Stratford Rise
Stratford Rise is a Belfast-based noise-rock quartet known for their explosive live shows, experimental sound, and genre-bending style, blending harsh noise with melodic pop and jazz elements. They released their self-titled debut EP in 2025, featuring singles like "Gunshow" and "World's Fair," which garnered critical acclaim and support from BBC Radio 6 Music. The band's sound is often described as a visceral, theatrical experience reminiscent of bands like Gilla Band, The Jesus Lizard, and This Heat
Pushbike
pushbike are emo power pop ffo: teenage fanclub & capnjazz
Why Horses?
"Why Horses? are a brand new five-piece collective channelling post-punk grit, post-disco rhythm, and dance-punk urgency into something raw, romantic, and completely their own.
Loud, weird, and wired with poetic energy, their sound pulses with tension and release—equal parts intimacy and chaos"
Newbuild
newbuild are a five piece band formed in late 2024, drawing influence from the electronics of the 90s, dream pop and noise.
described by pindrop zine as 'hyper-rock', they have developed their sound through unrelenting live shows across london and brighton.
The Scuttlers
A four-piece art rock band operating out of the DIY Bristol scene. The Scuttlers have technical playing mixed with loose fast flourishes with a focus on combining traditional songwriting with the experimental. They are known for a unique and unpredictable stage performance with a one-of-a-kind frontman who has gained a wide variety of comparisons from Ian Curtis to Damo Suzuki. Their reputation has grown fast since their first gig in 2024 leading them to play sold out shows across Bristol, London and Manchester.
