Live4ever’s New Tunes Guide feat. Puppet Rebellion, Featherface and more


ntg1




It’s the first New Tunes Guide of November and we have highlights this week from Manchester band Puppet Rebellion and Texans Featherface.

Puppet Rebellion‘s new video for ‘Cupboards Painted Red’ takes its theme from what is described as singer Simon Monaghan’s ‘first-hand experiences’ of domestic violence as a child growing up in the South Manchester district of Wythenshawe. “As a band we have always wanted to write about real things that affect people,” guitarist Craig Gibson explains. “It’s not necessarily about being topical or politicised, we’re just interested in engaging people in things that matter.”

Featherface hail from from Houston, Texas and have just completed a stint as an official CMJ act at the festival in New York City, when they performed at The Texas Takeover Party and The Holy Underground Music Showcase. They were also a part of their home state’s South By Southwest Festival earlier this year after the release of their debut LP ‘Actual Magic’.

These and six other picks of the week can be found by scrolling through our latest collection. Find out much more about this week’s featured artists by clicking on their individual names, and you can catch up with all our previous editions direct through the New Tunes Guide logo above.

To celebrate the start of another month of great music, the Live4ever Ezine is very excited to partner with Manchester’s Ei8htball to offer one lucky reader a new pair of their EX811 in-earphones! Once you’ve been through this week’s tracks, check out all the competition details below.

It’s all about the sound really.

The skitter of a drum machine, the romance of the 808 kicking “Manchester” into life, the howling feedback that links The Who to Jesus And the Mary Chain…to Napalm Death, the jangle that stretches from the Beatles to Arctic Monkeys, the soul groove that pulls back from Alex Turner’s Sheffield lads to Marvin Gaye and rebounds to Robin Thicke.

What you need is something that can handle all of those sounds. Something that will cope with whatever mood you’re in. Something that will be true to what you need to hear.

ei8htball. It’s all in your head.
