There’s also lashings of new Irish music. this week’s big releases come in EP format with St. Bishop’s self-titled debut and Melt’s Signal EP – both of which you can listen to below the main playlist.

Ireland’s heaviest acoustic band The Scratch have teamed up with the RTE Concert Orchestra to cover System of A Down’s Aerials – all other acts should now cease covering Aerials.  Just Mustard have previewed their next album with another blast of shoegaze tinged post-punk Mirrors.

N.O.A.H follow-up last year’s Echoes of The Night EP with new single The Way We Are Told also providing the radio friendly pop rock vibes are Hudson Taylor with Hold Out Hope. London based Matt Taylor returns with the Holly Humberstone-esque April 13th.
