Deep.Sleep - 1994 Track Review



Newcastle indie-rock group Deep.Sleep are back with their latest single '1994'. The single was launched last night at an intimate gig at indie hot spot Little Buildings, which has become synonymous with the finest live performances Newcastle has to offer.

The lads have stayed true to their roots with the track, telling the tale of a turbulent love affair with an older woman whilst venturing through a chaotic night out in Newcastle.

The track opens with an vibrant guitar riff before welcoming peppy percussion and front man Dan Frend's lilting vocals, creating an upbeat yet chilled ambiance.

Frend's vocals have adopted a smoother tone, focusing more on creating charming harmonies opposed to grittier, bolder front he usually opts for, giving the song a poised fluidity.

As the track progresses, the band incorporates a series of melodies that showcases their flair for creating memorable, catchy riffs and a balanced, yet engaging and full-bodied sound.

Overall, it's a very promising track for the band , that'll be the perfect addition to an upbeat summer playlist.

The track has already been a part of the band's set for a couple of years now, however this version of it possesses a much more polished and professional tone. From the layering of vocals that create an almost ethereal sound, to the layered guitar riffs that ooze energy, the track has reached a much more mature style and is definitely the kind of sound that the four-piece should strive for.

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.

'YOUR TRIP BEGINS NOW' - THE FROOT '67 E.P. REVIEW

'Your trip begins now' is the latest four track E.P. from Hull's finest pysche rock outfit: The Froot '67.  As the name would suggest, the group's roots are planted within dynamic 60's rock and the band have revitalised this era through their bold, gritty sound. The E.P. opens with 'Chaos Theory', a track that is fuelled by frantic and beefy lo-fi riffs, whilst Newby's vocals take a more subtle, nonchalant route. Despite being a psyche rock track, the overall sound of the song reminds me of a more reserved version of 'Gravedweller' by The Wytches. It's a very different sound to their debut album; '7 past 8'; but this grungier edge is definitely a good thing for the group. It's broadening their sound without destroying the unique vibe they've already established for themselves. Plus, it;s a really engaging opening to the E.P. and sets a raw, and somewhat brooding, ambiance for the E.P. The following track, 'I don...
