Sleaford Mods – Tied Up In Nottz/The Fear of Anarchy
Speaking of which, this was pressed as a white label 7”, limited to 100 copies, and only available at the same show. Last seen going for money on eBay.
Fists – Vessel for Sound
These sly dogs are back from a self-imposed hiatus, marking their return by releasing a brand new LP track by track on Bandcamp. Woof.
White Finger – 18 Minutes Under Sneinton
Slacker punks caught live, sweaty and sticky, made available as a limited edition cassette at the band’s support slot for Sleaford Mods at Spanky’s.
Crosa Rosa – Widow Breeder
The grungy 2014 Future Sound of Nottingham competition finalists have tapped into some prime 1993 guitar noise and sprinkled it with the right amount of weirdness.
April Towers – Arcadia
Glossy synth-pop that’s been caning its parents A-ha and Ultravox records. With rumours of label interest, this debut single could be the start of something special.
Arcane Winter – The Mirror Cracked From Side to Side
Spiky goth punk that wears its eyeliner with pride. Perfect as the days get colder and nights draw in.
Dreaded Monkey – Glass
Dramatic alt-rock that lives in the space between Muse and Rage Against The Machine, but I bet neither of those bands ever made a music video in Eastwood.
