ARTIST: SYLLO
TRACK: Not in the Mood
‘Not in the Mood’ by Liverpool-based SYLLO, is an anthemic alternative pop-rock track, with over-the-top production (co-produced with Al Groves, Bring Me The Horizon) and features the project’s mastermind Joel James’ most competent vocal performance to date!
ARTIST: The 3148s
TRACK: Picture of You
What we love most of The 3148s ‘Picture of You’ is that they reminded us a lot of 90s americana/alternative rock underdogs Ass Ponys. Powerful, honest and straight from the heart!
ARTIST: Wodan Boys
TRACK: So Damn Much
Next up we find the adorable Wodan Boys, and ‘So Damn Much’, with their shameless blend of noise rock with catchy alternative rock. Yup, these guys are loud enough to make your neighbour angry, but also catchy enough, to dance with your invisible pogo stick!
ARTIST: SickWalt
TRACK: Oh Weh Ha
‘Oh Weh Ha’ is the lead single from SickWalt’s forthcoming EP ‘MAXXED’, and is a chaotic, alternative/hard rock banger that will feed our appetite for the upcoming release! Sound like Danzig, but on the positive side of things!
ARTIST: Collide
TRACK: Are You Better Now
Collide’s ‘Are You Better Now’ is a slow-burner banger with powerhouse, female vocals, which combines elements of alternative rock, industrial, dark wave and shoegaze, bring in mind 90s acts like Curve & Ruby, and “asks the universal question of how are we all feeling in today’s complicated world”.
ARTIST: Arrivals
TRACK: Space and Time
Canadian alternative pop rock band influenced by British and American bands from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, Arrivals’ ‘Space and Time’ is a melodious amalgam of progressive rock with modern alternative pop with soaring melodies that will insatntly seep into your brain!
ARTIST: Blake Morgan
TRACK: My Love is Waiting
Alt pop crooner is brave enough to unleash all his passion and emotion with his distinctive vocals, and his most recent “brit-pop” anthem ‘My Love is Waiting’ is catchy as hell! Like in the gold 90s brit pop era! On endless repeat…
