G.L Shelley - Feeling The Heat Review by Ella Fearnley
Lincoln’s indie rock artist G.L. Shelley is heating up the autumnal days with his new single Feeling The Heat. It’s their first official studio release, and it’s definitely not one to miss. From start to finish you’re drawn in by the melodic guitar and drums along with the vocals which themselves are delivered with a unique raspiness reminding me of Placebos Brian Molko. The breakdown really brings it home for the final chorus providing the perfect opportunity to get ready to sing along with the pretty relatable lyrics. An infectious foot tapping indie tune. For sure one artist to watch out for.
Hard rock Bitchin’ Hour - Viper Woman Review by Martyn Bewick
Well, the title, band name and opening statement of the song say all you need to know really! From the first second this track oozes attitude, overflows with blues, and smacks you in the face with large slap of soul. The music really plays second fiddle to the immensely strong lead vocals from Leonie Wilson, though when some satisfying lead melodies come in, you’ll be forgiven for thinking you were half way through an Iron Maiden track - not with widdely nonsense leads, but with some tidy melodic hooks nicely break up the song. Considering this is a post-lockdown formed band, therefore relatively new and with little experience as a group, this is a great mission statement for these 5 radius ladies to open with. More please
