Brightonsfinest Radio InterviewsEverything Everything interview 2017Part of the so-called ‘new complexity’ movement of bands that includes the likes of early Foals, alt-J and Wild Beasts, Everything Everything have nevertheless been ploughing their own furrow since they burst onto the scene back in the latter part of the last decade. Makers of a distinctively British sound that fuses 90s dance with guitars, synths and drums in creating a crisp, often forceful, sometimes subtle noise, their creativity and adventurism shows little bounds. Whereas their previous album, Get To Heaven, was an almost invariably danceable affair, where all the tracks were performed live, in A Fever Dream, they...

Brightonsfinest Radio InterviewsDeclan McKenna interview 2017There's plenty of mileage to be had in analysing the youth of today. More than ever, it seems. Not just for the purposes of marketing and consumer preferences. Sure, reality TV and mainstream pop is (as it has always been) largely dominated by the youth. But, more than ever, they are literally going their own way. They are leaving the rest of us in our tracks. Metaphorically speaking. Look at what happened in the recent European Referendum, and the General Election. The youth (under 25) overwhelmingly voted to stay in Europe, and to enact policies that emphasised socialism; a collectivist...

Brightonsfinest Radio InterviewsAlt-J – Interview 2017They’ve done it again. Albeit perhaps not quite as consistently impressive as their first two albums, alt-J still hit new peaks on Relaxer, an album that continues their foray into that weird and wonderful mix of prog, folk, garage and electro, but which is more spacious and at times punchier. It’s epitomised by the stunning lead track ‘3WW’ (three worn words), a song that, according to the band, “Traces the adventures of a wayward lad on England’s northeast coast, culminating in the whispering of three worn words.” It’s full of sexual awakening and adventure, and features the voi...
