SCHØØL – French Shoegaze Indies With Britpop Swagger Have Their Debut Album Out In September

26 June 2025

Band: SCHØØL
Who: Conceived in Paris in the fall of 2023. They united
to form the band they dreamed of as teenagers, inspired
by 90s shoegaze bands.

Album: I THINK MY LIFE HAS BEEN OK
Their debut. It will be launched on September 5th
via Géographie. Pre-order here.

Ahead of its release, the band have shared 3 tasters/singles. They produce a peppy
mix of Britpop swagger (The Charlatans, The Stone Roses), shoegaze (Swirlies, Drop Nineteens, Catherine Wheel) and slacker rock (Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh). Actually all you need to start
a 24-hour rave party.

Band: CARDINALS
Who: Indie rock 4-piece
from York, Ireland.

Track: GET IT

Euan Manning (frontman) “To me, it’s a song about reflection, looking
at what went wrong but also at what went right. The worst and the best.
Its climax crowns love as an overwhelmingly positive force, whichever type
of love that may be. It’s a change of pace for us and definitely feels like
a bridging moment for what’s to come next.”

Guitar pop at its uplifting best.
A tantalizing, play on repeat tune.
Is that an accordion I hear midway?
Totally cool.

Linktree

Band: INCA BABIES
Who: Post-punk death-rock
trio from Manchester, UK.

Track: SPACEWALK
Piece from their upcoming, 9th album, named
Ghost Mechanic Nine. Out November 29.


New album artwork

Rockabilly with a psychobilly twist.
Catchy as hell. Amps up. Decibels up.

All you black-leather-jacket babies
out there, time to rock the cradle.
