After a busy year on tour with the likes of The Cribs, Thrice, Foo Fighters, Frank Carter, plus slots at Reading & Leeds and Download Festival, riotous punk trio God Damn have shared brand new video for noise-rock Everything Ever cut, ‘I'll Bury You’. The video sums up a year of touring, with a series of intimate shots from shows with The Cribs. Speaking about the video, the band said: "The video is made up of snippets of our time on tour with The Cribs, filmed by our mate Tim Mobbs. We think it captures the essence of our live show whilst showing a bit of behind the scenes daftness."

The sludge-rock trio have also announced a short hiatus, while they retract from the public eye and write their next album. They announced on social media: "After an amazing couple of years and two albums, we're going away for a short while to work on the next one. Don't worry, we'll be back with a flurry of new sounds we're already bursting with. Here's a little video from our time on the road with The Cribs. See ya soon!”

Produced by Ross Orton (The Fall, Drenge, Tricky, MIA) and recorded at McCall Sound Studio in Sheffield, the trio's most recent album Everything Ever is riotous yet unabashedly pop, in the same way Nirvana’s Nevermind  was ‘pop’: prizing the value of a tune, and using artfully crafted verses and choruses to slip past your defences and detonate little stories when you least expect it.

London-based Dubliner Louis Brennan has released the video for his latest single ‘London’, which is taken from his debut album Dead Capital, to be released on February 28. The track is a quirky, upbeat lampooning of the despair of London life with ironically cheerful harmonies over a shoulder-shimmying groove. The lyrics describe our all-too-common love affair with documenting our daily mundane activities, the loneliness and hypocrisy of the city and watching big dreams crumble through shattered expectations, all while following Louis on his regular commute on the 277 bus.

The charmingly lo-fi lyric video depicts iconic London landmarks and the staples of inner-city living, including grey skies, crowded streets and the tube, filmed on a fuzzy camcorder and candidly capturing endearingly wobbly shots. Louis says, “Here's the video for ‘London’. It's on the border of so shit it's good and just plain shit, obviously my intention being the former. Nothing says self-indulgent hipster like an obsession with obsolete technology!”

The new single follows his debut release ‘Bit Part Actor’, a darkly emotive track that sees Louis laconically recount a period of his life filled with bitterness, despondency and anguish in the goosebump-inducing song. Creating his own brand of thinking man’s folk, Louis’ music is deep and rich in emotion, marking him out as an artist of remarkable talent and immeasurable depth of mind. His lyrics are also razor-sharp, bittersweet and often full of wry humour.
