Stealing Sheep Release "Never Gonna Live Up" Music Video


Liverpool-based indie pop/folktronic trio Stealing Sheep have released the video for their latest single "Never Gonna Live Up".

The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from their recent album 'WOW MACHINE', which came out on June 24 via Both Sides Records. Get your copy here.

Wow Machine is a special commission album inspired by electronic music’s female pioneers that takes a deep dive into the realms of electronics, sampling, splicing , looping and reversing.

“It’s about the overwhelming feeling of wanting to give up and the anger and frustration that arises as you keep striving but never get anywhere, wading through the mud pushing against the machine”, says Emily.

Their new video, the first they've directed, produced and edited themselves, depicts floating human heads lost in the ether, malfunctioning, glitching out and loosing their humanity.

“Synthetic everything’ surrounds us, face filters, virtual realities, perfected avatars…we’re living in the deep fake. How is this affecting our mental state? How does it control our next move? How will our mortal imperfections ever live up to that of the machines?”, says Bex.

Although the depiction is distopic, the overriding feeling is of empowerment and that nothing can replace human idiosyncrasy, that true beauty lies in imperfection.

Indigo Bay Unleash New Single "Say What You Wanna Say"


Grimsby, UK indie rock/indie pop/alt band Indigo Bay have unleashed their new single "Say What You Wanna Say".

The song is out now and is taken from their forthcoming debut EP ‘After Dark’, set to arrive on November 9th via Heist or Hit. Get it here.

vocalist/guitarist Callum Minks explains: “’Say What You Wanna Say’ is upbeat, summery, and talks about coming together and helping each other. It’s about holding onto your dream and chasing it. I have a bad habit of comparing myself with others which stops me from enjoying things, so the first verse is about having this dream but then feeling overwhelmed with how fast life seems to be flowing. Everyone else appears to be taking it in their stride, whereas I seem to be struggling to keep my head above the water.”

“The second verse is about reassurance. It mentions a light at the end of the tunnel and that people are around to help you get through tough times. So the song is a pick me up to make your voice heard and do what you want to do!”

Cool Sounds Share New Single "Like That"


Melbourne indie/jangle pop band Cool Sounds have shared their new single "Like That".

The song serves as the title track of their upcoming fifth studio album 'Like That', set to be released on October 7 via Chapter Music. Pre-order your copy here.

The title track is a moment of introspection on the album, like the ballad in an eighties teen movie. Cool Sounds’ pop polymath.

Dainis Lacey says:

"I sometimes like to create worlds and narratives that are too large to fit into a song and then pick and choose parts. In this track a gym rat and a business man become unlikely friends, and both have near death experiences. When I was writing this I was thinking about 80s shoegaze bands like Jesus and Mary Chain. It's a sound that feels equally at home with both blissfully romantic or somewhat seedier content."

Beverly Kills Release New Single "Fantasia"


Swedish indie pop/post- punk band Beverly Kills have released their new single "Fantasia".

The song is taken from their highly-anticipated debut album 'Kaleido', which will be out on September 30 via Welfare Sounds & Records. Pre-order your copy here.

Kaleido is the result of a creative process permeated by the pandemic, canceled tours, and a mindset where they put aside their previous frames of reference. It’s scattered, it’s uniform, it’s like looking through a kaleidoscope that reveals the pure essence of Beverly Kills.

From the band: Fantasia is about daydreaming catastrophic events. Crashing your car on the highway, walking out unscathed. Starting a fist fight with someone, and winning without a scratch on your hands.

The song is taken from their forthcoming album 'Night Music', set to arrive on November 11 via Born Losers Records. Pre-order your copy here.

With “On My Mind” the pair deliver a dreamy synth pop effort, balancing floating wistful reveries with hints of melancholy. The track wind through memories of a distant lover, with the pair longing to be reunited一“Close your eyes and hold my hand / Waiting for the day I can / Hold you in my arms again / Love you until my life ends.” The pair live up to their nocturnal inspirations, conjuring a heartfelt ballad that perfectly captures late night-longing and moonlit memories.

Han and Dimas explain, “When memories are the only thing you have, they grow more vivid with time as your mind clings ever more desperately to them. ‘On My Mind’ is an upbeat yet melancholic dream pop song that explores memory and laments love lost - but is it gone forever?”
