Small Bands You Need To Check Out...

 So, I've done a few of these before and I thought it'd fit in perfectly with small band week, so here we go! I'm going to be talking about a few bands I've handpicked that I'd love for you to check out, and they are all on the Small Band Appreciation playlist. All artists on here will have been featured no more than once. A lot of these will be people you've never heard me talk of unless it's in a weekly what I'm listening to! So, let's get into this! 

High Wire; 

High Wire is a pop-punk band from Chicago. Back in the day, there used to be a band called Bonfires, and I was obsessed with them! I loved them with my enter existence, and High Wire sound so similar to Bonfires so I pretty much fell in love with them instantly. Good Enough, Redcard and Some Kind of Miracle are my absolute favourites! Cannot get enough of those tracks, and they've all made it into my top 10 most listened to tracks of the month. Honestly, I love this band so much, and I'd highly recommend checking them out. 
Recommendations - Some Kind of Miracle, Good Enough, Redcard

Carrington; 

Now, Carrington shares a member with one of my favourite band's Nautical Mile. Caleb is in both bands, and they'd actually came up on my Discover Weekly. Then I thought they reminded me a bit of Nautical Mile and then I found out Caleb was in Carrington so it all made sense! Honestly, I'm really digging this band and I think they're incredible. There's a lot of talent in this band an I'd highly recommend going and checking them out! 
Recommendations - Reverse and Reassurance

Decay; 

I like this band that much that I've even gone and bought Decay merch, and I think Decay are such are an incredible band. They have some super incredible and gripping songs. They really are a phenomenal band! I love them so much, and I feel like they're a band you definitely need to check out. I was actually recommended them by Ben and I trust Ben's recommendations so I knew they'd be a decent band to check out, and I really just love them! Their album is such a solid album and it's honestly insane!
Recommendations - Staring At The Sun and Misery


Dead Bundy;

Now, Dead Bundy aren't a band that I'm as enthusiastic about as the others, however! They're still good! I love their song She Fucks Me is such an intense track, and I just think they're great! They're songs definitely pack a punch, and they're super energetic. I do think they're insane, and I would highly recommend you going and checking them out. 
Recommendations - She Fucks Me and Locked In A Cage

Small Talk.; 

Now, I have actually done a post on Small Talk. before, but I thought I'd mention them in this, because they actually haven't been featured in one of these. Now, they're super lovely, and their song is so refreshing because it isn't overly refined. It's a bit rougher, and just a little bit edgier. They're got some incredible songs, and they've just released an acoustic EP a little over a week ago. I love them, and I'd highly recommend going and checking them out! 
Recommendations - Hawthorne and I Left My Hoodie In Your Car Just So I Could Call You

Misplaced; 

Now, for the last band, I'll mention, I have also done a post on them, it's Misplaced. If you know me, you know if it's a Scottish band I'm probably going to pay a little bit more attention to it, and especially Glaswegian bands! Misplaced is a Glaswegian pop-punk band! That's a big yes from me! They're so intense and energetic, and loud and obnoxious. I absolutely love them! They're such an incredibly talented band and I cannot recommend them enough! 
Recommendations - idk why i try and fuck that, i'm alright

Wishful Thinking by Near Mrs

Welcome back to another blog post! Today I'm going to be talking about Near Mrs' latest track Wishful Thinking which only dropped today (11th February). Although this song has only just dropped, I was kindly sent the track a few weeks back by the lads in Near Mrs and as always, I'm bringing you my thoughts on it!  Now, I can tell you this track is incredible, I thought that the first time I heard it, and I still think that now. This track absolute slaps, and that chorus is extraordinary! The vocals, the lyrics, the guitar, the drums, the bass, everything about this track is a massive yes! I'm a firm believer that Near Mrs are one of the best local bands, and this track is proof of that, as if the past 4 singles haven't been enough proof. Honestly, such an incredible band and this song is just something else!  The riffs, the intro, the outro, the change within the sound, those bits that make your brain go "oh shit, they really did that". When I say you all

Rock & Roll Is My Religion by Dirty Rose

  Welcome back to the blog, and today I'm featuring a new band to the blog! This band is Dirty Rose. Now, they reached out to me at the end of last year and asked me if I'd be interested in doing some content on their new album when it dropped, and I mean, this is me. When do I ever turn bands down? Anyway, so after me trying to get my brain to write this earlier than I have, we're finally here!  The album is titled Rock & Roll is My Religion, and it dropped on the 21st of January, and Dirty Rose are on a mission to properly bring back rock and roll! So if you too, are a believer that we need to resurrect rock and roll, and bring it back then Dirty Rose could be the band for you!  I really didn't know what to expect when I first heard Dirty Rose. I thought when they were saying rock and roll, it was going to be a lot less rock orientated than it is. However. I was pleasantly surprised when I heard Dirty Rose, and hearing their cover of The Rock Show by blink-182 was

Drown by Cherry Bleach

  Welcome back to the blog, and as you may be able to tell, I am welcoming another new band to the blog! Today's band is Cherry Bleach! Fun fact, just before they reached out to me and asked if I wanted to work with them, I was actually contemplating dropping them a message to see if they wanted to work with me. Anyway, they reached out and asked if I wanted to work with them and do a post on their new single Drown, and of course, this is me so I said yes!  Now, Cherry Bleach are a 4 piece psychedelic grunge band from Aberdeen, Scotland. They consist of;  Alisha Wilkie -Vocals and Rhythm Guitar Ewan Watson - Bass Thomas Reid - Lead Guitar George Hudson - Drums So, on Friday 29th of January, Cherry Bleach released their latest track, Drown! Now, not to generalise but songs with drown in the title tend to be pretty solid.  So, this track is a lot softer than I expected, I was expecting this to be a lot more aggressive and in your face, but it's actually a lot softer, and quite po
