  • Toothbrush – “Kaleidoscope”

    Toothbrush – “Kaleidoscope”

    What makes this track unique is its originality and an almost obscene vibe of alcohol, cigarettes, and cynicism. With drunken steps, the track moves forward with a rock and roll vibe and a low end that makes the ground shake. Its attitude can be compared to a full pub at 3am where everybody is loosened…

  • Blind Season – Wine & Hair Dye

    Blind Season – Wine & Hair Dye

    “The particular ethos of the album is that i look at each song as sort of a diary entry/chapter. At the time that i was making it i wasn’t leaving the house much and staying in a dark room creating these songs because i had nothing else to do. The band was essentially over so…

  • Denni Ian “Two Figures”

    Denni Ian “Two Figures”

    “I wrote the lyrics for” Two Figures “in the summer of 2020 while being hospitalized at a local psych ward. Close to an all-time low, I had lost my mind, felt existentially exhausted, and alone.” Denni Ian

  • Burn Like Stars – “Strange Comfort”

    Burn Like Stars – “Strange Comfort”

    “This song was inspired off of a relationship I had with someone. We had a big falling out and instead of working on the relationship she ended up getting close to a childhood love. She knew he was a bad person with bad habits and swore she wasn’t gonna let it get deep but she…

  • Vanderwolf “When The Fire Grows Cold”/”Extinction!”

    Vanderwolf “When The Fire Grows Cold”/”Extinction!”

    “I had produced a tribute to Wyatt in NYC many years ago. Fred Frith, Peter Blegvad, Hugh Hopper and many others appeared. Robert gave it his official nod of support. When I moved to London to produce my first Meltdown Festival, Robert seemed the obvious choice to curate it, and from that, a lovely friendship…

  • Anne Bennett “Fabulous Creature”

    Anne Bennett “Fabulous Creature”

    It’s the haunting and all-encompassing flow of mystic passion Anne Bennett has tamed, just a little bit, making her songs so captivating and inviting for repeated journeys. Holding the listeners on tiptoes, the dark magic-filled worlds full of powerful messages are waiting. May it be the highly relevant and empowering celebration of “Fabulous Creature” or…

  • The Lowtones – Front Row Empty

    The Lowtones – Front Row Empty

    All the tracks were written during the height of the pandemic and I think the uncertainty, anxiety, and isolation of the time comes through in the music. Mav had recently come out of a long-term relationship as well as moving back to Norfolk from Brighton, so a lot of the lyrical themes are of reflection…

  • Catherine Elms “Frustrations”

    Catherine Elms “Frustrations”

    “My songs are dark, fierce, introspective – written from my experiences as a queer woman, a feminist, a person with mental illness, and an introverted indie musician. I write about fighting to improve a world that wasn’t built for us, losing (and re-finding) yourself in toxic love, being a messy weirdo in an industry that…

  • YUTZI – “GIVE ME THE BLAME”

    YUTZI – “GIVE ME THE BLAME”

    The single is a bit sad lyrically speaking. It boards the theme of having to leave somebody behind to pursue your own dreams. In this case, songwriter/lead-singer Tom Starr wrote the song trying to convey the difficulties of leaving his partner to become a successful touring musician.

  • Higher Sights – “Turn The Screw”

    Higher Sights – “Turn The Screw”

    “Turn The Screw is very much about media mind control, and the dangers that presents to our mental health as we are far too often vulnerable to manipulation at the behest of the puppet masters. They can generate panic, fear, hate and adulation with a creatively worded or edited headline. The words simply encourage you…

  • TROLN – “SAYS ABRAHAM”

    TROLN – “SAYS ABRAHAM”

    ‘Says Abraham’ is song about devotion to a god or a spiritual leader–but not necessarily in a good way. […] Many are looking for something or someone to believe in. Someone to follow. Someone to tell us what to do and to whom we can direct our dreams and longing. In the hope that someone…

  • Poison Oak “Hope You Like The View”

    Poison Oak “Hope You Like The View”

    “Hope You Like The View” is Poison Oak’s third single from their upcoming EP, The View From Here. The song explores the themes of choices, and sometimes how someone’s unexpected choices can affect the people they’re close to.
