Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 15th February: from Friday afternoon you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch395

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud GO tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Shake Chain - Copy Me

From the forth coming self titled release out on cassette & download 25/10/19 

Barry are South London’s quintessential queer guitar pop band and they are here to make you dance your socks off. Members Bart, Helen, Kathy and Mark made the leap from spectators to creators in mid 2018, as an extension of their life long collective obsessions with music. Inspired by a similarly named antipodean band, Barry take a multi vocal approach to classic jangle pop and make it their own with tales of public urination, gentrification and not giving up! Delve into the world of four gay ‘grown ups’ living in a city that’s becoming increasingly difficult to inhabit freely.

Tracklisting:

1. Our First Party
2. Posh Club
3. Man Pose
4. Stretch Your Legs
5. Shy Or Cunt
6. The World Is Not Your Toilet Sir
7. Liz Naylor
8. Baby Helped Mummy Write A Song

Buffet Lunch are back with a new EP called ‘Snap’!

“A brief pause at the side of the road on the way to the hotel at the end of the universe. Snap! Where is my prize? Smell the fruit on the journey back and wonder do you still like my trousers?”

Buffet Lunch are Neil, Luke, Perry and John, from Edinburgh. Lovely chaps. Previously Dave played synth and woodwind but he’s moved to Toronto, so now they just FaceTime him in the middle of their set to make up for it.

Track listing:

1. Brief pause 
2. Hotel at the end of the universe 
3. Snap
4. Where is my prize?
5. Smell the fruit
6. Do you like my trousers (live)

The Power of Rocks

Ashley's New Haircut  ft. Me Lost Me

Ten Times  ft. Me Lost Me

Power up! Our first new release of 2021 will be a debut album of odd-pop from Scottish group Buffet Lunch! Punchy, often thoughtful and pleasingly surreal at times ‘The Power of Rocks’ is an album filled with imagery and humour, packed with zestful tunes and lyrical weight too. Buffet Lunch’s songs are vigorous excursions, meandering into clattersome terrain as often as hiking up into the breezy, melodious foothills. The desire to lead the listener along on a curious tale helps tie things together. This is a debut LP of wide-ranging and personal themes, from irritation with out of touch politicians, to love letters to seaside living, to even the frailty and confusion of old age. No stone left unturned, if you pardon the pun. ‘Red Apple Happiness’ is the first single taken from the album, it’s befuddlingly magnificent video (made by Iain McCall) just premiered on For The Rabbits here: https://fortherabbits.net/2021/01/27/premiere-buffet-lunch-red-apple-happiness/

‘The Power of Rocks’ is available to pre-order now through our online shop on limited 180g orange vinyl: https://upsettherhythm.bigcartel.com/product/buffet-lunch-the-power-of-rocks-pre-order
