Seize The Chair - Deborah
Razor sharp guitars slice through the pop shop vocals that put you in mind of Young Knives playing Bloc Party covers in a windowless basement circa 77. Jerky, angular, driven fun.

Mnemotechnic - Penny for Belief
Here’s a bit of energetic French rock in the vein of Bloc Party, covering an Errors track whilst going histrionic on Red Bull in a sweaty black box club.
Widowspeak - Lonely Heights

Widowspeak - Harsh Realm
The lovechild of Mazzy Star and Chris Isaak has finally been delivered and it’s as good looking, wistful and darkly evocative of wasted desert lines at night as you all thought it would be.
Knesset - Gathering Fans

Knesset - Bitter Hearts
You’re put in mind of Conor Oberst fronting a 90’s college band or Portland collective, but with a more gazey, washed out feel to the whole proceedings. Eminently listenable.

Total Slacker - Psychic Mesa

A warm, pulsing, missed heartbeat of a song full of new folk influences but with a weary soul all its own.
Psychobuildings - Crazed Constructions

Psychobuildings - No Man’s Land
What come on initially as an updated 80’s Blitz club anthem soon convinces you there’s more going on here with its faux slop bass twang and poppy direction.
Big Troubles - a Little Reminder
Find more Big Troubles songs at Myspace Music
Big Troubles - Misery
