Lipstereo – Rabbit Hole

Tight as a coiled spring, Lipstereo’s high-tension guitars propel their latest track along on a fizzing wave of crackle and hum, paranoid but happy. Dizzying and unrelentingly energetic, this is another attention-grabbing track from a band picking up more and more momentum 🏎️”

Teenage Dads – Tale Of A Man

“Teenage Dads epic restraint shines bright on their latest, teeny tiny flourishes and itty bitty beats crackling in the air like fireflies. Equal parts sharp tailoring and louche scruffbaggery, it’d be equally at home strolling on the Riviera or crawling out of a bar while dawn breaks 👔“

Adam Newling – Us and Them

“Released along with the rest of the excellent ‘Dorothy Painted Portraits’ album, ‘Us & Them’ heals with its calm, a soothing draft to mend broken sprits. Like the rest of the tracks here, it’s born in the dust but it ends up soaring like a newly-freed bird 🕊️”

Yorke Heath & Sacredd – Summer Rain

“On paper it’s an unlikely pairing, but on record the collision between Yorke Heath’s folk-tinged, poppy indie-folk and Sacredd’s brick-solid bars is a glorious cocktail. Smooth as you like but stronger than you realise, it’s one you’ll knock back again and again 🍸”

C.O.F.F.I.N @ Label, 2nd Dec

“C.O.F.F.I.N have come back home to Brookvale tonight and hell, it *feels* like home with this cheerfully insane crowd – most of whom may have known most of the band since they were knee-high. The band seem delighted too – whether that’s because they know full well they’ve put out one of the undisputed albums […]

Stiff Richards @ Label, 2nd Dec

“Stiff Richards repeat straightforward ideas and phrases, at volume and at pace, until they’re a structural part of your brain. Keep it simple, keep it loud as hell, and give it everything you have – do that and we’ll give it all right back, with interest, and with ferocious joy.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

Robber @ Label, 2nd Dec

“Robber’s hardcore is blazing fast and then considered; discordant rage then focussed aggression. The mental and physical rewards are all right there, assuming you can keep up.” Gallery Learn More Instagram
