Blue Oblivion is Grandmas House’s latest offering from their upcoming album Baby You’re A Winner. Driven by a pulsing bass line, the track showcases the band’s ability to balance raw energy with delicate vocal harmonies and dynamic tempo shifts that keep the momentum going throughout. It opens with restraint, allowing the vocals to shine, before building through the repeated refrain of “Now you’re in my head, in my head” and exploding into the chorus. After the final chorus, the song dissolves into a towering wall of sound, bringing the track to a powerful close. Blue Oblivion is a confident statement from Grandmas House and reason enough to have 21 August firmly circled in the calendar. – Henry Dunn

At a mere 2 minutes and 59 seconds, Radio Free Alice encapsulate the peak of their recent meticulous sound in fresh single “Kick In The Shins”, lead vocalist Noah Learmonth reminiscent of the likes of Paul Banks of Interpol, edgy yet enticing. Within this track full of lyrics of witty angst, we hear an enticing mix of early 2000’s New York City rock influences, modern indie Wunderhorse-esque guitar sounds and overall, a post-punk attitude and sound that expresses the fastidious and sharp nature of Radio Free Alice, your next obsession, think the new “Skinty Fia” era Fontaines DC. – Amy Porter

Walt Disco double down on theatrical extravagance with ‘Lies’, a track bursting with gothic-pop brilliance. Operatic vocals glide seamlessly across the track’s synth arrangements, making its soundscape feel retro yet contemporary. The track dissects deception with a flourish, turning heartbreak into a grand spectacle. An unapologetic anthem of melodrama, it cements the band’s knack for creating art-pop that is as resonant as it is dynamic. – Lauren Moreton

Offering an intimate glimpse into Mollie Coddled’s world of sun-dappled indie-pop, “The Art of Falling Apart” features hazy textures that cushion fragile vocal melodies that tackle personal vulnerability with honesty. Rather than leaning into chaotic despair, the track captures the acceptance of life’s unravelling, wrapping dark, reflective themes in a comforting sonic blanket. An effortlessly charming listen, the song highlights an ability to transform relatable anxiety into sweet dream-pop. – Katie Macbeth

Aggression meets a crushing atmospheric depth in Sunbleached’s relentless new single, ‘Pain Chamber.’ Built on a foundation of churning riffs, the track plunges head-first into intensity. The song’s piercing vocals tear through a dense and distorted wall of sound, capturing an overwhelming sense of internal struggle and existential catharsis. Dark and abrasive yet beautifully engineered, ‘Pain Chamber’ is heavy alt at its finest, delivering a wave of emotion that leaves a mark. – Chloe Jenkins
