Bursting hard out from the scene in Manchester, it's Red Light Factory with the new tune "Manson Song" getting released literally a few days ago. The single is the act's debut and goes hard, and even within the first few seconds, I could hear this 'Britpop' influence with the drumbeat giving me a quick Blur 'Song 2' sorta feel.
... a dark, scuzzy alt-rock debut packed with Britpop energy.
Guitrar-wise this is huge, and with the main sound on offer giving me this dark and gloomy Arctic Monkeys sound - even the vocals to me sound like their 'Humbug' album in places.
"Manson Song" is a very scuzzy alt-rock anthem that's no doubt going to be turning a lot of heads in the Greater Manchester scene, and for good reasons too. I can see other acts in the genre quivering in fear as if this is what their debut is like imagine what a whole EP's worth of cuts will sound like!
