February New Music Round-Up: JAW, Disconnected, Twisted Faith, ETHMEBB, The Hollowmen Project, Chemical Vision, Ray Of Light & Hemwick
We recently began discovering new rock and metal bands through music discovery platform Groover. Some bands don't respond to our requests for interviews, so we'll likely be doing semi-regular round-ups of new artists we've discovered through the site.
Introducing: Foreign Shapes
London trio Foreign Shapes have honed an engaging indie-rock sound that offers a nod to 90s Britrock and 2000s alternative rock, and they describe as "nostalgic, atmospheric, and introspective."
Introducing: Mountain Peaks
Norwich trio Mountain Peaks have crafted an intriguing sound that toes the line between emo, shoegaze and screamo, and they describe as "chaos, suffering and beauty."
New Band of the Week: Call Of Sirens
Porstmouth quartet Call Of Sirens have crafted a catchy and engaging rock sound led by powerful vocals and punky instrumentals, which they describe as "attitude, emotive and different."
New Band of the Week: Electron
London-based trio Electron fuse elements of grunge, hard rock, metal and nu-metal in an intense but engaging sound that they describe as "vicious, ferocious and unapologetic."
Introducing: Hana Piranha
Alternative rockers Hana Piranha have crafted an intriguing sound that fuses heavy guitars, orchestral arrangements and dark lyrical content and they describe as "dark, genuine and intense."
New Band of the Week: ICANTDIE
South Wales band ICANTDIE offer up a post-hardcore sound that's both heavy and accessible that they like to summarise as "chaotic, heavy, loud, frenetic, energetic and dark."
New Band of the Week: Idle Tongues
Cornish band Idle Tongues have honed an engaging modern hard rock sound that aims to take the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions and they describe as "emotive, punchy and dynamic."
