Now based in Brighton, and away from the isolation of living in the woods of Fife for long periods, the former Beta Band founder appears to have found a peace of sorts, albeit one wrapped up in a call to arms, largely to himself, as he details his fight against…
Day III: Brighton Noise All-Dayer – 2016
This was a real long-haul, eight hours solid of Brighton Noise’s best picks from across the city. They were plagued by last-minute cancellations and replacements, but they didn’t disappoint: most of the attendees only showed for a few hours, but any who went the whole nine yards and stayed…
The Coral – Distance Inbetween
With its thicker than an oil slick guitar riff, The Coral’s ‘Chasing The Tail Of A Dream’ was the first fresh breath we have heard from the band in over six years, asides from the rehashing of The Curse Of Love – what later became their 7th album. ‘Chasing…
Animal Collective – Painting With
Animal Collective’s music, but also Animal Collective as an entity, has always been about play. But its regression to a more simple, child-like state is also a form of subversion against an increasingly globalised and commoditised dreariness of modern existence. Animal Collective don’t just want you to see how…
Rosie Lowe – Control
The London-based, Devon-born musician Rosie Lowe has emerged as one of the most hotly tipped artists around. With just a handful of tracks made available so far, all eyes are on Control, her debut album. And few will be disappointed, for she incontrovertibly shows what a talent she is,…
Wild Nothing – Life of Pause
As far as personal projects go, they don’t get more personal than Jack Tatum’s work under his Wild Nothing guise. The music featured on his 2010 debut Gemini was never intended for anyone’s ears other than his own and the project only developed into an actual band once internet…
Yuck – Stranger Things
Yuck – Stranger Things Yuck, do you remember them guys from Portland, Oregon that emerged in 2011? They once had a fantastic hit with ‘Get Away’ that brought everyone lulling back to the 1990’s US alt-rock scene, merging everything from Pavement to Sonic Youth with their shoegaze…
Sunflower Bean – Human Ceremony
Hype can be a useful, but also very dangerous thing for a young new band. It can stroke egos, build complacency and produce disappointment if their releases don’t live up to all the hyperbole. Luckily Sunflower Bean have navigated all the craziness with astounding focus and maturity for their…
