Decades and Digital
Decades and digital's sound is a mixed pallette; setting the scene with hearty rock guitars whipping up a chord heavy introduction then a fresh voice brings dreamweaving melodies to the front, Choruses are all sing along friendly and dressed up in a depth of harmonies and the whole thing is usually finished off with a tail end soundscape of aggressive playing and shout out loud vocals with capital EPIC

Minnie Birch
Emily and Clare have been in bands together and apart for sometime. Their last band, Nessarose, went seperate ways in 2008, in an attempt to put another band together Emily and Clare started jamming and playing open mics. They haven't really put another band together but they are still jamming and playing open mics....Minnie Birch is the result of that...

Newspeak
Newspeak create nice and beautifully composed songs. The guitar rhythms are mind blowing and the beat mixing is awesome. The songs are polished, and recorded with good sound quality and good vocals. Clearly, a very good alternative band who develop their passion and energy throughout all songs. Totally original and very inventive - looks promising." -- SliceThePie
