PLAYLIST: TLE Top 100 Tracks of 2017

Are you bloody stuffed with Christmas dinner? We’re bloody stuffed with Christmas dinner. And there’s more to come, too. While the bubble ‘n’ squeak sort of gurgles away in a pan for a bit we at TLE thought we’d gather our favourite tracks of 2017 into one handy playlist for your listening pleasure. If you’ve been hiding in your room for the last year with your fingers wedged in your ears, emerging only to scream at your mum to stop...

WIN: Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes Brixton Show Setlist

The final show on the Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes Modern Ruin tour run at the O2 Brixton was an absolute barnstormer. We should know, we were there to grab some snaps on behalf of Sailor Jerry and we can tell you - total carnage. If you were there - congrats, you probably witnessed one of the best live shows of 2017, right? TLE have been lucky enough to come into possession of Franks' personal setlist from the night, which is both...

GALLERY: Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes

Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes O2 Brixton Academy Support: Vukovi, Basement If it was still in any doubt after his first record finally ended its run last winter, Frank Carter has surely solidified his position with tour two as one of the best frontmen working today. His performance with The Rattlesnakes at the O2 Brixton - the final show on the Modern Ruin tour - is a triumph of visceral rock 'n' roll. With melody and swagger, as well as the hardcore...

TLE Meets – Moulettes

Ecclectic art rockers Moulettes have announced an extensive UK/Irish jaunt throughout December, encompassing 18 shows and bringing a rapturous conclusion to their two-year Preternatural tour which has taken the group across Europe and Canada. The band will be performing at Cadogan Hall, London on Friday.

What can fans expect on your upcoming tour? Any...

Glasgow’s Dialects release debut album Because Your Path Is Unlike Any Other

It's been over a year since TLE were last in touch with Scottish post rockers Dialects, when the group were busy taking apart the stage at Arctangent with some fierce as hell set of expansive instrumental. At that time the quartet had an EP to their name 'L.T.K.L.T.L', and one seriously tight session at the Audiotree studios in Chicago. Just before their set, guitarists Conor and Steven were kind enough to sit down with us in the ATG press area...

PLAYLIST: Best of NOVEMBER 2017

Just as the sun's rays dim with each passing day, the Winter Solstice pacing a grim march ever closer with each rotation of Earth on its frigid axis - November got DARK. Look at this lot! The new Rolo Tomassi track - truly a beast of graveyard-slinking synths and Eva Spence's inimitably howl. Converge are back with The Dusk In Us with all their metalcore muscle flayed away to reveal the noise rock sinew beneath. Even Sufjan has been Drawn...

Album Review: Jim White, Waffles, Triangles and Jesus

They say one of the things that inspires a nation's folk-law and fairy tales is the composition of its forests. Germany's Black Forest, known for inspiring Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty, has a slightly dark and sinister feel to them which is reflected in stories by the Brothers Grimm, whereas British forests, which have a mythical feel, inspire tales such as the Chronicles of Narnia, the Lord of the Rings and Robin Hood. The parallel came to mind listening to Jim...

TLE MEETS – Meadowlark

Bristol duo Meadowlark are out on tour and about to roll through the capital! Since the release of Postcards back in June, Meadowlark have had a busy summer of UK festivals and are currently gliding across the UK on a gentle wave of melodic pop. Dan and Kate took the time to say hello to TLE ahead of their show in London on Saturday (the Islington, be there). We talk their whirlwind of a debut, hair-raising live reception and the...

Album Review: Beans on Toast, Cushty

Is there a more “2017” opening to an album than “the world is dying, shit is getting serious”? It’s hard to think of one, but then given that this is the second album in as many months that prophesises the crumbling of civilisation perhaps this is the new normal. With vast sections of the World at loggerheads with each other, the media stoking fear and mass surveillance being rationalised by increasingly sporadic acts of terrorism it’s increasingly looking as though...
