Lessens-
A Bristol-based three-piece formed in 2019, Lessens’ ethos of reverb-drenched reductivism serves up brooding quiet and haunting melancholy. Spacious textures traverse the gamut from sombre to seismic, with sporadic eruptions of vitriol and almost accidental happiness. This ethos is inspired not just by the ceaseless noise of modern life, but by the tension between beauty, fragility and anxiety. It’s about clarity, simplification and sparsity. What emerges from that framework falls somewhere between post-punk and post-rock.

You Need Ghosts-You Need Ghosts are a post-punk/alt-noise four-piece, who have been creating a buzz around their hometown of Bristol with their blisteringly energetic, 25-minute gigs. Think clipped guitars that are looking for trouble, escape-velocity drums, ferociously fuzz-fuelled bass and vocals full of blaze and brimstone. They recently released their debut single, Work and Movement (https://youtu.be/kxyo6MdNSlA), with a second single due to be released in December. You can find You Need Ghosts on Facebook @youneedghosts and Instagram @youneedghostsband.


Muscle Vest-
Taking influence from bands such as Pissed Jeans, Melvins, Mclusky, The Jesus Lizard and Whores, London noise-punks Muscle Vest continue to reflect the struggle of the average person against an exploitative system within a crumbling state.
