Band: SLOW READERS CLUB
Who: Who: Alt-pop rockers
from Manchester, UK.

Track: ANIMALS
Taster from their 7th album, titled Out Of A Dream.
Slated for launch on 14 March 2025.

“‘Animals’ is us doing full on euphoric guitar pop, full of energy and drama.
It’s a celebration of intense, all-consuming primal love. Infatuation as a magic spell.
It’s about a longing for togetherness and sanctuary, as an escape from the bleak
reality of the outside world.”

Afire and ablaze power pop bliss.

Artist: GHOST ON TV
Who: Musical project started by Boston multi-instrumentalist
and songwriter Paul DePasquale during the pandemic. He released
two records in late 2020.

Track: DAILY LAWS
First shared piece of upcoming, new album
‘Mister Silence’, ready to roll out, early next year.

“‘Daily Laws’ is about the art of negotiation with yourself and others. We always need to make sacrifices in life when dealing with other people, but it’s important to make negotiations with yourself. Know when to be kind and compassionate and know when to be unapologetic when being or doing what is best for yourself.”

A bass-booming trip-hop trip
that hypnotizes and mesmerizes.
Feverish vocals. Intriguing tune.

Band: PANHEAD SHARPS
Who: Indies from Dunfermline, Scotland.

Track: WHEN YOU ARE FALLING
A song that speaks to those moments of struggle and resilience.
With haunting lyrics like “When you are falling, I will be there when
you hit the ground” It’s a beautiful reminder that we’re not alone
in our toughest times.

Empathetic emotions bottled up in a bass-pushing
mid-tempo grungy blues-rock burst stoked with
fanatical guitars and compulsive vocals.

Track: PAUSE AT YOU
First preview from ‘Lust for Life, Or: ‘How To Thread The Needle And Come
Out The Other Side To Tell The Story’ (yep, that’s the full title), their 3rd LP, out
14th of March.

“‘Pause At You’ is a culmination of everything we’ve been working on over the last
few years. An observation on night time paranoia mixed about with night out ecstasy.
Light outing, floor filling, tie undressing, rock.”

Hefty, robust, electrical.
