With their new EP 'Live From BBC Maida Vale' out now, Dublin band The Murder Capital have dropped their version of the FKA twigs tune 'Cellophane'. Whilst the song begins as an airy re-working of minimalism, it eventually transitions into a heavy post-punk crusher. Intense at peak points, the boys bring the sound back down to that previous space of peaceful moments, which is down quite masterfully.
Rosie Carney has unveiled her latest single 'i spoke to god', which is taken from her new EP 'i dreamed I was the night', which is out now on Color Study. Written in Ireland, the track is a magical offering dancing with utter beauty. Carney's vocal work is nothing short of spectacular as the heavenly production adds the perfect compliment, resulting in a wonderland-like soundscape.
Last month Irish band The Burma shared their track 'Same Again'. Now the trio unveil the B-side cut to the single pack titled 'Quicksand (2020 Version)'. Both songs are taken from their forthcoming EP 'Sugar Moonlight', out April 3rd via Spooner Records.
Inspired by random conversations heard whilst riding on a Belfast bus, Irish band New Pagans have unveiled their new track 'Charlie Has The Face Of A Saint'. Although the lyrics are quite the vivid story of guy dubbed Charlie who has problems fitting in school and more, New Pagans insist that it is left up for interpretation. A rushing sweep of alternative rock, the production on the track is quite crisp with lush guitar lines and a thick, rolling bass line all coinciding with sharp drum hits. With the vocals of singer Lyndsey McDougall adding a brightness to the tune, 'Charlie Has The Face Of A Saint' is a fantastic release from the rising band.
Dublin band Inhaler have shared their latest single 'Ice Cream Sundae'. According to the group's Faecbook page, the track was the first tune that they wrote together. A breezy and easing indie rock sliding with pop toppings, the lush instrumentation is glazed with an 80s layering whilst properly fitting for the now. Have a listen.
With their exceptional debut album 'When I Have Fears' currently out now, Dublin band The Murder Capital have shared a live performance of their song 'Don't Cling To Life (Part II/IV)'. Directed by Charlie Joe, along with The Murder Capital themselves, the video was recorded at D-light studios in Dublin. What you have here are clips featuring the band playing in front of a huge projection with the visuals practically looking better than many artists' official videos.
Earlier this year, Dublin band The Murder Capital made a splash with their driving post-punk track 'Feeling Fades'. Going on to drop more stellar tunes including 'Green & Blue' and 'Don't Cling To Life', their latest single 'More Is Less' is a rapid-fire post-punk bit that strikes with sinister guitar riffs, a thunderous bass line and fist-raising vocals that steamrolls with intensity.
Coming off of the back of two strong singles, 'Tombstone' and 'All That Remains Won’t Be The Same', Irish band Otherkin have now unveiled their third track titled 'On & On'. With this one definitely tailored for the dance floor, the group fuse electric alt-rock with a pumping club groove. Produced by Jolyon Thomas, there is a 90s styling to the track that creates a lovely air of nostalgia. The song coincides with Otherkin's latest announcement of a UK tour beginning in September.
After making a strong return with their electric song 'Tombstone', Irish band Otherkin now follow-up the track with their latest single 'All That Remains Won't Be The Same'. Recorded in the same session as the previous tune with producer Steve Dub, the tune is a continuation of the band shifting their sound into a rock meets electronic direction which is punchy and truly exciting. Sparking a sense of 90s nostalgia in a way, Otherkin are definitely what's needed in the music arena at the moment.
