Track Of The Day – Coves – ‘Beatings’

Track Of The Day – Etches – “Let’s Move In”
Liverpool based bands that don’t sound like Liverpool based bands are quite possibly our favourite type of Liverpool based band. Etches are five individuals who apparently hail from different corners of England and our initial
Track Of The Day – Lois And The Love- ‘War’
Fuck nostalgia. We generally don’t listen to music from the past to be taken back to a particular place in time, we listen because it’s still relevant to us now. ‘Psychocandy’ for example still sounds
Video Of The Day – PINS – ‘Girls Like Us’
Here’s the latest track to be unveiled by PINS, it’s the title track from their upcoming Bella Union debut album ‘Girls Like Us’ which is already garnering favourable reviews with good reason. The video is
Songs To Learn And Sing – TELEGRAM, Dark Furs and Johnathan Rice

Track Of The Day – Coves – ‘Duchess’ – Première
Today’s track of the day is an exclusive première from one of our favourite bands Coves. The duo of John Ridgard and Bec Wood have been quiet of late in terms of releases, but we are
Track Of The Day Wolf Alice – ‘Blush’
John Peel upon being confronted with a verbose, flowery, extremely long-winded and spirit crushingly dull press release sighed and said…‘sometimes, y’know you just wanna hear the music.’ And that’s exactly the kind of mood we
Tracks Of The Day – Dog Party – ‘Jet Pack’ – ‘The World is Not A Game’
Two sisters and two instruments equals a fantastic third album from Sacramento based punk pop teenagers Dog Party. Three albums from a band whose collective age is just over 30 represents an impressive musical CV
Track Of The Day – Lewis Idle – ‘Hair And Perfume’
Well to be honest we don’t know much about Lewis Idle, there seems to be a paucity of information on-line other than a brief introduction on soundcloud. He’s described as ” a balladeer of uncertain
