Cove unveils a nostalgic debut tune, "Rain"

Launching anything always tends to be difficult, and sometimes a band's first single may go unnoticed but not for us. Cove hails from the gorgeous Vicenza in Italy and has unveiled a nostalgic-tinted debut tune, "Rain". ... if they keep this up they could be a big name on the Italian rock scene. If you're a fan of your swaggering vocals then you'll love this, think of it as part Alex Turner in places with some Brit-pop undertones giving it that powerful effect. Musically speaking it's chock full of guitar hooks that if you're an alt-rock guitar fan you'll be falling head over heels for it. The tempo is perfectly sitting at a pace that'll have you tapping your foot to it with backing vocals that you'll also be humming back by the end of the first play. In short, it's a strong debut release, and I have to say if they keep this up they could be a big name on the Italian rock scene.

Interpol reveal video for "The Rover"

Interpol have released the video to powerhouse new single ‘The Rover", taken from forthcoming Dave Fridmann-produced new album "Marauder", which is released August 24th via Matador. The video was shot on-location in Mexico City in June, during a whirlwind journey where Interpol announced their new album via a live-streamed press conference. Paul Banks says: " I like to describe the video for "The Rover" as a prequel. It’s the origin story of the character described in the song, the birth of a cult leader. When we meet him he is partly unhinged. He’s a man on the verge, an artist subjected to great pressures, and beset with existential frustrations. A distracted hipster who enjoys psychedelics, let’s say." ⇒ FOLLOW OUR SPOTIFY PLAYLIST HERE ⇐

Moose Wrench return with the big new tune, "Dead Stars"

Leeds, England trio Moose Wrench return with their new single, "Dead Stars". The single is a re-recording of their 2021 single and features very much the same vocal structure as its predecessor. However, this time around, the track sounds far more psychedelic and noisy. ... a mind-bending alt-rock explosion where psychedelic chaos, heavy riffs and indie energy collide. I personally loved those deep and brooding vocals on the track, but my real love came from the guitar riffs that are layered within the song. It's got this fusion of sounds that range from alt-rock to math-rock, prog, punk and, obviously, psychedelic, with them all coming together in one absolute eargasm of noise. The final minute of the song is an absolute flurry of one genre: indie rock. For me, this was almost the confirmation that I'm definitely going to be listening to this outfit plenty more times after this single. From the very start of the song to the very end, the first impression I had was am...

The XX reveal video for "On Hold (Jamie XX Remix)"

At the end of 2016, The XX announced their return and news of a new album, "I See You" with the lead single "On Hold" and the track has quickly gone on to become one of The xx’s biggest songs to date. Today, the band’s very own Jamie XX reveals his "On Hold" remix, which is his first official remix in over four years. It comes accompanied by a 'remix video' from Alasdair McLellan, who made the original 'On Hold' video Want to have your music on It's All Indie? Click here for how to do so!

New Sunday reveals their stunning single, "The Empty Street"

Hafnarfjörður, Iceland, is home to New Sunday, a studio project that has got some incredible sounds to them. The single is "The Empty Street," the third since launching early this year, and is a whimsical blend of cinematic acoustic music and driving folk beats, with some contemporary pop vocals polishing it off. ... a stunning cinematic folk-pop journey filled with soothing strings and atmospheric beauty. Built around songwriter Einar Askelsson's carefully crafted compositions, the track showcases her vocals and her attention to detail with her music. It is simply stunning, with the atmospheric sounds and the soothing violin strings offering you plenty of opportunities to feel like you can end up disappearing into her back catalogue of music. The song is incredibly well-written, with stunning vocals and incredible instrumentation. I feel like this is simply the beginning of this project and is no doubt one of the best rising artists that Iceland currently has. Want u...

SAMSARA. drop their big new tune, "IN TOO DEEP"

Coming out of New York is the brilliant and stunning SAMSARA., and the band have recently dropped their big new tune, "IN TOO DEEP". The quintet have a sound that can rival any of the big alt-rock bands that are currently dominating the worldwide music scene, and based off this track they're going to be the next big guitar band to emerge from NY since the likes of The Strokes and Interpol. ... based off this track they're going to be the next big guitar band to emerge from NY since the likes of The Strokes and Interpol The pacing of the track is great, and even from the get-go there is a somewhat danceable backline that'll no doubt have you tapping your feet. The guitar sounds on "IN TOO DEEP" are so infectious, a blend of post-punk and alt-rock with the perfect amount of fuzz to give it more depth. Vocally strong too, you have to admire this emerging band for the smooth vocal approach to the track and its clean melodies.

Oasis: Their Enduring Impact on Music and Hints of a 2026/27 Tour

Few bands have left as profound a mark on modern rock as Oasis . Emerging in the early 1990s from Manchester, the group — fronted by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher — quickly rose to global fame with their signature blend of Britpop swagger, anthemic melodies, and unforgettable choruses. Today, decades after their debut, Oasis remain a cultural touchstone, their influence stretching across generations of indie and rock acts . The Oasis Sound and Legacy Oasis’ defining sound combined gritty guitar riffs, soaring vocals, and lyrics that balanced working-class grit with poetic ambition. Albums like Definitely Maybe (1994) and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? (1995) became instant classics, propelling the band into international superstardom. Tracks such as Wonderwall , Don’t Look Back in Anger , and Champagne Supernova are now timeless sing-alongs that have transcended the era they were created in. Their influence can be heard in countless bands that followed, from Arctic Monkeys...

The Origins of Indie Rock Music: From Underground Roots to Global Stages

Indie rock music is one of the most beloved and influential genres in modern music. Known for its DIY ethos, raw authenticity, and refusal to conform to mainstream industry norms, indie rock has evolved from underground beginnings into a global movement. But where did indie rock come from, and how did it grow into the genre we know today? What Does “Indie Rock” Mean? The term “indie” originally stood for independent . In the late 1970s and early 1980s, bands that weren’t signed to major record labels released their music through smaller independent labels . Over time, the word “indie” became less about the business model and more about the sound and attitude —raw, experimental, and often outside the mainstream. The 1970s: Punk and Post-Punk Influence Indie rock’s origins are deeply tied to the punk rock explosion of the mid-1970s. Bands like The Sex Pistols and The Clash proved that music didn’t need polished production or major backing to make an impact. Out of punk came post-punk ...
