Their latest album 'The Warping' is Walt Disco at their most raw, dramatic and beautifully strange. It’s a record about envy, gender, longing, and love - theatrical, honest and entirely on their own terms. An essential listen.

Brighton-based Swallowtail are creating some of the most exciting sounds in the country right now. Their swirling, euphoric take on shoegazing post-punk calls to mind dignitaries of the genre Sonic Youth and The Twilight Sad, whilst remaining new, fresh and crucial.

Prima Queen are best friends. When Louise and Kristin met at university, an instant bond was formed and, not long later, so was their band. Their debut album, The Prize, is a vibrant celebration of that friendship, ambition, and life’s beautiful contradictions.

Full of lurching verses and fist-to-sky choruses, Glasgow punks Humour's music is made for Rockaway Beach. With their debut album, Learning Greek, out at the beginning of August they're set for a mega few months and an even more mega few years. For them, RB might just be the tip of the iceberg.
