A little bit Duke Special a little bit Just Mustard, Losing The Swing is the debut single from Goldbug, or as most of us know him the enigmatic Of All Living Things bassist Danilo Ward.

Greg Sol – Back2Back
Rather than worshipping the trappings of romance and sunshine, Sol falls lovingly into the fantasy of Miami.

Music fans have always worn the knowledge of obscure bands as a badge of honour on their sleeves. What’s even sweeter is when the band in question absolutely rips. Enter Guitar.

After 2023, when I went for one day and didn’t see a single new band, I resolved this year to do a small bit better. And I did – a very small bit better. I saw one new artist per day. Here’s the new bands I saw on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday...

Wrecking the Gaff with Unstuck

We visited @unstuckIE at home and lovingly followed them around the house posing some of the toughest questions they have faced as a band.

Unstuck have been pounding the pavement pretty hard over the last year and have quickly eked out a largely untouched corner of the Irish music scene for themselves. Here's why you should be listening...

In typical @Spearsideband fashion Trendsetters pushes the limit on how close you can get the vocals and the instrumental together and still be heard clearly.

@BeautyPageant_ debut EP is a brash, almost opulent, offering of gleaming indie pop tracks. Here's why you should be listening.

Word On The Street: For any other lineup I’m staying at home. The wettest July in years, four times more rain compared to this time last year but Thee UFO & Search Results are two of Ireland’s most unmissable acts on the club scene right now.

A working class band that’s become hugely successful probably shouldn’t be writing about the same things they did when the debuted 20 years ago.

But it’s also ok for them to say “maybe what made us good was our connection to those themes & without them we’ve come to a close” 3/3

[DerailedMag @MagDerailed]

We need to normalise successful bands graciously disbanding or taking indefinite hiatuses.

A band that had its finger on the pulse at its inception/comes from a working class background/is divisive and challenge etc but which slowly (often simply by being successful) 1/3

[DerailedMag @MagDerailed]

declines in quality aren’t necessarily bad for losing that spark. Often they’re just too far removed from where they started and what made that particular project exciting and compelling.
