Interview 🔦🔦 Our Lottie sat down with @theblinders in the midst of their politically charged, ‘For the Many’ tour. When the band visited her place of work, @lepub, ahead of their first Welsh headline show in two years, she knew she had to seize the moment to speak to one of her favourite bands!

.
Feast your eyes on one of our own most insightful interviews yet. With discussions on their decision to dedicate a tour to raise funds for local labour parties, their experience canvassing in Newport, the importance of not just ‘sticking to music’ and much more, it’s not one to miss.

New music 📀📀 ‘Out of Time’ was release by Sheffield based, @floodhounds this Friday. Certified as a ‘no holds barred, 3-chord indie punk thrasher’, the tracks release comes after a successful crowdfunding campaign and its live debut only last week.
.
.
With a ‘strong, impactful introduction’, the new single marks a different sound for the trio, something ‘rawer’ and ‘heavier’. Such ‘deceptively simple’ production is synonymous with the ‘wild righteous chase’ we’re taken on upon listening, focusing on regret and ‘missed decisions’.
.
.
The track comes as the first of two releases produced by Thomas Mitchener, ‘Something Primeval’ coming in February 2020.

New music 📀📀 ‘Tabloid Newspaper’ is the newest single by @hotelluxband. Our Chiara has been waiting for this release since at least last March, and it’s safe to say it hasn’t disappointed, having her convinced they’re ‘one of the most interesting bands making the rounds in the UK at the moment’.
.
.
The track’s release definitely appears to have been aptly timed in the run up to the General Election with tabloids rife with the misrepresentation of fact. The band play no stranger to this, but rather than a ‘political commentary’ serve up a ‘j’accuse about the music industry’ while demonstrating their starkest shift in musical style, ‘the most punk they’ve ever sounded’ but also incorporating alternative rock and Brit pop.

Live review 🎤🎧 Our writer, Megan was lucky enough to join Sheffield based, @floodhounds at @record_junkee , their biggest hometown gig to date where she was treated to not one, not two, but three cracking sets of live music.
.
.
Expertly executing the headline slot was @floodhounds. It’s clear there was great sentiment behind their performance, this mimicked in both the crowd and band’s actions. With a surprise interlude of The Specials’ track, ‘Ghost Town’, the set contained ‘many a highlight’ with fan favourites such as ‘Take it Too Far’, but the band also premiered a couple of newbies, one being, ‘Out of Time’ set for release on the 6th (full review to follow)!
.
.
Getting the crowd going beforehand was @sadlydanband who excellently brought ‘an air of comedy’ to the night’s proceedings. But nonetheless, paired with the front mans bold stage outfit, the band delivered a stunning set, expelling a sense of ‘beautiful chaos’.
.
.
Not to be forgotten is show opener’s @concretearmbands. Despite the scattered crowd, they certainly didn't mimic the dreary weather outside. Instead, ‘the band’s intoxicating energy and fun attitude never showed any sign of halting’.

New music 📀📀 ‘Honest Man’ is the new track by @saytrplay. Filled with ‘pure, nostalgic feelings and a cheeky promise of endless good times ahead’, the band prove they’re not just another Manchester export.
.
.
With the band ‘playing their most direct message’ in the track, it’s really symbolic of both ‘natural audio evolution of both man and music’. But at detriment to this, the track proves near fatal for your heart strings. It’s safe to say the dirty, flirty Saytr Play boys have left our Lauren wondering if it’s possible to take a piece of music home to meet your mum!

Interview 🔦🔦 Following the release of @abandonshipuk ‘s latest single, ‘Say The Word’, we sat down for a chat. We fired ten questions their way on all things from the single and their upcoming EP, ‘Wrong Again’, to their band name, their biggest influences and favourite bands at the moment.
.
.
One of our most talkative ‘quick questions’, we had a real dig around lead singer, Luke’s, brain.

New music 📀📀 ‘Talk Tonight’ is the latest release by @wavechaseband. With a @circawaves -esque energy, the track satisfies your indie needs with brooding lyrics, pining for the chance to talk to an ex lover.
.
.
The track provides a great ‘aha’ moment. Opening with a dial tone, serving a voicemail later on and closing with a hang up, you’re thrown straight into a phone call simulation with ‘the use of skilful production techniques’ making the track both an ‘interesting and entertaining’ listen.
