Starting out in early 2019, emo rock quartet Between Bodies from Cologne, Germany have wasted no time putting together their debut EP, ‘On Fences’. Packed with sincere heartfelt lyrics and catchy punk rock riffs, Between Bodies is reminiscent of emo giants such as Moose Blood, The Gaslight Anthem, and Alkaline Trio, all while still maintaining their own unique sound. Their debut EP had its digital release in December 2019 with a proper vinyl debut slated for 22 May via I.Corrupt.Records in cooperation with Krod Records. So, what exactly makes Between Bodies debut EP stand out in the crowd?

The cross-national punk ‘n’ roll duo which takes its name from frontman Craggy Collyde first came to the attention of ÜRHQ back in 2018, when their rather excellent debut single bothered our deathdecks for a while. Much to our eternal shame, we did not actually cover the release at the time, but there’s a saying about being better late than never, so we’re making amends now that this more fulsome mini-album has winged its way from the Slovak Republic…

It can still be well made or even well performed. Sometimes it just lacks that something special that makes it stand out. Sadly, that is how John B felt about ‘100’. He did not dislike it by any standard and ever rather enjoyed it in the background but there was nothing about it that really stood out as super memorable…

If you don’t know the name Duncan Reid then you do indeed have only yourself to blame, either for living in isolation for a lot longer than the rest of us or failing to read your favourite website for the past decade. But, then, it has been a while since we’ve heard from the frontman of the self-proclaimed “best power pop punk group in the world” – almost exactly three years, to be precise! Well, now he’s back with his fourth solo album… a collection of 14 songs about mortality, midlife crises, mortality, first summer holidays, mortality, midlife crises, inter-generational love affairs, politicians, mortality and midlife crises – in other words, “a little something for all the family in these dangerous and confined times”, as the man himself says.
