Bernaccia - 'Awake' track review

For those of you who haven't had the utmost pleasure of listening to Bernaccia, I am so sorry. You really are missing out.
The dynamic group are due to release their latest single 'Awake' in early April, ahead of their highly anticipated debut album 'Growl Peace Belief'.
It comes as no surprise that the psyche rock group have maintained their high energy sound with 'Awake', layering upbeat percussion with a colossal rhythm section and gorgeously soulful vocals.

The track opens with intricate synth and peppy drums before welcoming Ellen Chetcuti's dreamy, yet powerful vocals. As the track progresses, an armada of bold riffs amplify the enchanting tone of the track, creating a blues rock bliss.
The addition of Jonny Noble's vocals not only creates a charming harmony, but reinforces the bluesy vibe and revitalises the track, keeping the audience hooked during the concluding instrumental. During which, the band combine chanting-esque vocals and a harmonica solo - two things I wouldn't usually put together, but the band make it work really well.
The overall sound is an indulgently rich track that packs herculean punch. It's ferociously energetic, whilst possessing chilled trance enduing vibe.
If this isn't the soundtrack to finding Shangri-La, then searching for paradise really isn't worth the effort.

Track of the Week - Sarajevo - The K's

Merseyside natives The K's kicked off 2018 by announcing that they had been signed to Republic Music Management. With a handful of sold-out headline shows already under their belt, their tongue-and-cheek indie tunes are earning them a loyal fan base and plenty of buzz. Their debut single 'Sarajevo' is an infectiously catchy and utterly charming track. The vocals are akin to a more in-tune Jamie T, giving their witty lyrics a warm ambiance. The upbeat melody gives a nod to early 2000s indie, but the ferocious riffs and hearty bass lines give it plenty of originality. The track has already achieved half a million streams on Spotify and it's a sure bet that there's bigger and better things on the horizon for The K's.

Poison - Mouses Track review

After relentless gigging, Billingham's lo-fi garage-punk duo Mouses are set to release their debut single: 'Poison'. If you haven't heard Mouses before (firstly, where have you been for the past two years?), imagine the love child of The Thermals, Dinosaur Jr and Wheatus on a generous kick of acid. The track opens by submerging you into a whirlpool of distorted guitar and fuzzy vocals, invigorating the track with a relentless energy. Despite the initially aggressive tone of the track, the infectiously catchy chorus provides it with a poppy undertone, making it incredibly upbeat and easy to dance/sing along to. I can envisage audiences belting out the lines: "I'm not breaking bones for you, I can be myself with a little bit of poison" - or at least that's what I presume Ste is singing under that heavy lo-fi disguise. If I'm perfectly honest, I'm unsure what the song is about, referencing' everything from; a 'crashing tiger...

Interview with Lee Allcock from NE VOLUME

I caught up with Lee Allcock, editor of NE Volume , a music local magazine that celebrates everything the North East has to offer. Tell us about yourself and the story behind NE Volume ? My idea actually began back in college, where I basically wanted to go to gigs, review them, and get paid for it – I thought, at 16, that that would be the dream job. I then went on to study Journalism at Teesside University, and I worked voluntarily at another North East Music Magazine where I noticed they were covering the Newcastle area primarily. Whilst working for that magazine, I felt that bands, venues and music-related businesses in Teesside and the surrounding areas weren’t getting the recognition they deserved. So my idea basically came about because I wanted to help those involved in the music scene in this area – and the North East as a whole – to gain recognition for their hard work. Which artists and/or experiences fuelled your love of music and which albums do yo...
