Now youre at Uni, there will be countless opportunities to get dow
n to your nearest
venue to check out some of the bands coming to town. Here is our pic
k of the best new
bands, so you can say yeah, I saw em first, I was down at the front, man.
...
Former members of Joe Lean & The Jing
Jang Jong got back together, bought
some paisley shirts and started
making 60's psych inspired shoegaze
stuff. It's all extremely good, and
they rather aptly supported the
Horrors earlier this year. This lot
will probably get pretty big, so make
sure you head out to see them when you
get a chance!

Alessi Laurent-Marke is a writer of
sweet, simple and honest songs
reminiscent of Belle And Sebastian or
The White Stripe's old acoustic
stuff. What's more, according to
Wikipedia her dad was one of the
producers behind Shooting Stars and
Snuff Box so you at least owe it to him
to go to all her gigs.

It's unavoidable that
Savages will get a lot of
comparisons to Joy
Division because of
their trebley post punk
bass, tight drum patterns
and the lead singer's Ian
Curtis-esque haircut.
Another thing they have
in common with JD is
their tight, super-
humanly energetic live
shows, which is even more
impressive when you
consider that they've
hardly been together for
a year. Their single
Husbands is well worth a
listen...

Electro duo Stubborn Heart have taken
on the near herculean task of
bringing an emotional edge to the
macho world of dubstep, with their
self proclaimed electronic soul
from the heart". The results sound
blippy and emotion wrenching, a bit
like Thom Yorke's solo stuff. Or if
you imagine Hurts having a sexy tango
with Skrillex.

Before Aluna Francis and George Reid decided to combine names and
musical forces they were involved in high maintenance electro and
math rock outfits respectfully. Their joint venture consists of much
simpler melodic pop tunes sung over some super smart R'n'B
production work. The pair have embraced the modern American
mainstream in all its glory and set it back down in an interesting
direction. AlunaGeorgewww.alunageorge.com

Theme Park's rare style of melodic
funk-rock is quickly earning them a
lot of attention. The popular
comparison is to Talking Heads, which
is completely fair on tracks like
'Milk' with its scratchy guitar and
simple keyboard melodies. Theyre on
tour at the moment, make sure you catch
them on the dates that arent sold out!

Awesome electro-pop love songs with a
real icey, dark edge. Citizens! have
all the restraint and stylistic
prowess of the best 80s post-punk
groups and if nothing else,
danceability. They have a handful of
UK dates in September, before
buggering off on tour around the world
so we wholeheartedly recommend
catching them when you get the chance.

This hotly tipped trio produce a
beautiful minimalist sound with
hugely affecting vocals courtesy of
their singer Elena Tonra. They've
been in Abbey Road Studios working on
their forthcoming debut, and going
off what little has been released so
far it's going to be something
special.

The music of Rough Trade's Palma
Violets has been scarce throughout
the year but luckily they've been
touring relentlessly so you're bound
to see one of their chaotic live shows
before you hear a record. They often
play in their PJs and few months back
they were also arrested in Liverpool
for breaking into a helter skelter. If
they can stay out of jail long enough
to record their debut then it will
definitely be worth listening to.Palma Violetswww.facebook.com/palmaviolets
Winner of Sideline
Magazine's 'Face The
Beat' Competition, this
is a manic amalgamation
of influences which
results in some startling
and catchy tracks.

With huge vibes of that grungey West
coast lo-fi sound, Splashh could well
be Britain's answer to Wavves. Come
to think of it even their names are
quite similar, which is kind of
fitting given that both bands eschew
originality in favour of being really
loud, getting wasted and just being
awesome in general.

Storybooks are a six
piece band who play indie
r o c k w i t h a n o l d
fashioned sincerity
rarely seen these days.
Lead singer Kristofer
Harris has an excellent
melancholy tinged voice
which works a treat on
their quieter numbers.
