Stay Lunar shares the huge new single, "Pull The Rug"

Since we last checked in with Stay Lunar they've been on the rise, and the latest track from the Bristol outfit is titled "Pull The Rug". ... a dreamy alt-rock wave of hazy vocals and soaring guitars - setting the tone for a standout 2026 EP release . @helenarosecoma (on Instagram) This new offering is a dreamy and atmospheric take on the alt-rock genre, with soaring guitars wallowing away in the background and some hazy vocals taking centre-stage. When the chorus comes, the track feels incredible, and even on the first play I felt taken aback with how powerful it is, it's so incredibly upbeat we feel like it'll end up on a playlist of yours in moments of the track finishing. If this is the sound Stay Lunar is creating now, then I honestly feel like they can be headlining festival stages in no time. This track also acts as the opening track of their upcoming 2026 EP, so be sure to follow them on their soc...

SIRENS share their impressive debut single, "Envy"

Dundee -based duo SIRENS made a striking entrance with their debut single last Friday. Titled " Envy " it's a dream-pop release steeped in atmosphere, emotion, and cinematic depth. ... a dreamy, atmospheric release that glows with emotion and cinematic beauty. Even from the get-go, it invites you in with reverb-washed guitars , airy ambience , and haunting vocals that feel both intimate and out of this world gorgeous. A rather stripped-back song in terms of structure, it still manages to capture your ears, and even on the first listen for us, we were taken aback. The cascading percussion , the sustained beauty of the guitar tones and the shimmering production is quite the showcase for the duo. It's an enchanting first single that positions SIRENS as one of Scotland 's most exciting emerging acts, so be sure to follow them if you want to be blown away. Want us to hear your music? Cli...

Hovercraft reveals their new AA-side single, "New Pine Overcoat/Angel"

Hailing from Grimsby is Hovercraft , and the band has recently revealed their new single, " New Pine Overcoat / Angel " - yep it's an AA-side release . Lost demos and new magic. Hovercraft's new AA-side single is 90s nostalgia reimagined for today. The release is mesmerisng, with the first track, " New Pine Overcoat ", being a resurrected track from 1996 , back then, it was in demo form, and it's been given a new lease of life. If you thought that the 90s sound on this was strong, then there's your reason, but it still has a very fresh tone to it, much like a moody Holly Humberstone track perhaps. The flipside " Angel " is also one of those long-lost demos , and this cut offers more of the same. A charming intro welcomes you in before soothing vocals get draped over it. It's a bit more on the relaxing side of things and less shoegaze , but once more, we are astounded that this is a 30-year-old track. I just feel bad as if...

Rejection Ratio reveals their nostalgic debut single, "Love is Like Heaven"

Rejection Ratio not long ago dropped their debut single, " Love is Like Heaven ", and it's a big new tune that brings back the very best that the 80's and 90's have to offer with alt music . ... blending 80s alt vibes , jangly guitars , and soulful vocals into a must-hear indie gem. Vocally, I'm getting early-Bjork sounds mixed with some Shoegaze moments that help to bring it all together. The guitars on this are jangly and direct, with a drumbeat that'll have you tapping along without a care in the world. There are echoes of Blondie here, with some charm that got Debbie Harry and Blondie to fame. The band haven't uploaded this yet to Spotify , which makes discovering them even more of a treat - so be sure to head to their YouTube below and subscribe to them. "Love is Like Heaven" is a compelling introduction to a band unafraid to wea...

All the Young return with their anthemic single, "Something More"

Stoke-on-Trent stalwarts All the Young return with their third single of the year. Titled " Something More " it's a soaring indie-rock anthem that is sure to capture your ears on the first play. ... a punchy indie-rock anthem bursting with 90s flair, Britpop energy, and unstoppable optimism. The way the track starts reminds me a lot of The Enemy in places, with the upbeat nature and the jangly guitar. The vocals are downright amazing on this, with plenty of power behind them to entice you to a sing-along. On the single, the sounds on show are a blend of 90s rock, Britpop and post-punk revival , with all of them being given equal opportunities to shine. The track ends up being an addictive one that you'll want to play over and over again. Speaking about the track lead vocalist Ryan says - " ... "Something More" is about rising above all the negativity in the world and believing that we can do better. Sometimes w...

