Their recently-released debut album might be my favourite of the 12 months to this point. They’re so authentically 80s nevertheless it doesn’t really feel like a easy pastiche. Plus, the songs are bulletproof.

The Strike – Well-known
They’re so good at this sort of comfortable — but anthemic — 80s rock.
Tamara Živković – Nova Zora
She barely rearranged the monitor and got here up with one thing much more large. That is HUGE!
TPCX – No He Don’t Deserve Me
My favourite super-underrated rock band is at it once more with one other killer monitor.

Vincint’s music is at all times larger-than-life and filled with emotional catharsis. This one’s no completely different.
