Street art? Secret location? Free booze?! If any of these pique your interest (and frankly, we don’t know many that can resist the latter) then you are in luck, friends. This evening (Thursday 2 July) the team behind GraffitiStreet.com bring us their new show, ‘Underground’. The online street art gallery, founded in 2013, is on a mission to urbanise our lives, and switch more people on to the world of street art. Underground promises to be a night of fun: complimentary drinks,...
By Eleanor Stammeijer (@ElStammjam) 30.6.2015, The Forum, London Nothing builds buzz like an artist’s return after a cancelled show. Hozier was feeling a bit unwell for his original performance at The Forum, but this rescheduled, sold out show has the crowd enthused despite long queues in the evening heat. Irish trio Wyvern Lingo have joined Hozier for his UK and Ireland tour. Made up of Karen Cowley, Caoimhe Barry, and Saoirse Duana, the chemistry between them is palpable as they...
Crying kids, stitched eyeballs, waterboarding and severed heads - yep, Thy Art Is Murder are back in town, and they've brought a politically charged, shred-heavy video with them. The official video for 'Holy War', the title track from the Australian metallers' new album, is sure to raise a few eyebrows and turn a few stomachs. Heads may indeed roll over their extreme depiction of the war on terror, but let's not forget that at the centre of the carnage TAIM are...
Nottingham alt-rock trio Kagoule have premiered the new music video for latest single ‘Glue’. The tongue-in-cheek, medieval-themed video sees the band donning an assortment of handmade vintage garments, riding horses, chowing down on banquets and swilling down a goblet of wine or two. ‘Glue’ is taken from Kagoule’s highly-anticipated debut album, 'Urth', which is due for release on August 21st. That'll be a slice of tasty alternative, then.
By Kane Power (@ElHeavio) 24.6.15, The Roundhouse, London North London courts were overwhelmed last Thursday as thousands of people filed lawsuits against promoters All Tomorrow’s Parties, after being left partially deafened from a Mogwai concert. Local magistrates are in agreement that most of the cases have no basis, as anyone who still underestimated the Scottish post-rock giants after 20 years on the scene deserves to feel the full brunt of their noise. Mogwai graced The Roundhouse on Wednesday night to...
Canterbury stoner rockers OHHMS are back with two more monolithic slabs of depth-charge doom on their latest LP 'Cold'. The tracks, titled 'The Anchor' and 'Dawn of the Swarm', clock in at over thirty minutes, so expect a crushing, winding ride of slow builds and powerful riffs. OHHMS are also heading out on an extensive tour in support on 'Cold'. Dates can be found below. Keep posted to TLE for our review of 'Cold' to follow later this week. OHHMS Tour...
The heyday of British seaside towns is long passed. Memories of a Cornetto on the pebbles and a sunburnt nose down the lido have been replaced by peeling paint, shuttered shop-fronts and piss-smelling sand. Allow Sleaford Mods to distill the scene into three minutes of bittersweet seaside town antics in their new video for 'Tarantula Deadly Cargo.' If the title sounds familiar then you might just have a taste for 70's B-movies, the band taking the title from the classic arachno-flick of...
Alabama rockers \\GT// are getting rocked/psyched/fuzzed up as the release date for their debut album 'Beats Misplaced' approaches. The LP drops on 31st July and promises to delivery a raucous slice of bluesy, hazy noise to your earholes. Get a taste of what's to come below with the driving distortion of "Something's Wrong With My Mind".
Bristol wonky pop trio, Jemima Surrender, have released their new single Sylvia and with an accompanying video. Sylvia is the first song to be revealed from their forthcoming debut album, The Uninhabited World, due for release this autumn. Watch the video below to see Millie and her boys strut their way through Sylvia like Top of the Pops never died. https://soundcloud.com/jemima-surrender/sylvia/s-J9Evz
