The Man The Myth The Meatslab

TikTok Killed the Video Star: Introducing The Man The Myth The Meatslab

Armed with a £20 Akai mic, a notepad of whimsical lyrics, and the enviable ability to capture the hearts of the TikTok masses, Jamie Clarke, aka The Man The Myth The Meatslab is a sensational emerging indie-folk artist carving his own path. Taking inspiration from Bon Iver, Japanese Breakfast and Alex G, the London-based singer-songwriter has a knack of defining the little things, with his new EP ‘Until the Comet Came’ dropping on January 30 ahead of a UK tour in March. “I’d love it if people can find some peace and comfort in the songs and attach them to moments that feel relevant to the music in their life,” he says of his work.

Shared Anxieties: La Dispute Reflect on 'No One Was Driving The Car' Prior to UK Shows

Photo: Martin Music can be visceral, and bands such as La Dispute really amplify that characteristic. For 20 years, the Grand Rapids post-hardcore group have told raw stories in increasingly brutal ways, leading up to their latest offering, ‘No One Was Driving The Car’.

Spilling The Tea: The Beaches on 'No Hard Feelings' and Their UK Tour

With pop pedigree and enviable cool on their side, The Beaches are one of the most exciting bands in the world right now. Having released their third studio album ‘No Hard Feelings’ last summer, the Canadian quartet — bassist-vocalist Jordan Miller, guitarist Kylie Miller, drummer Eliza Enman-McDaniel and multi-instrumentalist Leandra Earl — will soon kick off the latest leg of their world tour with a string of UK shows, starting in Manchester on February 11 before heading to Bristol, Leeds, Birmingham, Glasgow and London, where they’ll play the O2 Academy Brixton.

All The Places We've Been: Midlake Reflect On 'A Bridge To Far' Prior To UK Tour

Photo: Shaina Sheaff When beloved Americana band Midlake convened to discuss their future a short time ago, they considered calling time on their 20 year career. It would have made their upcoming tour a valedictory affair; one last chance to commune and celebrate with fans. Instead, the ties that bind this close-knit Texan sextet resulted in their new album ‘A Bridge To Far’, arguably the best of the trio of records they have released since original frontman and songwriter Tim Smith departed in 2012. It’s a widescreen-yet-reflective, personal record that draws on both their alt-folk beginnings and the dusty desert rock of their more recent work.

The Best Metal Shows of 2025 (And How to See Them Again in 2026)

This might have been the greatest year for heavy metal live shows in a generation. In July, Ozzy Osbourne’s retirement gig brought the entire genre together for one stadium-filling moment of reverence, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. From Iron Maiden to Ice Nine Kills, multiple bands have graduated to their biggest leagues yet, while the underground is full-to-bursting with promising talent. And, the momentum already seems set to continue in 2026.

It’s fitting given how they want to be seen as musicians. “A lot of bands feel very serious right now, and we like showing that you don’t always have to be,” Cai explains. “We’ve got our serious songs  but it’s important to have lighter moments. Some of the best bands never took themselves too seriously and we want to do the same.”

While the Southampton goth-punk outfit certainly do a brisk trade in both, there’s a third key element that defines their vision: world-building. From their earliest incarnations, the band have fused theatricality and storytelling with a level of commitment few of their peers can match, creating universes that expand far beyond the confines of a record sleeve.

Over the past decade, its tangle of scenes has produced consistently interesting, exciting and progressive prospects. A swathe of bands are also pushing post-punk and noise-rock into daring, yet accessible realms, among them Gurriers, NewDad and the intense Dublin four-piece Sprints.

“Life is a scam, get your money back,” Nick Tompkins cries to kick off Crime, an early highlight on Youth Sector’s debut album ‘Pop Couture’. On paper, it’s a lyric that sets the tone for another bleak, despondent post-punk track, mirroring the dire state of affairs that Britain finds itself in. But, in the case of the Brighton five piece’s sound, you can think again.
