Playlist: punk nostalgia, twisted psychedelia
Rubber Oh – The Well Rubber Oh, which has a new album out on Friday, is a side project from Pigsx7 guitarist and producer Sam Grant. But while the ‘day job’ involves some hard-hitting shredding, this is a different beast. The scope is cinematic at times; bits of The Well could soundtrack a twisted take on some kind of medieval epic, while another preview track, Bloodlust, uses strings and chorus to set up a post-psychedelic sound world that takes the Summer of Love and gives it a kick up the backside.

Playlist: Winds of Change
There’s more to North Shields than Neil Tennant’s birthplace. Not that there’s anything wrong with the Pet Shop Boys frontman, but these days the antidote to Being Boring is better found at underground venues like Three Tanners Bank and The Engine Room. Small, but perfectly formed, they’re working together this weekend for a mini-festival that informs the latest, much-delayed playlist.
