“Good Lekker bloop and stomp their way through a relentlessly danceable set that’s as equally likely to fire the neurons as spark the dancing nerve. It’s the sense of triumph that gets you though, the way they make the air in the room seem like a massive win.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram | […]

Stunt Double @ The Royal, 13th Apr

“Stunt Double play with notable restraint, the keyboards floating like echoes of Eels and the undertows sounding like a quiet heist, the songs moving with utterly unhurried purpose.

The whole thing pounds and drives at the same time as it soars and soothes […]

GRXCE @ Wayward’s, 9th Apr

“It’s like you can’t move without running into a GRXCE show right now, which is – precisely – zero percent of a bad thing. Having emerged out of the traps at top speed, they’re putting in all the work and we’re getting all the benefits. There’s enough spring in the step of these songs to […]

DZ Deathrays – Tuff Luck

“Channelling – of all things! – 90s UK grebo, DZ Deathrays drop one of their very best in ‘Tuff Luck’. With as much bounce as beast, and as much groove as guitar, it’s a wide-eyed trip both backwards and forwards 😵‍💫”
