Stop me if this sounds familiar. If you were tuned into Rick Witter's #discodown on @minsterfm last night this post will come as no surprise to you. I know not all of you do (that's not to say I understand why you don't) and regardless this song today takes it rightful place in my #indieadvent24
When Everything Everything first appeared on the music scene a few years back, I have to say they failed to make an impression on me and despite a number of friends telling me how they good they were, I couldn't get into their music.

My initial preconceived ideas were blown out of the water this year when I first heard the excellent single 'Distant Past', followed this summer by one of my contenders for single of the year 'Regret'. Their album 'Get to heaven' features some great indie pop music and on the rare occasion they slow things down like on songs such as on 'No reptiles' they come up with some cracking lyrics including my strangest and most favourite line of the year “Baby, it’s alright to feel like a fat child in a pushchair old enough to run, old enough to fire a gun”.
In 2016 they'll further cement their indie middleweight credentials when they support Foals on a large arena tour in February.
If you were in hiding this summer than you won't have heard it but for my seventh post in this advent of indie music, my gift to you all is one of my favourite songs of the year, the ridiculously catchy 'Regret' by Everything Everything. Happy listening!
