Lightning Dust - Loaded Gun

Video released July 16th 2013

Lightning Dust are one of those bands I always feel are unfairly overlooked in the UK, while I'm sure they have their fair share of fans here I don’t really know anyone who knows them which is a real shame. Loaded Gun is their new track taken from their new album, Fantasy, the first new release in four years and as usual it’s a beautiful. Amber Webber’s voice is spot on; she delivers such delicate vocals which gives the song a distinctive mark while working in perfect harmony with the music. The band have taken a slightly different direction with their new material, it’s slightly more spacey, not to the extreme Tom DeLonge went to after putting Blink 182 on hiatus but a definite sound has been created. Overall I like the change of direction, I consider this band to be one of the only bands out there making something a lot different, it’s indie at its finest.

Itch - Life is Poetry

Video released July 5th 2013

Itch follows up previous solo tracks such as 'Homeless Romantic' and 'Best Shot' with a new spoken word piece. The minimalist video is recorded face on in one shot and show's the London born punk/poet/rapper speaking about his music, other people's music and his reason for making music. The song show's that Itch still has the same passion as he did in the beginning of his career the song follows in the footsteps of previous spoken word pieces such as 'Five Bottles Of Shampoo' and 'The Great Wall Street of China'. This song proves that Itch still has it and we've got a lot to look forward to with his upcoming solo album.
