One word to describe this track? Goosebumps. This beautiful new song by Loris and the Lion is 6 minutes of pure bliss. Loris and the Lion are a Alternative Folk band from Liverpool and describe this new track as a ‘haunting tale of love and loss, freedom and captivity.’ The atmospheric opening of the track, distant sounds and tinkling piano transports you to another world as you wait with eager anticipation for the voices to…
The new and brash punk duo known as Generation have released their angst fueled debut single Suicidal Champagne – a fast and enthralling punk number to get your heart pounding. It seems that punk is making a comeback amongst the Liverpool scene. Artists are starting to latch onto an aggressive outlet that assists in accurately channeling the hostility they feel towards those in power whom have handled the fragility of the creative industry with such…
Sipping a cup of tea ahead of his ‘In Conversation With’ event at Liverpool’s British Music Experience, Mark Radcliffe looks better than I’ve ever seen him, which is pretty amazing for somebody in remission from cancer. “It’s almost like it happened to someone else now,” he tells me. “I think about it in a sense of being the best and the worst thing that happened to me because it’s made me appreciate life and I’m…
In these current times of Covid uncertainty, where we all live in social bubbles and everyday seems the same, with the Arts under threat, it is now that the transcendence provided by music is in need the most. It is good for one’s soul to be transported into different aural realms, and we need the musicians of calibre that can transport us there. So thank goodness for San Pedro’s Vision. The Subconscious Reflection EP consists…
The changing of seasons is a fascinating time of year. A time for leaving things behind whilst simultaneously opening our eyes to new horizons. It is only fitting perhaps that local singer/songwriter Jonny Taylor bursts onto the scene with his first single Walk Along the River to water down your summer rue and embrace the next journey ahead. Walk Along the River is a track heard best whilst on the go. It’s a song for…
Sheltering from a horrible Saturday afternoon wash-out, we caught up with Colin White of Joe Symes & The Loving Kind to talk albums, EPs and everything in between. The band, formulated of Joe Symes on guitar/lead vocals/harmonica, Colin White as drummer/percussion/backing vocals and Alan Welsh on bass, have been on the scene since 2015 (or, in Colin’s words, “Yeh around then, maybe earlier or later, sounds about right!”) and have since recorded an impressive back catalogue of songs for their ever-growing global fanbase. More…

Salt The Snail have released their ear lashing new garage rock single Maaate – A rawly produced track that’s reminiscent of a 90s punk energy. Within the context of today’s music landscape, it seems almost every track that is released has to be polished to perfection. Due to the vast array of artists and producers that inhabit the industry, each member sets a precedent for one another; a precedent of rhythmically clean guitars that pan…

With the most playful tone towards anti-establishment sentiments, Hannah’s Little Sister released their latest single Gum ahead of their debut EP EP.mp3 Hannah’s Little Sister are a junk-pop quartet that have been sporadically infusing elements of punk, pop and indie into their bizarre discography of synth-heavy arcade styled tracks. These four unconventional musicians are shamelessly throwing their abrasive energy into the ears of their listeners, whom are quick to requite adoration for their alien aesthetic.…

Cures and Curses is the solo project of 22 year old South London native, Aaron Akpojaro, founded in Liverpool in 2017. This month sees the release of his third single, Owe You Nothing. Having not heard of Cures and Curses before, I visited his previous two singles, No Fun and Fall Apart, Crash Together, and if you haven’t already, I recommend blasting out these two tracks in anticipation of his new release. With each single…
As expected, the initial lockdown following the UK’s Covid-19 outbreak allowed for musicians to knuckle down and really sharpen their creative abilities. This has given many artists in Liverpool a chance to hone their sound and create a better vision for where they want their music to take them, leading to a storm of new music to overwhelm the city’s profusion of creatively enthused inhabitants. Once again, we at Liverpool Noise have compiled a Spotify…

Clearly fighting to make their mark on the table…
Well Blues, it’s not been bad at all, has it? 4 games into the Premier League season and we’re flying, quite literally, as high as can be, but being Evertonians, we aren’t delusional to think ‘its our year’. Sure, don’t get me wrong I’m as confident as the next person to believe we can finish as high as we ever have since the inception of the league in 1992, but, as I’ve said, we’re 4…
