-

Artwork by Sam Hayles Scotland's Alt Metal Act A Ritual Spirit has released Elements I,  the first of a two-part album, via their own record label, Disposable Noise. Produced by Bryan Ramage at Ramage Productions, this is the band's third release. The six tracks run just over 27 minutes and focus on the isolation and anxieties of the pandemic. Formed in 2013, the quartet has formed an ardent fan base throughout the UK, supporting acts like Warrior Soul, and performing at Bloodstock Festival. The band combines angsty rock with a heavy metal guitar sound. The EP begins with the optimistic message of 'Zion', a track with a groovy and heavy riff, soft pop vocals and a reggae-infused chorus that leaves a pleasant start for the emerging band. This leads to the menacing drum intro of 'Underneath', a song that feels profoundly influenced by the NU- Metal era. The soft vocals stretch over sharp riffs and basslines. The EP does start resembling a sample of early 2000s co

  Eclectic quartet Fonzy and Company  released their third EP Touche  last week. Produced by Innersound Audio, the four-track EP combines Indie. Pop and Alternative elements to create a burst of energetic rock for the listener. Formed in 2019 by lead vocalist/guitarist Fonzy Armour as a solo recording project, Armour decided he needed some company upon feeling impressed with the material recorded. Long-time friends Olivia Jury and Sam Bennett joined on vocals and bass, respectively. The trio soon released two EPS', Last Birth and Is It Me? to critical acclaim, garnering 1500 worldwide radio plays. The trio went through several lineups until they decided three was a company and they added lead guitarist/vocalist Lauren Hannah and bassist Sam Lane last year as permanent members. The EP opens with the anthemic 'The Kids Stay Home', a feel-good slab of pop-punk with a raw energetic feel and bouncing beats that set the feeling for the remainder of the release. Next up is the h

Song of the Day- Villins- Bodies

Photo courtesy of Mark Doyle Glam/Disco rock duo Villins returns with the new single 'Bodies', released today (Friday 3rd June). The first track since last year's debut EP 'The Power'. Formed in 2016, the duo consists of vocalist Jesyka and guitarist Kareem 'Jesus' Devlin. They combine dark, gothic dance beats with powerful pop melodies. 'Bodies' is an example of this with strong production values and commercial edge. Jesyka's reflective tone is accompanied by soaring keyboards. The sad ambience is symbolic of the intimacy of the song. The multi-layered vocals provide sympathy to the listener as the song reaches its climax with searing guitar leads from 'Jesus'. Overall, Villins continue to make friends with their style of disco beats and catchy pop music that are inclined to make your bodies sway. Words by Anselm Anderson.
