With parenthood, redundancy, job hunting, a very busy new job and a steam-powered laptop all taking up time, we’ve not been able to post anywhere near as much as we’d like to throughout 2023 – but we still love music and what’s December without some Top 5s. Here is five of our favourite tracks of…
Everything Everything have shared ‘Teletype’ – the latest single to be taken from forthcoming album ‘Raw Data Feel’ (out on 20 May). While the album uses responses from an AI programme that incorporates Beowulf, 4Chan posts, the teachings of Confucius and the terms and conditions of LinkedIn to develop lyrics, song titles and artwork, the…
Everything Everyhing have shared ‘Arch Enemy’, the second single to be taken from their forthcoming album ‘Re-Animator (out on 21 August and available to pre-order here). Following the sublime ‘In Birdsong’, Jonathan Higgs says the new single is about ‘a modern-day protagonist searching for a meaningful God. Finding only a congregation of greed, toxicity and…
As we’ve now reached 1,000 posts* (as our friends at For the Rabbits said when they reached this landmark, that’s a lot of words to basically say ‘I like this song/band/album etc’) we thought we’d look back over the Glastonbury Festivals we’ve attended and choose a set that lit up Worthy Farm from each year.…
Everything Everything have made a welcome return with the beautiful ‘In Birdsong’. The song, produced by John Congleton (Sharon Van Etten, St. Vincent, Future Islands) is the first new material to be aired from the four piece’s upcoming fifth album. Jonathan Higgs says the band didn’t originally plan to release this track this early but…

The video for ‘Breadwinner’ features a Lawnmower Man-style rendering of EE frontman Jonathan Higgs dancing…
itoldyouiwouldeatyou have had an awesome year, but what are the albums they’ve been listening to? We asked Joey Ashworth from the band to reveal their Top 5 records of 2017. “Idles – ‘Brutalism’ It’s impossible to say why I love ‘Brutalism’ concisely. The lyrics are angry for all the right reasons, without being cruel. It’s…
2017 has been an incredible year for music with so many must-have EPs and albums. Big names like Ryan Adams, The National and British Sea Power released their best new material in years while the likes of BSM, Holy Roar and Specialist Subject Records helped ensure the independent scene continued to thrive. Below are our…
Ever since Everything Everything burst onto the scene in 2008 (they’ve been around a long time now!) with ‘Suffragette Suffragette’, they’ve been going from strength to strength. 2015’s ‘Get to Heaven’ was a hugely successful record and anyone who was lucky enough to see their two Glastonbury performances on that tour cycle – especially the…
Excitement is already at breaking point for ‘A Fever Dream’, Everything Everything‘s fourth album. Now, it will go up another level after the Manchester masters of oddball pop revealed their new single, ‘Desire”.
