I’d say a good third of bands that I cover are compared to the likes of Nirvana or The Melvins within their little PR seller. Although most do somewhat earn the comparison, none quite to the deserved extent as Forever In Debt do.

Listening to this track, I completely forgot I was listening to a British band. Take that as you will.

The last month has seen us check out some pretty outlandish, abstract and noisy releases, so it’s strange to say that Living In A Radio City has felt refreshing to listen to, considering it offers little more than any other modern day alternative artist out there.

What is it with bands and horses these days?

I have mentioned a few times about being drawn into a review by a title or back story; this one pretty much tops everything to date…
