THE STRANGE DEATH OF LIBERAL ENGLAND» Official website
"They sound like God's own orchestra" - (Uncut Magazine)
"Intellecto-situationists TSDOLE are here to distract us from the earthly pleasures of The Twang. And prevail they shall - mainly because they sound like Arcade Fire with tattoos and have a singer so dreamily effete he makes Neil Young seem like a car wash worker" - (NME)
THOMAS TANTRUM» Official website
Boy/girl four piece signed to Marquis Cha Cha. There's more than a hint of 70s post-punk sounds (think The Raincoats, And The Native Hipsters) but there's also a bit of The Breeders in there too and the guitars remind me a lot of Wire. A band to look out for producing catchy tunes with distinctive vocals that waver between childlike cuteness and Karen O!
SEEING SCARLET» Official website
Seeing Scarlet burst onto the live circuit leaving accolades in their wake, then set to work on their debut album. Captivating from start to finish and set against a backdrop of melodies that bury themselves deep inside your brain, Mental Notes is a snapshot from their lens, a cross-section sliced from shared experience. This is a band with all the dark intrigue of Depeche Mode or Interpol, overlaid with the wit and disdain of the Smiths.
DJ MR ANDREW XYNTHEX» Official website
Fresh off the scene in Brighton, self-styled electrocious DJ Mr Andrew XyntheX combines the rigours of glam, electronic and disco punk to take control of your feet. Expect grinding beats and chunking guitar sounds that'll have you gurning and grooving on the dance floor like a loon.
