Street Party In Soho: Out of the cold of the northern city of Newcastle, Street Party In Soho have somehow created an eclectic sound that lives, breathes and beckons sunshine. Their latest track, 'Honey', is three minutes and twenty seconds of young angst and happiness made into an ethereal sound.
SoShe: SoShe have confounded this beat-driven, groove ridden sound that boasts a simple backdrop for vocalist, Dayne Leadbitter, to make full use of her extensive range. SoShe are the result of a love affair between The Japanese House and London Grammar.
Shields: Everything gets a bit groovy when Shields are put on. Their constant embellishing of poppy bass lines make for a simple yet well-driven optimistic sound. It's not groundbreaking, but it makes you feel good.
Mouses: There are only two of them, but it doesn't sound like that. The huge guitars and, somehow, even bigger drums do often see you taken aback. It's a less experimental White Stripes, but a louder, more diverse, Deep Vally. At times it sounds as though Mouses don't know what they're doing, but that doesn't matter because whatever it is, is so so so good.
Lisbon: They've already dropped a huge EP boasting their tropical sound. Yet, there is a feeling that Lisbon are just getting started, even after doing one lengthy headline tour, then supporting Model Aeroplanes on their lengthy tour, they're now releasing even more songs, making for a large back catalogue that works on the mantra of quality, not quantity.
Kosoti: Their sound is quite happy with being completely apathetic, but it's entirely emotive. Having just released a new single, 'By Your Side' in support of the Teenage Cancer Trust, Kosoti are not only a good band, they're also very nice people.
Kobadelta: Whilst having one of the coolest names, Kobadelta also seem to boast a very cool sound. There is the post-punk sentiment, but the overall pent up frustration of the punk era.
Heist: They're still relatively unkown, boasting a modest 125 likes on Facebook. But their debut single is surely destined for something big. A soothing sound, that works on reassuring the listener that things aren't all that bad. It's very laissez-faire, and isn't a million miles away from an early Strokes album.
Far Pacific: At the astonishingly young age of 16 (at most) this band have found a knack for writing some of the most captivating upbeat music. By the looks of their pictures on Facebook, they're more than capable of putting on a live show to match their abrasive sound.
Euan Lynn: Bands may be downsizing from four to two pieces, but Euan Lynn has still managed to make quite a statement. He is a one-man punk band, making a sound that has The Ramones in abundance whilst being more than just a simple carbon copy of the punk-rock heroes. Lynn also has a habit of writing great song names e.g. 'Lloyd's Gross, Man'
Deep.Sleep: Deep.Sleep point out that at the age of 19, people can still get wiser, but also at the age of 21, you can still get fucked off a fiver (try Frosty Jacks, for example). Their teenage rebellion addled lyrics can often leave you smiling at their cheeky chappy charm.
Casual Threats: It's not often that such a miserable sounding band could be so good. Yet, Casual Threats are like a more composed Slaves. Their pessimistic lyricist make for a sound that is a cross breed Joy Division and The Buzzcocks.
ALXNDR: When a band omit vowels, you tend to imagine them being some sort of glam-rock hipster throw back. But with ALXNDR you get soulful Americana pop. It's easy listening without being boring.
