Sparta have unveiled a brand-new single and video, Everything You Say. Taken from this month’s Cut A Silhouette album, frontman Jim Ward explains that, “The music for this was brought in by Matt [Miller] to the earliest writing sessions at my house in El Paso, tweaked in a hotel room in Oklahoma City and played at a soundcheck that night. It is one of those songs that takes shape early, and no matter how you adjust, it just keeps ending up back where it started. I love it. This is a dreamy song about longing and love. A big scream…

Think Godzilla meets King Kong but with turntables and battle rap energy dialled up to eleven.Beyond this release, The Allergies are riding serious momentum. Support from BBC Radio 6 Music continues to build, and their…

Listen to “Won’t Stand Down (Bright-Side Mix)” below: “It’s really a song to encourage some sort of activism,” says Gabriel. “I had originally thought about trying to create some music for The Elders.org, who are an extraordinary group of people.
