SIGN OF LIFE - SUNSET MIX

DEFEND MOSCOW MYSPACE

Defend Moscow will release their second single 'Die Tonight' on 22nd June through KIDS Records. 'Die Tonight' is the follow up to the sell out debut single, 'Manifesto' which garnered overwhelmingly positive reviews, and support from Zane Lowe (Radio 1), 6Music and XFM.

'Die Tonight' explores the thoughts that would go through the minds of people informed that a nuclear attack had been launched, and certain death was minutes away, to the soundtrack of a dancefloor-destroying beat and bassline, and the soaring twin vocals of Jon Beck and Sofie Storaas.

B-side 'Sign of Life' continues the dark lyrical theme (sitting by the bedside of someone on life support), accompanied by epic washes of synths and another driving bassline, recalling Depeche Mode, New Order and Brian Eno.

A: ANOTHER MIRACLE

NEW EDUCATION MYSPACE

 

New Education will release their new single, 'Another Miracle', on 13 July 2009 through KIDS Records. Produced by Chris Potter (The Verve), the track is further testament to New Education's ability to produce soaring, anthemic tunes that offer escapism from everyday drudgery.

 

'Another Miracle' is the follow-up to their sold-out debut single 'Today', released in October 2008. New Education were formed by Brothers Ryan Dooley (vocals, guitar) and Jack Dooley (bass, backing vocals) in January 2008, along with long-time friends David Cartwright (guitar) and John Bradbury (drums). Influenced by bands like Oasis, The Cure and The Clash, Ryan writes gritty, assured rock songs which the band describe as the sound of "the midlands calling".

The band have earned a devoted and ever-growing following in their native Stoke-On-Trent in a very short space of time, with rowdy gigs at The Sugarmill and the Underground cementing their local fanbase. In the past six months the band have worked hard to spread their sound across the UK, supporting the likes of The Holloways, Detroit Social Club, The Twang and Peter Doherty, and are increasingly gaining fans and recognition as one of Britain's most promising new rock bands.

 

KIDS028 - SILENT FILM PROJECT - TWO DAYS

LIMITED, HAND NUMBERED 7" AND DIGITAL SINGLE

A: TWO DAYS
B: ALLIGATOR

Sheffield-based Silent Film Project will release their debut single 'Two Days' on 8th June 2009 on limited, numbered 7" and digital download through KIDS.

'Two Days' is a summer indie-pop anthem in waiting, shot through with references to youthful exuberance and fun; giddily bouncing along with chiming guitars and the interplaying vocals of Paul Musgrave (vocals/guitar) and Lisa O'Hara (vocals/percussion). B-side 'Alligator' keeps up the high standard; both tracks evoking the sounds of The Smiths at their most playful, and Belle and Sebastian at their most melodic.

The band formed in Scunthorpe as a side project of Paul, Tom Dakin (lead guitar) and Phill Vernon (drums)'s previous band, which quickly became their main focus with the addition of Lisa and James Keown (bass) and their subsequent relocation to Sheffield.

In the last year, the band have won many plaudits, including winning the Intel Studio competition, based at Proud Galleries in Camden, ahead of thousands of other bands; a victory which led to them signing to KIDS. In addition, the band have built up a healthy local following, played shows with Alphabeat, The Wombats and Frank Turner and with further touring to come throughout 2009, Silent Film Project are set to be the soundtrack to your summer.
