Sterling Press
Sterling Press are a four-piece rock band from West London, merging gritty rock riffs with the infectious thud of dance-punk. The band - childhood neighbours & long time best friends Marlon, Ed, Greg, and Lucien - spent their formative years playing every dive London had to offer, bonding over shared obsessions with The Beatles & Blur. After living in Liverpool for a couple of years the boys became DJ’s at the iconic Jacaranda Club, hosting weekly indie disco parties and using the money they earned to buy synthesizers, providing the songwriting foundations for their new sound.
Joy Forever
Hamburg-based post-punk revivalists Joy Forever have unveiled their debut EP Brand New Faces, a raw and compelling 5-track collection that dives deep into themes of dissociation, routine, capitalism, and disillusionment, all filtered through the lens of life in their city. With dark, driving, and atmospheric soundscapes, the band weaves reverb-soaked guitars, urgent drums, heavy basslines, and emotive vocals into songs that balance intensity with vulnerability.
