Band: VIRGINS
Who: Belfast-based shoegaze band who transcend that reductive tag to deliver a noise which is thrillingly loud and weightily light. Last year they released their notable debut album nothing hurt and everything was beautiful.
Track: BLOOMS
Heavenly melodiousness, edged layers of shoegazing guitars, forceful
drumming, crystalline vocals, and a non-stop bass riff pushing the pace
throughout combine for a breathtaking score.

Band: REAL BEAUT
Who: Rackety rockers
from Boston.
Track: POLITICS ON THE INTERNET
Piece from their new 4-track EP, named
Politics. Stream/buy here.
“‘Politics on the Internet’ is about caring for yourself enough not to engage in the beast battle all the time. You can talk to your brothers, parents, and friends. There are minds you can change in this world if you disagree with them, but some dope on the other end of a keyboard isn’t going to open their mind because of the intelligent quip you made on the socials. Prioritize your family and fight locally. Flinging verbal excrement at a screen isn’t the way. Love yourself, love others. Love, sex, being strong through kindness, the weight of political turmoil and technology on what is human in humanity.”
Holy fuck. This guitar-pyrotechnics juggernaut
has a knockout vehemence that floors you in
150 seconds. To hell with shitty politics on the
Internet, Real Beaut are the real riff-raging
deal.
Band: THE SONIC REDEMPTION
Who: Belgian raging rock’n’roll preachers
spreading the gospel of raw, high-octane
music.
Track: PISSING CONTENT
From their new 6-track EP, named
Preaching To The Wasteland.
Stream here.
Prepare your ears for a spasmodic sucker-punch.
Paranoid guitars, badass bass/drums, stressed vocals.
All ingredients you need for a sonic molotov cocktail.

Artist: FIR CONE CHILDREN
Who: The musical moniker of
Berlin-based indie Alexander Donat.
Track:YOUR VOICE
From the get-go Donat takes you on a head-rotating and power-driven ride.
No brakes, no breakes. Always pedal to the metal. Raise your voice and absorb
this flat-out ripper. Bingo.
