Black Lips bring the intensity on their latest single 'So Far Gone', a timeless fuzzy garage rock anthem. Its dense layers of driving, grunge-soaked guitars propelling us through its three minute duration. Drifting between moments of shimmering percussion and knotty, charged guitar lines, Black Lips offer a single which is simultaneously detailed and faithful to their raw, distinct rock-and-roll influence
'Diary of a Candle' is a consoling, melodic suite – with tender woodwinds and richly-layered strings touched by the hazy atmospheres of 1970s/1980s films. Its understated heart-on sleeve romanticism follows the rhythm of nature: it bends in the breeze, drifts through the air, and settles on the ground. The ambiance is not an escapism, but the re-focusing of a lens through which humans are no longer the protagonists. Instead, a landscape's intimate details become the central figures

Acidic, acerbic, anarchic; Tropical Fuck Storm's command of wordplay, undercut by snarling guitars, pulsing rhythms, and explosive salvos, populates a hinterland between light and dark. The vocal interplay between Liddiard and the soaring harmonies of Kitschin and Dunn creates a teetering balancing act that’s intensified by the frantic narratives that evolve from their collective psyche
