#indierock #britpop #madchester #shoegaze #electronica ***single of the week***
manchester/uk alternative dance / electro-pop band Delphic return with their first new music in
12 years!
the amazing new single 'between forms' picks up right where their acclaimed debut album
'acolyte' (#8 on the official uk albums chart back in january 2010) left off - a stylish, dynamic wave of
dreamy indie electronica vibes!
fingers crossed we also get a third studio album from the lads
over the course of the year!
and now, let’s give them a proper welcome back and hit play on the new song!
'at sunset' is the latest single from up-and-coming coventry/uk indie rock / neo britpop / post punk band Colour TV.
following their return tune '¡baby!' from october last year, the new song is a bright, melodic indie pop cut driven by
jangly guitars and driving rhythms, carrying the vibe of britpop greats like Gene, Suede, Pulp and The Smiths, while lyrically it explores feeling stuck in your own head, caught in a cycle of inner turmoil and anxiety.
it was released on march 17 through tip top recordings.
p.s.
also, don’t miss the b-side 'spinning in your room', moving into a sparser, atmospheric vibe.
p.p.s.
think back to their awesome 'christopher’s halo' tune, that claimed #1 on our 2023 year-end singles chart!
arizona/us indie rock / shoegaze / dreampop / psychedelia trio Mute Swan have released their new album 'skin slip'
on march 6 through hit the north records.

'a land beyond' is the latest single from london/uk indie rave / alternative dance / electro pop duo Real Lies.
their 2025 lp 'we will annihilate our enemies'
was our #1 album of the year! the new track could easily have fit on that record, but it also works perfectly as a standalone release: hypnotic, sparkling techno once again paired with their melancholic, introspective vocals and euphoric club energy.
it was released on march 11 through tonal recordings ...
nottingham/uk indie rock / post punk trio Bloodworm have dropped the music video for their latest single 'alone in the dark'.
coming on the heels of the promising prior single 'bloodlust', the new tune is taken from the their debut ep 'blood & lust',

check out the fine 'rats in eden' via bandcamp, sounding like something straight out of
Ian’s ’90s roots, as if Pale Saints or Spoonfed Hybrid

Miki Berenyi Trio, the group led by the Miki, former vocalist and guitarist in
90s shoegaze legends Lush, singer/guitarist KJ McKillop of

strong late-career record from the indie maestro - full of solid songwriting
and emotional intensity!
