MEET: MESMER DISCIPLES
Hailing from the DIY capital of the North, Leeds band Mesmer Disciples are hard to slip into any particular niche, cock your ear left and they’re a full psyched out Cramps influenced garage band, cock it back the other way and they have gritty Northern sound not too far removed from The Fall, turn around …
Album Review: Twin Peaks – Sweet ’17 Singles
I love Twin Peaks the TV show more than I love damn fine coffee or the best cherry pie in the Tri-Counties. But there is also Twin Peaks the band, who have been gigging since 2010.

Album Review: Night Beats – Who Sold My Generation
