A Grave With No Name’s debut album - ‘Mountain Debris’ - is out through No Pain In Pop now. Buy a copy direct on CD or digital release here.

“A uniquely 21st century take on lo-fi that compels spectral washes of sound to tussle with fuzzy guitar breaks in a considered game of cat and mouse. 8/10.”
NME

“A shoegazing masterpiece to round off a year of lo-fi brilliance.”
Dummy

“Overall contemplative and haunting, it takes several spins before the album’s full depths and stark beauty can be fully discovered. With this album they’ve cemented that they’ll be remembered, if not by the masses then at least by those that really matter.”
Loud and Quiet

The crystal clouds of Deep Sht’s Weird You EP have finally drifted close enough to catch us all in their heavy rainfall. It’s out now - buy a copy direct on 7″ or digital here.

Find a dream-goading and gently exhilarating new track from crestfallen London flaneur Tom Watson below.

“Tremendous Garageband-gaze ephemera… fizzy, scuzz-smeared noise pop that’s abstract, littered with blissfully intangible pop dynamics and somehow still manages to rock.”
Boomkat
