The Wrap: April 2023 ✨

we’ve got our brand new The Wrap feature for April 2023 for you all! ☀️ it’s been yet another incredible month of releases and we’ve covered just a fraction of what’s come out – check out all the reviews below! ⬇️


Grimsby’s Last Of The Wonder Kids have returned with their third single “Running With Scissors“, and it sounds fantastic! Energetic throughout, giving us vibes of 2000’s indie rock but adding a lovely touch of scuzzy punk to make a gorgeous tune. With a real powerful melody, in-your-face vocals and a proper attitude behind it, it’s a brilliant tune and is sure to put them on any ones-to-watch list. (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE / BANDCAMP)


Wigan’s indie rockers Flechettes have just put out their latest single “We Shall Find Out“! There’s a proper drive to this track, we can hear a lot of grungey and alternative rock influence in the back of it but it really stays true to that familiar Northern indie sound – a massive rhythm section helping the track flow gives so much space for the lovely guitar riffs that are present throughout, and the ferocity of the main vocal makes this a proper banger from these guys. Check it out! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE)


We’ve covered Blue Orchid Reaction‘s music a bunch in the past and they’ve come back with a brand new single “Atmosphere“! It’s taken a slightly more relaxed approach compared to their previous releases, but it still sounds lovely – it’s got a lot of 90’s alternative and indie in there, yet with a lot of energy in the choruses to keep the track grooving along. We can hear a lot of The Jesus and The Mary Chain in this, or bands such as The Verve – it’s a lovely tune and we can’t wait to hear any more tunes they’ve got coming up! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE / BANDCAMP)


The debut single from Sara RaeOctober” is a wonderful introduction to her music! It’s a gorgeous song, really well put together, we can hear a lot of folkier influences in it yet there’s elements of more mid-west emo with the guitar melody, a beautiful picking pattern that really balances and compliments her vocal – her lyricism is raw and honest, you can really feel the feeling and passion put into the song. The production is spot on – every instrument is perfectly placed within the track, it’s an incredible debut release. (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC)


A familiar face on the Manchester scene, Tallulah Guard has just put out their brand new single “Burn“! We’re huge fans of Tallulah’s music and this sounds incredible. We can hear a lot of 90’s alternative rock in it, with a lovely element of tension from the power chords and restrained drumwork, whilst Tallulah’s vocal soars effortlessly over the track, relaying their lyrics superbly and painting the picture of the song with a real eloquence. The build of the track in the second chorus is gorgeous and it going to a really stripped back feeling straight after is a beautiful contrast. It’s well worth a listen! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE)


We covered Luc Garrett‘s collaboration with Katie Elizaa back in February, and he’s just returned with his solo debut single “On My Mind“! It’s a beautiful track, it opens up with a gorgeous soundscape, with his wonderful vocal sounding amazing over the top, with his raw and personal lyricism shining through. The instrumentation gels together so well to create a lovely backdrop for him, and the use of vocal harmonies is perfectly placed to compliment his main vocal – plus, the piano solo is a real lovely touch to show off his ability! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE)


Manchester psych-rock outfit Strange Dream have just put out their second single “Miss Annie“! Giving us a real reminiscence of the early 90’s and late 80’s, this track sounds gorgeous – the guitar tones are superb, it creates a lovely sonic atmosphere, and the vocal glides over the top of it all so well, it’s a great track and really shows off the band’s ability. The dreamy elements of the track are perfect for a sunny day – well worth putting on during this warmer weather! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE)


We’ve had The Amber List perform for us before, and they’ve come back with a harder, more rock and roll sound in the form of their new single “Red Lines & Promises“! With a real energy behind the track, they’ve got a lovely tune under their belts here – we’re huge fans of their new sound. The lyricism throughout is fantastic, it’s a real depiction of their Northern roots – something we can relate to very well. Well worth checking out! (SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC / YOUTUBE)


another fantastic month of music for us here, it’s incredible to see a stream of continuous incredible music coming out – big shout to everyone who has checked this out! ☀️

Just The Crust 15/05/23: Bonfire Tide – Every Terrible Thing ⚡️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from the amazing Bonfire TideEvery Terrible Thing“!

they’ve been making waves this year, having just performed at The Great Escape Festival in Brighton last weekend, releasing their first single of 2023 “The Old Boys” and they’ve got a gig on this coming Friday supporting the amazing James Holt at Sacred Trinity Church! ☀️

this new single sounds incredible, opening up with a gorgeous tapestry of sound that we’ve come to expect with their music – David’s main vocal sounds absolutely gorgeous over the track, his ability to control the softer aspects and then belt it out when necessary marks him as an exceptional vocalist. the soundscape behind him through the instrumentation is incredible, you can really hear the craft and effort put in by the band to really create something special. 😊

this is one of our favourite ones by them yet, and we can’t wait to hear more – you can find the music video in full over on YouTube at https://youtu.be/jy4DB7mm5cE or it’s on all the streaming platforms to listen! well worth checking out 🤘
