New Sounds #50 April 28 2016




THE NSA - LONG BROWN HAIR
The first new material since 2014 by the Dundee three-piece, consisting of Nick Shane (vocals, guitar), Daniel Watt (bass) and Steven Tasker (drums), and coming from their second album 'Feverland', expected later this year. Upbeat, 90s style mod rhythms. Star rating: ***/5




JOHNNY SANDS - A FRIEND
Released last week, the richly evocative and haunting electro-pop third single from Liverpool-based Sands' upcoming debut album 'Films', due this summer on Baltic Records. Star rating: ****/5




PRISMA - PROPHET (TAKE A LOOK AT THE SKY)
Geneva-based alt-rock quartet share the punchy lead single with an electrio tinge, from their recent self-titled debut album. Star rating: ***/5




PLAUDITS - KINDNESS
Third upbeat track from the debut EP 'Hinterland', released this month. The self-produced electronic three-piece from Leicester (who Little Indie premiered here in January) create an interesting soundscape of electronic and organic, here with some angelic harmonies. Star rating: ***.5/5




FM-84 - DON'T WANT TO CHANGE YOUR MIND (feat. Ollie Wride)
Taken from the debut album 'Atlas' released this week, written by San Francisco-based producer Col Bennett and Brighton's Ollie Wride - the latter also providing the smooth, soulful vocals to partner the synth-wave beats. Star rating: ****/5
