Knitting Circle play socially-conscious and urgent post-punk with near-spoken-word vocals, sharp-ass guitar lines, kinetic bass, sci-fi synth swathes, and taut angular drums. A supergroup featuring members of Milky Wimpshake, Crumbs, Red Monkey, and No Fit State. Formed in York in 2023, their debut EP Deciduous Climbers was released in June: https://knittingcircle.bandcamp.com
Glitch Magnet are a wiry art-damaged post-punk esoteric noise-core band formed in Leicester in 2022. Their half spoken vocals drip with imagery and cut through a band sounding in sync while always threatening to descend into glorious dissonance: https://linktr.ee/glitchmagnet
Interkosmos are an intriguing premier disaster pop trio from Nottingham. Their wonky art popping track Melissa is available on Bandcamp and whets the appetite nicely: Melissa | interkosmos
