"Wild Love" explores themes of rejecting the harsh realities of life and the current political and social upheavals we all face with a desire to run and hide from it all. Lead singer Tom Cunningham describes the track: ‘Wild Love is a song about leaving everything behind and running away with someone. It’s a song about finding a new place away from all the trouble and pain. We all kind of want to run away even if we don’t know where we are running.’ Of the band’s name singer Tom says ‘Its from a Nick Lowe penned song, which Elvis Costello had a hit with called 'What’s So Funny About Peace Love and Understanding' that has the lyrics, "So where are the strong And who are the trusted? And where is the harmony? Sweet harmony.’

UPDATE December 02/2019: "Breathe" is our new Single of the Week!

Speaking about it, the band's Callum Merrett said: “Breathe is about the inescapability of our own human nature. How we are destructive purely by existing, and it isn’t something we can help. Some of us carry the burden of that responsibility and truly feel the guilt of being human. We’re all kind of hoping that it means something in the end, but perhaps that’s just desperately optimistic. Naive even. Also there is a chainsaw at the start.”

Our new SOTW is “Firestone" by Southampton, UK baggy/psych/stargaze band Superdrone.

The song is taken from their latest EP 'Creation', released last month via Shore Dive Records. Buy it here.

Firestone "is a mix of Manchester Indie from the early 90s enveloped in Indian Vibes. Sweeping in and out, panning from ear to ear, try to imagine the video, its colour flashes, collider-scopes and groovy 60s dancing, but not 60’s like that decade actually was, but the version that was emulated in the 90s, if there was an Austin Powers movie set in Manchester in 94, this would be the song on the trailer."

New Entry: Chase City Air New Single "Back In Motion"

Tasmanian indie rock/dance band Chase City have aired new single "Back In Motion".

Speaking about the song, the band explained: "We really tried to include our usual guitar hooks but they just weren't fitting and we were happy to take a really electronic approach to this. We had just watched the latest Trainspotting film before recording the song and we just wanted the production to feel like a song that could fit into a soundtrack like that."

"The lyrics are from a trip to Vietnam a couple of years back and just seemed to work really well with the song so the sentiment for the song is a bit outdated but is just about a time in our musical career where we were in that transition from early 20s kids into adulthood and trying to make music remain rewarding and enjoyable whilst growing up and having to juggle a lot more responsibilities."

Speaking about it, they explain: "The whole album is really about consequences, and how the consequences of that war are still with us. Money Is A Memory is probably the most explicit example of that - decisions that were made a hundred years ago still casting a shadow. The initial premise is a bit comical - the admin assistant going through their bureaucratic duties - but buried away inside those papers you can imagine the echoes of millions of lives being turned upside down."

New Entry: Silverbacks Premiere New Single "Sirens"

Dublin indie punk/alt rock band Silverbacks have premiered their new single "Sirens".

The song was produced by Girl Band bassist Daniel Fox, keeping him on to record ‘Sirens', we hear the creative spark well intact, with plenty to latch on to. The lushly recorded propulsive rhythm section prompts a visceral response from the three guitarists who weave fuzz-laden riffs, tonally warped solos, and spindly post-punk riffs into the phenomenal mix.

Switching from semi spoken nonchalance to unabashedly catchy glam punk melodies singer Daniel O'Kelly uses these aesthetics to deliver lyrics where he's camouflaging his disdain towards society with his natural sardonic wit.

Of the lyrics, O'Kelly says: "In ‘Sirens’, the narrator misses riots and important protests taking place in his city because he’s too preoccupied with writing the perfect soundtrack for what is happening. He’s equally distracted by his relationship issues, tennis, and his obsession with his favourite band."

The track is out now via Nice Swan Records, with the limited edition AA 7" out on 31st January 2020. Stream it below.

Watch: The Modern Times Air Music Video For "Stuck at Work"

Norwegian pop-punk band The Modern Times have aired the video for their latest single "Stuck at Work".

A musician once said: ”It’s such a fine line between stupid and clever.” That line is definitely blurred in the case of The Modern Times. The songs purvey adolescent ignorance or poignant satire, or maybe both – it probably depends on the listener. This hybrid of jangly and jagged post punk, snotty punk rock and garage-infused power pop hardly sounds like anything out there these days. This is also much to the credit of singer Magnus Vold Jensen’s unique and incisive delivery.

The song is taken from their sophomore album 'Algorhythmic Dance Music',  released in August via Black Pop Records. Buy it here.

The record sounds like confused Gang of Four-members arguing with Parquet Courts while The Hives beats them both to the bar. Or something like that.

Purple Heart Parade Announce New EP 'Desolation Angel', Stream "Petrichor"

Manchester psych/shoegaze band Purple Heart Parade have announced the release of their new EP 'Desolation Angel'

The follow up to last year's lauded Lonestar EP, will be out on January 10th through Club AC30, and "takes the bands expansive and textured sound to new heights."

It opens with lead single ‘Petrichor’ with its deftly dreamlike delivery that showcases the bands distance from previous influences and confidence in their own sound. Waves of engulfing, storm-like guitars crash across this entire EP but there are moments of extreme clarity within tracks like ‘Petrichor’ and ‘Red Rose County’, utilizing the full force of their loud/quiet shoegaze dynamics. Elsewhere tracks like ‘Starwheel’ and title track ‘Desolation Angel’ harness more of the infectious harmonies and chorus hooks that put them alongside some of their own cities finest. 

Once again the band recorded at Perry Vale Studios with Pat Collier (The Jesus and Mary Chain, X-Ray Spex). Moving on from their last record which was largely emotional and cathartic, ‘Desolation Angel’ is optimistic, romantic and mature. “Life's a roller-coaster through the heavens. You'll hit some soul destroying lows, but just up the track you know you're going to hit some heavenly highs. The EP is also about being true to yourself, standing up for your beliefs, doing your own thing, even though it's not considered cool. It's also about freeing yourself from negative situations in all aspects of life and cleansing yourself of them.

Pre-order the EP here, check out the tracklist and listen to new single "Petrichor, below.

Tracklist:
01. Petrichor
02. Sister Libra
03. Red Rose Country
04. Starwheel
