Foster the People - Torches

Review by Dannii Leivers

At no point on Torches is there any sense of edge, of losing control.»

FM Belfast - Don't Want To Sleep

Review by Dannii Leivers

FM Belfast don’t take themselves seriously and if you follow suit, there’s great times to be had. »

Is Tropical - Native To

Review by Dannii Leivers

You can’t help feeling Is Tropical may have made a mistake by playing their aces too early.»

The Wombats - This Modern Glitch

Review by Dannii Leivers

Taken in context it’s a fun, immediate sugar-rush of a listen. »

Review by Dannii Leivers

The Joy Formidable - The Big Roar

Review by Dannii Leivers

One has to wonder exactly why it’s taken The Joy Formidable so long to get The Big Roar together. But for the most part, these tracks burn with anthemic vivacity.»

ox scapula - Hands Out

Review by Dannii Leivers

In their own words, Ox Scapula describe their sound as ‘loud, klangy, horrible, awkward, punk’ - Hands Out easily fulfils this agenda, there’s not much more you could expect or ask from it. »

Here We Go Magic - Pigeons

Review by Dannii Leivers

The front-heavy momentum of Pigeons is enough to ensure that that the dreamy beauty of Here We Go Magic’s debut has been fiercely preserved»
