Check the vid out below Directed by Christopher Good (who’s also worked with Okkervil River and Perfume Genius), “Last You Heard of Me” finds the California-based band performing at an ill-fated dinner party complete with roller-skating maids, fire-eaters, dancing skeletons, and a murderous house...

rec-ing /rɛk’ɪŋ/ 1. put forward (music, artist) with approval as being suitable for a particular purpose or role. "George had been rec-ing some on-point wonk pop lately" What should I listen to today? It’s the burning question faced on a daily basis by the aurally-able.

That’s where a good set...

A journey – An amazing journey that started with a brief conversation outside a café in Enfield, North London. A journey that’s taken me on Rideouts, to club meetings and social events, and led to meet-ups with Mods all over the country. And a photographic journey that, as one Mod once said to me, “spread the love” about modern-day Mods. An education – I’ve always loved Mod culture. The style, the music, the lights and mirrors on the Vespas and...

It's no secret that we're big fans of Faith No More at TLE, so  it's always pleasing to see strong visual productions accompanying their delightfully angular noise. “This is one of those tracks that had to be a video, really, because it lends itself so much to visual imagery,” FNM bassist Bill Gould explains. “Given the song’s sense of Americana, it would have been easy to shoot this in Arizona or New Mexico, but having been to Macedonia several times,...

Nottingham’s Kagoule have shared the video for brand new single ‘Magnified’, and it's a bit odd. The video shows the three-piece shrunk into tiny 3-D model versions of themselves, in this playful yet sinister clip, directed by Dogbrain Videos. Currently on tour with Brighton’s The Magic Gang, Kagoule recently unveiled ‘Magnified’ as the first single following the release of their acclaimed 2015 debut album Urth.  Following their dates with The Magic Gang, they’ll hit the road with Manchester’s Spring King, culminating...
