Royaltee- a bright and breezy take on glammed out rock with a Kasabian meets 80s Cure indie rock feel, plenty of energy and dynamism, and some forays into ferocious hard rock. Rock and Roll fo sho. . Mental Rest – swaggering hard rock with a keening impassioned vocal- one foot in old school commercial rock (Purple, Bad Company, but actually mostly Monser Magnet) and a bit of that Foos thang ….plenty of MC5 influence too which is always very welcome. The Knevil Dead – dark neo goth psych rock somewhere between The Fuzztones at their darkest and artrock kit from Deus to The Young Gods though always with an element of playful experimentation and envelope pushing. Slightlykilld-Female fronted indie rock from Moscow, there’s an undercurrrent of electro but also early Shoegaze, Curve and Cranes, neat.
