His range included several pots and pans, water carriers, lids, a slow cooker and a stainless steel carving tray. Passer-by Jon Wakefield, 35, stopped to film the scene as a crowd of onlookers gathered...

Last month Com Truise – aka Seth Haley – announced Iteration, his first new album in 6 years, due for release on June 16th via Ghostly International. Today, along with a string of new UK & European live date announcements, he follows previously shared single 'Memory' with his second single “Isostasy.” As its name implies, the track has a spaciousness to it, as it seemingly floats through the sonic world Com Truise has built over the years. Listen below: "Repetition is a form...

Matthew Mole of Scanners has a new album as ARVI and not only is it rather good, he's also given TLE Music a sneak preview of ARVI's debut album The Law - see below, as well as the first video to Anything You Want. The album features many of the accomplished, lush melodies of Scanners' dark transatlantic pop, but in more contemplative, acoustic compositions. "This album is very different to Scanners in that the sound is much more acoustic," Matthew told TLE Music. "It's softer and...

Fyre Festival, the Bahamas-bound, Insta-model endorsed music fest is officially a disaster. Touted as  a 'cultural moment created from an alchemic blend of music, art, and food', patrons were greeted by a festival site that wouldn't look out of place in Children of Men. The promised A-list models and boutique tents in reality turned out to be wild dogs and hastily-assembled emergency shelter, all for tasty ticket prices upwards of 10K. Evidently, Twitter has latched onto the catastrophe and run with...

Only Echoes Remain are a London-based 4-piece that blend the classic 'wall of guitar' sound of This Will Destroy You with post-metal elements a la Russian Circles/If These Trees Could Talk, the atmospheric prog-y math of Karnivool with the emotions of Sigur Ros or Yndi Halda. Debut album The Exigent is set for release on June 16th. Recorded at the Abbey Road Institute The Exigent is very much a concept record with a full narrative running throughout. ‘Aurora’ is the...
