Untold Story - Veterans Charity Single

Vade B has teamed up with Dragg and Dan Moody to create 'Untold Story', a song with one soul purpose - to help and support our valiant veterans.
Every day our troops in the armed forces are faced with challenging and stressful situations. Unfortunately, this can often have a detrimental effect on the individuals, potentially leading to physical injuries or psychological disorders. One of the most devastating of which is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (P.T.S.D).
P.T.S.D is defined as: "a condition of persistent mental and emotional stress occurring as a result of injury or severe psychological shock, typically involving disturbance of sleep and constant vivid recall of the experience, with dulled responses to others and to the outside world."
The symptoms of P.T.S.D. include: Anxiety attacks, substance misuse, isolation/periods of withdrawal, feelings of extreme guilt, issues regarding social interaction/work/relationships, nightmares, insomnia, flashbacks angry/aggressive behaviour, self destructive behaviour, self harm and suicidal thoughts.

This is where the team at 'Untold Story' step in. All the proceed's from the Hull-based group's heartfelt song will go towards supporting veterans affected by this awful condition, helping to give them the care they need.
The lyrics of the track were inspired by conversations the group had with those affected by P.T.S.D., ensuring that the poignant message of the track was delivered authentically and respectfully.

The track is set to be released on August 12th, costing only £1 and your support is essential for the success of this project and the well-being of many brave veterans.

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...
