After seeing The Midnight Lycan Party’s gig in Stoke last month I felt like putting my iPod in a guillotine, eradicating every byte of voguish trash and instead basking in the unpretentious revival of raw performance.

The three piece from Stoke-on-Trent categorize themselves as a gothic garage band with shadings of post-punk and they’re right in that no newfangled umbrella term should hogtie them to one sound, because it’s so much more than that.

Little Glitches and Chapter 24

Welcome to what is the start of a new series we like to call Live4ever Presents… Each week we will introduce you to two new up and coming bands that we feel are definitely worth mentioning to the masses. So without further ado let me commence with my first latest find for you. These four guys from Sheffield go by the name of ‘Little Glitches’.

This band were a very lucky find for me, they have a sound that I thoroughly enjoy in bands of late. They stem from a classic background of psychedelic, folky sounds such as Buffalo Springfield, Incredible String Band and now quite close to Fleet Foxes. When I first heard their last EP ’123′ I was amazed by how wonderful and jubilant there music was. Its a dreamy slice of harmonic psychedelic folk music that makes you feel like your walking through a field and discovering something that is a secret to the world. I don’t usually get this with a lot of new music, but with these guys I genuinely got the ‘spine tingling’ feeling when I first heard them, a definite sign of something special in my eyes.
