    DiScover: Dirty On Purpose

    19577

    New York four-piece Dirty On Purpose actually originate from the distinctly un-rock'n'roll backwaters of Pennsylvania, Vermont, Massachusetts and Virginia. Formed in 2002, their sound collages evoke memories of My Bloody Valentine-curated dreamscapes, Guided B... »

    DiScover: Tiger MCs

    19262

    Tiger MCs – a project which sees James Butcher experiment with summery, twee folk-pop and lo-fi acoustic pleasures. Needless to say, it’s absolutely lovely. »

    DiScover: Shaky Hands

    19155

    Picture someone crooning Al Green and uninhibitedly shaking their rump round in a circle, really fast. The unbearable awesomeness of this mental image does not even come close to the fervor you will feel after hearing New Zealand's latest offering, Shaky Hands... »

    DiScover: Kubichek!

    7690

    For Newcastle foursome Kubichek!, the phrases "About to happen" and "Next big thing" seem to have followed them around almost extensively since they first burst onto the scene some fifteen months or so ago with the glorious disco-punk seven-inch that was 'Nightjoy'. »

    DiScover: The KBC

    18677

    Preston three-piece The KBC have caused more than the odd spurt of enthusiasm around the world of DiS ever since their 'Pride Before The Fall / Poisonous Emblem' single dropped ecstatically through the letterbox approximately this time last year... »

    DiScover: Los Campesinos!

    18655

    A young man stands on stage smiling in incomprehension. His band, just 14 gigs old, are halfway through their set at Camden's Barfly. The crowd sings along, cheering to tracks they've only heard on the internet like they're Greatest Hits staples. It's one o'clock ... »

    DiScover: iLiKETRAiNS

    13499

    As the sun sets in the Nottinghamshire sky so does a chapter in the story of iLiKETRAiNS. The band are ready to draw a line under their old material, catalogued most comprehensively on the seven-track Progress Reform EP, and begin expanding their horizons...

    DiScover: Viking Moses

    18146

    Viking Moses is a man and a band – a man called Brendon Massei and a band called, well, Viking Moses. Where the line between Brendon and Viking lies, we’re not really certain, but the fact is that it matters not: the man’s music is as wonderful when played by ... »

    DiS Radio: DiScover Three

    12428

    A delicious mix of bleeding edge new tracks and a couple of relatively unknown favourites from recent times. The Chap, Jonquil and Dananananakroyd hit the new music buttons with delicious aplomb, whilst the dubstep drama of Skream is showcased perfectly at the end. »

    DiScover: redcarsgofaster

    18319

    Championed by DiS since their very first demo arrived on the doorstep, Leicester based sextet redcarsgofaster are a distinct bunch - their music can be aligned to such mixed emotions as dancing, standing still, screaming, pausing, fighting and smiling. Usually... »

    DiScover: Trencher

    18149

    Trencher are three men, known to their parents as L***, M*** and R***, but to the thousands of grind-minded individuals the length and breadth of this country and beyond they’re referred to as Lock Monger, Milk Shit and Pox respectively... »

    ReDiScover: Cable

    15373

    Cable used to be a band; now, they’re a whisper and a sigh, an echo of not-so-olden days of rockin’ about the country with a smidgen of passion, the slightest semblance of soul at least. Their departure wasn’t received like the passing of an infamous ro... »

    The Weekly DiScussion: How do you DiScover new music?

    17602

    Once upon a time, in the not so distant past, people used to find new soundtracks for their lives from weekly newspapers - the type that got your hands all inky - and from the radio. Nowadays, the goalposts have moved: how do you, now, find out about new music? »

    DiScover: They Don't Sleep

    17488

    They Don't Sleep are a London-based four-piece whose exquisite take on the post-rock formula – packing more twinkles and sparkles into their songs than many other slow-burning rockers – grabbed DiS’s attention with a self-titled demo EP. They play the DiScover... »

    DiScover: Jairus

    17446

    Jairus are a Kentish five-piece whose relatively low profile hasn’t prevented them trekking to many a corner of the world – the band, together since 2001, have crammed into a van long enough to see the sights of Eastern Europe, have visited Scandinavia, and ha... »

    DiScover: The Insect Guide

    17423

    Leeds-based label 48 Crash is known for being a maverick outlet amongst more straight-and-narrow companies - none of the artists on their roster are exactly sheep-like followers of what’s in vogue at the minute... »

    DiScover: Exit Ten

    17168

    Every year I alight from the M4 at Junction 11 to participate in decreasingly rock ‘n’ roll antics at the Reading Festival. However, if I ever made a serious error and tried to end my journey a junction earlier I might have rolled into a British metalcore extravaganz... »
