Greyhaven – ‘KEEP IT QUIET’

The word ‘grey’ has plenty of negative connotations. Tarmac is grey, the sky is grey, depression is grey, porridge is grey, the mood is very much grey. Despite it being part of their name, ‘grey’ is the last colour you’d use to describe Greyhaven’s new record. Technically,

TV CULT – ‘Industry’

German post punks TV CULT describe their music as “somewhere between The Cure and Minor.” Their debut album, 2023’s ‘Colony’, lent hard on their punk influences and led to the band touring with acts such as Ditz and Militarie Gun. ‘Industry’, the sophomore follow-up, sees the band embrace

Motion City Soundtrack – ‘The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World’

It never quite seemed fair that Motion City Soundtrack were painted with the brush of pop punk early in their career, or that their later albums were judged in that light. Certainly, ‘Commit This To Memory’ and ‘Even If It Kills Me’ were the closest the band came
