Palette Knife – ‘KEYFRAME’

Imagine an artist. A painter. Their work, their art, isn’t just about ideas. It’s about expression, the form, the way they paint the picture. Maybe they choose water colours, they might choose to work with oils or acrylic. They might use a brush to apply paint to

Sugar Horse – ‘NOT A SOUND IN HEAVEN’

It’s time. That slow, creeping sense of dread. The feeling that plans were being made, that schemes were being hatched, and that something evil is brewing in the depths of Brighton. Yes, Sugar Horse are back with their third full-length record. If you’ve followed their career, you’ll

As Everything Unfolds – ‘DID YOU ASK TO BE SET FREE?’

Mothica – ‘SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN’

The darkness closes in, the world seems just too hard, you wrap yourself up in the blankets, stay in bed and hope the world will go away, and then, the season changes, you pull away the covers and emerge as a different person entirely. Mothica has battled

Bruise Control – ‘BRUISE CONTROL’

Some days you may feel a bit slow. Some days you might be as sharp as a tack. But not today. You may have said it at least three times out loud before you realise; Bruise Control’– it’s a pun. Thankfully, even if you’re feeling slow, the
