A little while ago, there was a spate of records and acts that were kinda miserable, but anthemic with it. It wasn’t exactly Grunge 2.0, but emotional lyrics and crunchy guitars were definitely back. One of the better artists from this period was Soccer Mommy, who as it happens, is back with a new song!…

Vince Guaraldi’s work with the soundtrack on the Peanuts cartoons is rightly the stuff of legend. Achingly cool and whistleable jazz, bopping away under the utterly charming and razor sharp voice work from the Shultz created characters, which obviously include Snoopy and the mighty Charlie Brown. Re-discovered in the vaults is the somewhat timely ‘You’re…

You know Bratmobile right? They’re lumped in with the Riot Grrrl movement, but to us, they were more garage punk than grunge adjacent. Either way, for fans of snotty, smart tunes with fuzzy guitars, it’s good news and they’re going to be playing their first live show in a couple of decades! Great news! Now,…

This is a genuinely lovely bit of news and it doesn’t matter if you’ve heard of Bring Me The Horizon or not. Trust us. Keep reading, it’ll be worth it in the end. What’s going on then? Well, there’s a children’s author called Oliver Sykes. The singer of BMTH is called Oli Sykes. People have…
