Coloured In




Coloured In 

Kent, United Kingdom

For fans of:
Pearl Jam, Kyuss, Death From Above 1979

Coloured In play a measured, grungy blend of punk rock. They employ a heavy, unrelenting rhythm with a gale of chorus washed guitars. Tom's deep, macho voice makes a refreshing contrast to the lyrics which harp back to midwest emo bands from yesteryear. All this, tightly wrapped in a straight forward verse-chorus-verse structure, makes Coloured In exciting and easily digestible in equal measure.

Giraffes? Giraffes!, Yourcodenameis:milo, Foals

Chiyoda Ku play a disciplined breed of math rock. For a band with such a good understanding of rhythm and meter, they don't allow it to distract them from writing catchy songs, as is so often the case. That's not to say Chiyoda Ku aren't afraid to get weird, but they're not afraid to play hectic, rockin' 4/4 beats when it matters either. I feel just as excited listening to them as I did listening to UK post-hardcore bands of the noughties for the first time, and that's a feeling I never thought I'd have again.

Skeleton Frames




Skeleton Frames 

Exeter, United Kingdom

For fans of:
My Bloody Valentine, Stone Temple Pilots, Tool

Skeleton Frames deliver a thick lacquer of sludgy rock music punctuated by the bittersweet vocals of singer Emily, and haunting vocal harmonies of guitarist Edd. While drawing heavily on the motifs of grunge and shoegaze, Skeleton Frames manage to carve a new, exciting path that is unique to themselves.
