New Music Review #008

Another ten songs for your listening pleasure!

April Towers - Get Recovered


With hints of eighties Depeche Mode, this dark and simple indie number has hints of much more under its surface. (6/10)

Banfi - Happy When You Go 


Though the chorus renders the song unradio-friendly the quirky fast-paced style at odds to the music and the buzz of the lyrics make it work. (6.5/10)

Bring Me The Horizon - Oh No



BMTH are back with this mid-tempo ode to falling out of love. It's verses help build up to a stronger chorus that should please fans and newbies alike. (6.5/10)

Hello Casanova - I'll Be Waiting



'I'll Be Waiting' is a well produced slice of indie-rock with a poppier, Biffy Clyro-like chorus. It's certainly a grower. (6/10)

Icona Pop - Brightside



Though not as huge as their previous singles 'Brightside' is a fun enough light-dance track. (6/10)


Jake Bugg - Put out the Fire



'Put Out The Fire' is not a huge departure from Jake's previous work so should please the fans, but it's a nice little simple stripped-back number. (6/10)

Matinée feat. Pier Ferrantini - Satellite




Matinée are back with this quirky indie number that ticks along quite nicely. It could do with something more hooky to lift it up, but it's a neat new track. (6/10)

Michael Bublé - I Believe in You



This time of year is stereotypically known as Bublé's time of year, and he possibly earns that crown with this touching, singable little pop ditty. (7/10)


The SSS - The One You Need




A neat little indie-rock number with a pleasing little chorus. It's not got a huge bomasticness to it but there's something about the style as it weaves in and out. (6/10)


Youth Club - Sorry


Youth Club are back with this nice little indie track with lyrics that are perhaps a bit perkier than the music, but the Caribbean feel to the production is nicely done. (6/10)
