about

On their debut album, Death And The Maiden craft a shadowy sound world, filled with melancholic synth arpeggios, reverb-drenched guitars, and sighing vocal melodies. The combination is both hypnotic and devastating, exploring themes of love, loss, and decay, wrapped in tactile electro-acoustic languor. A party record for heartbroken romantics.

“The combination of drum machines, amniotic synth wash and guitars evoke select Hacienda-era Factory bands and the Sheffield Sound (think Section 25 or Chris & Cosey), while Lucinda King’s haunting, reverb-drenched vocals generate an incantatory power...” [The Corner]

Some Kind Of Eden
by Dear Time's Waste

Everything Claire Duncan does as the ever-morphing Dear Time's Waste has been remarkable - melodic, unsettling dream-pop with a novelist's eye for detail. Fishrider Records

Fazerdaze EP
by Fazerdaze

This EP from Fazerdaze (Amelia Murray) is unfussy DIY indie-pop perfection. Part pure melodic pop, part beautiful weary existential sigh with a hint of early Jesus & Mary Chain, fuzz & reverb tamed. Fishrider Records
go to album
Mother Of Gloom
by Emily Fairlight

A glorious album of dark alternative country-folk. Fairlight’s ageless voice simultaneously beautiful and terrifying, possessed of a resonant vibrato and smooth and tough as weathered teak. Fishrider Records

Guitars float on the shoreline of youth, one hand holding the delight, one hand holding the torment. ‘Baltimore’, ‘Delphine’, ‘Vesper II’, ‘Days Of Being Wild’, magical lo-fi Pop beauties shoot through the sky like Mordecai and Margaret chasing shooting stars on their Vespas, and when they are out of sight you’ll be reaching for the play button faster than Burroughs reaching for his stash.
