TTV has always been about discovering new music so here’s a digestible weekly dosage of bands and new music we’re digging at TTV HQ. Those on Spotify are updated on our TTV DISCOVER playlist, so give us a follow via our username TeamTTV.
GANG (England)
Brighton’s GANG have dropped their forthcoming single ‘Dead’ in a wonderfully macabre new music video. The band are siblings plus pal and their latest release is a swirling grunge screamer with off-kilter harmonies and angry undertone. Check it out below:
CROWS (England)
We got caught in the mega-whirlwind that was their set at Brighton’s The Great Escape earlier this year and have watched social media blow up over the last few days with the band on tour, rightfully ripping through venues with their aggressive sound. Get to know CROWS and make an effort to catch them live ASAP!
Allan Rayman (USA)
Hailing from Austin, Texas, Allan Rayman’s output exhibits all the makings of a breakout star. Blessed with a soulful voice that gives every single word a profound level of authenticity, Allan’s newest track 25.22 is the perfect summary of his grasp on both mofd traditional, blues-oriented music and the contemporary sounds of R&B.
YOWL (England)
Tackling their displeasure with the norm and the pitfalls that are intrinsically linked to life in a throbbing hive of a city, Peckham’s YOWL and their unblinking candidness is sure to capture the attention many disenfranchised music fans that look to rally against the impotence of modern music. Their debut EP Before The Sleep Sets In is a fantastic listen from opening salvo to its final notes and tracks such as ‘Saturday Drag’ are sure to paint a vivid and familiar picture for many.
THEE MVPS (ENGLAND)
Colossal riffs, truckloads of antagonistic bravado and unmistakable passion for what they’re doing, Thee MVPs are coming into their own on new single ‘Slimelord.’ Preparing to head out on tour with Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, their latest output is demonstrable of their power and why they could well be onto something special.
HAUNTED TIGER (USA)
Revealed via the renowned Burger Records, the latest offering from LA’s Haunted Tiger is a ghoulish and imposing track that aligns a Bobby Gillespie aping croon with atmospherically jazzy piano and guitar that wouldn’t seem out of place in a David Lynch movie.
FAUVES (SCOTLAND)
Produced by Gianluca Bernacchi of The Vegan Leather, the latest track from Glasgow’s Fauves is a vibrant and immersive slice of indie pop that could’ve been spawned in a sunny utopia if it weren’t for its thoughtful, insular lyricism. Building on impressive showings on debut tracks ‘Head Spins’ and ‘Content (For Now)’, they may be a lowkey prospect at the moment but the level of songwriting adeptness that’s on display could point to a rapid rise through Scotland’s music scene.
