WALLFLOWER
Wallflower are five boys from South London making some
of the most beautiful alternative music around today. They’re
underrated and understated but more than deserve some
love from you beautiful people. They’ll gently lull you into
sways and then they’ll have you singing back their laments
and torments with real passion in no time at all. They’ve been
busy hitting the festival circuit, plus they have a new EP due
mid-August. They’ll also be supporting Milk Teeth on tour
this summer so get to a show early and check out Wallflower!
VILLES
Leading a new wave of post-hardcore, Villes lead with a
sound that fuses electronics, with synths, dirty vocals and
melodies. Sounds intense right? Well, sometimes music is
all about hitting you square between the eyes and its likely
Villes will do just that. Currently based in Signapore, it’s
unlikely we’re gonna get a UK tour any time soon, however,
they have just dropped new album, The Cure, for you to
indulge in. If you like it enough, badger them on social
media and get them over here for a UK tour ASAP.
SPARROWS
Hailing from Canada, Sparrows are “four dudes who like
to jump and break stuff.” That’s their words, not ours, but if
that’s anything to go by then chances are their live shows are
something to behold! It’s not just their self-professed chaos
that gives us that impression, listen to their debut album,
Let The Silence Stay Where It Was, and you’ll get an idea of
just how worthwhile they are. They don’t sound like anyone
else around right now, and that is a feat in itself. Go listen to
them immediately.
