Sahara Line has paid a scuzzy ode to Prog Rock with “Plead”

Alt-Rock fourpiece Sahara Line has cooked up a progressively fierce storm with their single “Plead”. Any fans of Muse, 30 Seconds to Mars and Pink Floyd are going to want to pay it some serious attention.

Plead defies the Geographical constraints which constrict so Liverpool-based artists, Sahara Line will put the city back on the aural map with a completely new scuzzy Prog Rock sound. But if you immerse yourself deep enough in the track, you’ll get to pull out the psychedelically mind-warping nuances which the city is famous for.

The pulsating distorted rhythms may bring a sludgy amount of doom to the gothic soundscape, but the striking vocals cut right through it, with crystal-clear harmonies which will crawl under your ribs, it’s safe to say that Sahara Line is one of the most exciting acts around in the UK right now. Their completely authentic, soul-quakingly evocative sound is exactly what the airwaves need.

Tulpas releases most recent single Good Doggiez

Alternative Rock artist Tulpas has released ‘Good Doggiez’ it’s gothic, synth and gives you all the right amount of Rock and it’s based on ‘’poochies everywhere’’ as Tulpas says himself.

A bit of old school gothic rock comes shining through in this one, sounding similar to The Cure, it offers that bit of edginess as well as being strange and dark, but that’s what grips you in as you listen. It starts off with a light eerie sound as the vocals begin to add that more low-pitched gravelly tone as well as the quiet vocal whisper that tends to come in every now and then.

The instrumentation that takes place throughout, is that more synthesised style as well as putting the electric guitar to good use with the electrifying riffs  to give it that Rock feeling and the light tapping on the drum to bring the perfectly distorted instrumental.

Tulpas definitely knows how to make Alternative Goth and Rock a hit, managing to bring it into this year and giving it a whole new progressed and unique sound.
