Favourite things this week

1. The Magic Gang (Album by The Magic Gang)






The Magic Gang are making guitar  music exciting again, and their debut album proves this. After packing out festival tents last year, they released their debut album on 16th March 2018. This follows several EPs that showcased what the band is capable of, and the debut album exceeds expectations. "Alright" and "All This Way", which were previously released, have been amplified to be bulky indie anthems. This album will immerse you in 90s nostalgia.

2. Fenty Beauty - Gloss bomb

Rihanna released her highly anticipated make up line last September, and after trying the majority of the products Gloss Bomb is my favourite. If your lips are in need of moisture, if they've been suffering through our extremely long winter, this product is the perfect solution. The Shea Butter moisturises the lips, and the neutral colour of the Gloss will  suit every skin tone. It's time we embrace the Gloss revival, and you should do so with Gloss Bomb.

 3. AF1 @customsbyleanne

Following months of debating whether to buy some AF1, I found @customsbyleanne on Instagram, and realised I needed a pair of customs in my life. The whole process was simple, Leanne suggested patterns for the shoes after listening to what I was interested in. The result was these bright floral AF1, which will look amazing at festivals and events. Each custom made by Leanne are truly individual and unique pieces of art.

single reviews

Wolf Alice – You’re A Germ Second single off the North London quartet’s debut, with a hard to ignore name. You’re A Germ is a single with a narrative, which would take listeners back to their school days, talking about teenage relationships, they build on the nostalgia, which is a common theme throughout their first album. It’s the grungy sound we’re used to from Wolf Alice, but the song is a massive build up of lead singer’s Ellie Roswell’s emotions, starting off with a steady beat, going into something a lot heavier, making the single work, because of the contrast. FFS – Call Girl The Scottish, American super group, made of Franz Ferdinand and Sparks release Call Girl off of their Debut, self titled, album. Using funky harmonies, to make the chorus stay in your head all day, the song wants fans and audiences to enjoy it. The song borrows repetitive beats from Franz Ferdinand, but still feels like a Sparks single, because of the use of synths. Sure everyone will be hearing th...

Bombay Bicycle Club at Citadel, Victoria Park

This year Citadel closed Victoria Park's festival weekend, although it was a one day festival, the celebrations had started off on the Friday with Lovebox festival. This was Citadel's first year as a festival, and from crowd reactions, I doubt it will be the last. Citadel saw Bombay Bicycle Club headline one of the few festivals they are playing this year. After a massive 2014, with Mercury nominated album "So long, see you tomorrow" and the last ever headline show at Earl's Court Exhibition Center, they have slowed down on the touring this year, but still made time to headline in their hometown.  The set opened with "Overdone" letting the crowd know what they were in for, an hour of fun, dancey, indie rock music. You could tell from the looks on the band's faces they were happy to be there, which obviously had a positive effect on the crowd. The band then went into "It's alright now" a song which the whole audience was dancing ...
