Weekly News Round Up – 06/04/14

By Charlie Mock

If you missed them this week, here are just a few of the new releases to get stuck into.

Cardiff’s Goodtime Boys are streaming their latest track over at DIY.

Focusing on frontman Alexander Pennie’s ‘frustration with the world’, this perfect piece of post-hardcore delight is one not to miss.

Check the stream out over at DIY.

Fireworks have released ‘Oh, Common Life’ from their upcoming bonus acoustic EP. It’s all you could want and more. Have a listen via the player below.

Deaf Havana dropped the new video for the latest single from ‘Old Souls.’ ’22,’ taken from the band’s third full-length, shows the six-piece pop-rockers doing what they do best and more. Check it out below.

Cloud Nothings have released the video for their first single from the new record, ‘I’m Not Part Of Me’. The video – directed by Ryan Manning – takes you inside the world of a teenage sleepover, and it’s every bit as satirical as you’d expect.

playlounge are streaming their debut album, ‘pilot’, in full via DIY. The album, following their two earlier EPs, features 9 original tracks and a cover of William’s ‘South of the Border’ – a band cited as one of playlounge’s favourites.

Head over to DIY to hear the record in full. It is well worth your time.
