“Bonkers, bloopy, and delivered at a near-lightspeed pace, Glitch Kingdom’s second track adds to the promise of their debut. Intricate yet chaotic, there’s three or four songs crammed into its mere two-minute blast, energising, tightly wired, and brilliantly mad 🏎️”
“A fizzy swirl of shoegazey guitars cocoon you from the off on Bridge Dog’s latest, crystal-cut melodies soaring above a darker landscape. A misty, out-of-focus gem of a track đź’Ž”
“Good Ramen drop a set tonight worthy of the ages, a ferocious-but-friendly grab bag of songs that by turns soar and sear, Sonic Youth and Superchunk and Pavement and Hockey Dad and… oh fuck it, a bunch of your favourite bands.
