Brighton Quartet Lacuna Bloome Release Debut Single 'Only One'

The four-piece Brighton indie rockers released their hypnotic debut single in late August to much praise that the single has already surpassed over a thousand streams on Spotify and is continuing to climb. They've already managed to rack up a note-worthy 3,500 streams with their dreamy debut, an impressive feat when it's your first single. With a spine-tingling lyrical beginner and a melodically enchanting entrance into the depth of the song, you can't go wrong with this transcendent tune.

'Only One' showcases the sophisticated layers of the four-piece's talent and their arguably magical chemistry, proving to be a song you won't be able to get out of your head (tried and tested. It's still stuck). They aren't like any ordinary band that people in the music industry are constantly raving about but a much more underappreciated band with potential to sell-out their own shows within the next three years. Keep on the look out for these lot, as this banger puts them well on the radar for emerging talent, especially since Brighton is already flying the flag for talented indie bands (The Magic Gang, Black Honey, etc). You won't regret giving this one a spin.

Out of all of the much anticipated releases of August, Lacuna Bloome's groovy enchantment puts them in the leading race for exciting future endeavors. If you haven't already listened to it make sure you check it out here, like them on Facebook and follow 'em on Soundcloud.

12 Artists in 2021

May it be artists you already know and love that are gearing up to release a much anticipated album, an artist you've yet to delve into but have heard plenty about, or an artist whom you have never heard of before, this list should - and hopefully will - be an accumulation of the sorts. This past year has been, well, a shit one and it's only getting worse as 2021 gets into full flow. Throughout the dark, dreary and lonesome days of 2020 there has been one constant, and that is the music we have been treated to in light of such a devastating time. With some spectacular albums from many different artists, to comebacks, and to albums that provided us with some light-hearted entertainment, it leaves a lot for 2021 to live up to. With the recent dismissal of the arts from the Government (obviously, the Tories have never consumed a bit of media in their life and, when Matt Hancock said he listened to Grime , that was clearly nothing but a fabrication) and the recent Brexit revelatio...

Post-rock outfit HAAL release monumental 'Memorial'

Following up from their debut single, Carmen Jones , released last year and accumulating just over 1,600 streams, the Bristol rockers have shaken up the system with their latest release Memorial , a cacophony of orchestral sounds mixed with progressive influence. Photo: Amia Watling With a sound reminiscent of Slint and a hint of Nine Inch Nails , HAAL is a band that wouldn’t sound out of place soundtracking a David Fincher m ovie . Memorial is a track that creeps up on you and rewards you for your patience. Even more rewarding is the wall of distortion in the climax of the song, ending the song in beautiful grandness. There is evidence of the band's knowledge of music theory in their clever usage of dissonance, a complex time signature, and a complex structure so tasteful that if it was plated up in the Masterchef final, it would be more tear-jerking than getting a 7 from Anthony Fantano. The math-rock influence is unmistakable; beginning with the introduction of the dru...

Black Country, New Road release highly anticipated debut album 'For the first time'

Black Country, New Road start off their highly anticipated debut album with an instrumental that sets the tone for the rest of the songs. The track is nothing but effortless; alike puff pastry with its copious layers you’re left struggling to count, and sounding like something soundtracking a Damien Chazelle film. For the first time , the newest offering from a promising young band (with 7 very good, very talented members), is bound to be divisive — I mean, you can’t please everyone . With the band being compared to acts who don’t fit into any given genre, thus being packed into a box together to form some sort of ‘odd one out’ sound, such as the likes of Squid , black midi , and Girl Band , they’ve become the genre most would describe as simply ‘weird’. What else do you use to describe a band who seamlessly blur the lines between the genres they’re being told they belong to? Sure, they’re a fusion of post-punk and whatever else people brand them as but, for me, they’re a...
