Band: SNOOZER
Who: Alt outfit from Philly formed by brothers Mike and
Tom Kelly from Philly. Last year they launched their 3rd LP
Mid-Earth

Track: I DON’T WANT TO TALK TO YOU

This sonically two-faced roller coaster starts smoothly and funkadelic
until aggressive guitars take over and get in your face. Then the mood
swings process starts all over again. Somebody is grumpy here.

Band: SPORTS TEAM
Who: London-based group,
active since 2016.

Track: MAYBE WHEN WE WERE 30
Single from their forthcoming 3rd LP
Boys These Days, out on 23rd May.

“One morning you look around, and all your friends are getting married, and you think,
maybe all I really want is to grow old, and get a dog, and write horrible things about Brooklyn Beckham on Facebook, and go on cruises, and have petty disputes with my neighbours about whether the council recycles cardboard.”

Gloriously affecting and steadily boogielicious
with musing duet vocals all over it until
sinewy guitars, slowly but surely, augment
the intensity of this witty mixed emotions
tune.

Band: VIVE LA FÊTE
Who: Seasoned Belgian synth
kitsch pop duo with 9 albums
on their résumé.

Track: NOTRE PLANETE
Song about the terrible
state of our planet.

Lively and catchy as ever but with an alerting message.
Skittish synths, riff-crazy guitars and Els Pynoo‘ both seductive
and worried vocals create une ambiance nerveuse. Stop messing
up Mother Earth, people

Act: DICE MACHINE
Who: Electronic musician Drew Five, part of
London-based duo Feral Five and his friend,
fashion photographer Michael Daks.

Track: DICE MACHINE
First collaboration which leans heavily into indie rock. The music is also
shaped by a wide range of influences, making them sound both familiar
and refreshingly unpredictable.

Guitar-electrifying dance groove.
juiced with repetitive, pounding
bass/drum beats and edgy vocals.
Infectious, campy and big fun.

Roll the little stones here.

Track: HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Piece from their forthcoming 3rd album,

Sounds like a cheery chant for a modern-day musical.
