The Scuts – Combining the American Idiot end of punk pop with a hoedown shit kicking element- lots of jollies here, certainly will be fun live , a great punky party vibe… Lots of chantalong BVs and a general rowdy appeal… Kid Dean – Some nicely jangled but crisp and rocking scally cum psych rock…more like The High than The Stone Roses but that ballpark ya get me- bit of Bunnymen in here, some nice tood and a generally cool feel with garagey guts and a low slung slouch amongst the Oasoid rock that lifts it to something more satisfying. Very good this. Contrastingly.. Forever Alien – moody slomo electronica somewhere between early Cabaret Voltaire and Square Pusher – and a bit of Aphex Twin for sure…The Young Moons-shoegazing post rock infused indie with some nice glacial guitar that reminds of Chameleons, nice. Strong tunes too.
