Brit-pop is on the rise once again and this was a brilliant showcase from two of the best.

We've been following Stereophonics since the early days (did they really form in 1992!) and they always seem to come up with a fresh approach to their music. Here's what we thought of their new album, 'Make ‘em Laugh, Make ‘em Cry, Make ‘em Wait'.

This was a triple whammy of hardcore in Manchester as Heriot closed off their UK tour.

Averse to the stereotypical tropes of progressive music, Istanbul-hailed Siyah Tavsan delivers instead a succinct and fresh outlook of how they visualise progressive music to be. While fans of Western post-punk and progressive rock will find familiar elements, ‘Metropolites’ offers a distinct lens of where Turkish underground music is headed – globally aware, genre-fluid, and emotionally fearless, this is a voice speaking from the overlooked alleys of Istanbul, but resonating far beyond.

Following the broad cultural nostalgia for all things 90s, it isn’t surprising that grungy, showgazy alt-rock is making a comeback. One of the earliest pioneers of this niche is Superheaven. Reuniting after a six-year hiatus in 2022, they’re releasing their first full-length in a decade – 'Superheaven'.

The track is taken from their upcoming sophomore album 'There’s A Whole World Out There' - check out the video here.
