North of the border at last!
It's been a while, too long in fact. I have finally stopped working hundreds of miles away from home and I am back north of the border for good! Life has been hectic and some of the things I wanted to write about have fallen by the wayside so this will be a quick post about a couple of Glasgow based bands. First up are Y'all Is Fantasy Island. They write songs that are in equal measures both beautiful and bleak, discordant , dark, intricate, difficult, catchy but all together brilliant. Their recent release No Ceremony is their most immediate record to date and after a few listens you will find yourself singing With Handclaps in your head because it is one of the most infectious songs you will have heard all year. YiFi get better each and every time I see them live which is where they truly show what they are made of. Adam is a fantastic front man , his howling, tortured vocals will grab your attention and will not let you go until he is done and your ears are ringing. All o
