We found Argyle on TikTok and instantly fell for the vocals. Feeling so familiar with tones that reminded us of Teddy Swims, we were hooked.
The lyrics are great, and we were surprised to find out - he wasn’t already a huge star.
For album lovers, Playground in Ruins is an immediate must. Start with this, though.
The chorus is so catchy that it was impossible to ignore. The moment we heard it, it was an instant earworm. Clean vocals, beautiful use of space between the instruments.
A gorgeously presented track. If you like Dermot Kennedy, you’ll love this track. The rest of his catalog is worth your time, too.
This is for the lovers of bands like Adema, hot, heavy, and with that strong 90s rock feel.
A song that would’ve been perfect on one of the best soundtracks of all time, The Queen of the Damned.
We started with Drift, found on TikTok, and soon fell for Ego. AND, Survive is a treat for Rock/EDM heads. Highly deserving of more ears.
Another TikTok find, All Monsters Are Human, comes with a big swathe of everything you want from good metal. Violent breakdowns, plenty of gravel-filled scream-alongs, and enough emo lyrics to keep even elder millennials happy.
The switch between singing voice and screamo is perfect, the musicianship is strong, and they need more appreciation stat.
We’ve been sharing Fran on our socials for ages, big fans of Frans.
Only In My Dreams was another TikTok find, and boy, are we glad about it.
If you feel like crying, the My Grandparents’ House is highly relatable and a stunning example of lyricism and beautiful vocals. We wish millions of fans for Fran.
