Tellison – Contact! Contact!

Tellison have started to create something of a buzz around themselves recently, and with the help of some higher profile support slots under their belts, perhaps the timing of release for this debut album, whilst frustratingly drawn out for some, may have come at just the right

October File – Monuments

Whilst standing here, drowning in a sea of faux-pretentiousness, I was wondering what my day would end up like if I suddenly had a wave of fucking rock slapped across my face. It’s always nice to have a band come along and make you remember that music is –
