LISTEN THIS WEEK:
Every week we highlight a few songs that you should absolutely listen to. In week 10 these are:
Artio – Queen Cobra
Genre: Alternative rock
FFO: YONAKA, Black Honey
Listen because: The infinite power and energy of Leeds-based alt rock rebels Artio all erupt in their incredible new single ‘Queen Cobra’ which is the perfect and even stronger successor to previous single ‘Billionaire Nightmare’! The band is only on the brink of their career but with their frenzied sound they are ready for a big break!
The Pretty Visitors – Western Skies
Genre: Indie rock
FFO: The Reytons, The Hunna, Catfish and the Bottleman
Listen because: Soaring guitar lines, spoken vocals and a relaxed, unhurried soundscape make for an infectious indie rock song with undeniable festival-vibes!
45ACIDBABIES – Mommy’s Favourite 1
Genre: Electronic rock
FFO: Sleigh Bells, The Kills
Listen because: We enjoyed single number three; ‘Walk With Me’, and now 45ACIDBABIES is back with ‘Mommy’s Favourite 1’. ‘Mommy’s Favourite 1’ is difficult to put in a box because it has influences from pop, rock, and electronic. This song shows the growth of the band, while keeping their own sound. Although this song is somehow more poppy, it still produces the energy we know so well from 45ACIDBABIES. All these recently released songs are terrific teasers for their future material.
Salt River Shakedown – Honey
Genre: Blues rock
FFO: Crobot, The Lazy’s, Jared James Nichols
Listen because: The warm sound of Scottish blues rock outfit Salt River Shakedown is catchy and shows that rock is still alive and kicking as they serve up a dose of healthy guitar riffs!