3 Year Project deliver their indie gem, "Feel Love"

Australian outfit 3 Year Project has recently revealed their new indie gem, titled " Feel Love ". With four singles already out in the wild, it's now going to get their name into the heads of plenty more fans. ... bright guitars, soft-rock vocals, and Glastonbury -ready ambition. One thing that hit me from the very start was how bright and upbeat it was, teh soaring guitar was a surefire way to get me on board. Vocally, it's very soft-rock, with tones comparable to the likes of Ash and the more indie sounds of the British scene in the mid-2000s. With the band's ambition and talent, they hint at their aspirations to light up stages like Glastonbury in 2027, and with sounds like this, who can blame them? If I were you, I'd keep a close eye on Triple J as they might take off at any moment. Want us to hear your music?

MERTDER drops the new protest anthem, "Glass"

London-based MERTDER 's new single " Glass " is the type of track that will hit you with full force from the very get-go. On this cur you'll hear it be very fierce, with a bass-driven burst of alternative electronic rock from the very off. ... a fierce, bass-driven alt-electro protest anthem reflecting political frustration with industrial edge. The politically charged vocals come in shortly after, and it's then that you'll hear the very alt-rock track that is infused with quirky electronic textures to give it a very industrial feel. Speaking about the chorus, "I can see through you like glass", MERTDER mentions - "it mirrors the cyclical nature of political rhetoric and public frustration . It's a protest anthem , holding up a mirror to the illusion of transparency between governments and citizens." With the UK seemingly at odds with itself once more, we will always need acts to speak up and share their frustration ...

Ventrelles release their new song, "It's in the Papers"

Ventrelles return with their Britpop -infused new single, " It's in the Papers ", and the shimmering new offering has plenty to shout about. ... a shimmering, Verve-tinged Britpop gem that proves Manchester has a new melodic powerhouse. One thing that took me back to the late 90s was the cinematic feeling surrounding the song, and thanks to the strings, I felt like a young kid once more. It's not quite Oasis but more The Verve with how mellow and shimmering it sounds when it enters your ears for the first time. The sun-soaked guitars are utterly divine, and even on the gloomiest of days I can see this being able to brighten anyone's day. Following the impressive UK chart success of their previous single, " Emily's Song ", this track reinforces Ventrelles' reputation as one of the North West 's most consistent and authentic melodic pop-rock outfits - move over Blossoms , we have a new band to fanboy over. Want us to hea...

Tom Leonard shares the nostalgic new song, "What Has Been and What Will Be"

Following on from his previous single, "The Fathoms Deep Pool Of Love", Tom Leonard is back with his new sweeping track, "What Has Been and What Will Be". ... a sweeping six-minute blend of jangly Britpop nostalgia and shoegaze haze. The new offering is nearly six minutes long, but once you're past the initial 10 seconds of the track, we feel that you'll be as hooked as we were. A jangly tone will welcome you in with a warm embrace, and with Tom's nostalgic vocal tones coming shortly after, it will make you feel like the heydays of the Manchester 'britpop' scene . The sound is rather shoegaze-driven in places, but that lingering 90s sound is hard to shake, and with the likes of Oasis making a BIG comeback in the past 12 months, this sound is high in demand. The bold new song acts as a preview of his upcoming album, with it showcasing an evolution of Leonard's earlier sound. If the album is half as good as this, it mi...

Jane Honor shares her hypnotic new tune, "Bloodhungry"

Based out of Los Angeles , singer-songwriter Jane Honor has recently unveiled her hypnotic new single, " Bloodhungry ", and you'll feel that seductive tone from the get-go as it opens up with moody vocal hooks backed up with a cinematic sheen supporting it. ... a hypnotic, cinematic indie-rock slow-burn that blends moody dream-pop shadows with Radiohead -esque percussion As soon as the track gets going, the percussion reminds me a lot of Radiohead in places with how grand it feels, all the while with cinematic backing vocals, horns and jangly guitars adorning it too. The sound to me is more on the darker side of the indie-rock spectrum, but with an underpinning dream-pop bite to help bring it to life. "Bloodhungry" is very intimate too, with plenty of depth that will help transform you from a casual fan into one that'll happily delve into Jane's other tracks. Want us to hear your music?
