“Rumbly and blurred at the edges, this is a charming slice of driving and dreamy fun, so laid-back it arrives horizontally. It’s smart though too – there’s a steely glint in those sleepy eyes 😵💫”

DIVEBAR YOUTH – VERTEBRAE
“There’s something hypnotic about Divebar Youth’s new track, something that tricks the brain into losing track of things while it stomps and sprawls all over the room. It catches your eye easily, but all of a sudden you realise you haven’t blinked for a really long time 👁️”

West Thebarton @ The Lansdowne, 19th May
