Sweating Someone Else's Fever

Recharged and looking sharply at a world gone sideways, Staines' finest Hard-Fi make their long-awaited return with brand new studio album 'Sweating Somebody Else's Fever', their first in 15 years.

Written and recorded throughout 2025 in their longtime ex-taxi-office-turned studio Cherry Lips, and produced by frontman Richard Archer alongside longtime collaborator Wolsey White, the album looks outside the window to the fractured present, and paints it in bold musical strokes, with the same sharp-eyed social commentary that powered their classic debut 'Stars of CCTV', but with fresh perspective, new sounds and hard-earned freedom.

Neko Case

The Harder I Fight The More I Love You

An unforgettable portrait of an extraordinary life-one forged through a poverty-stricken childhood in 'slummy, one-horse towns'; obsessive desire; bursts of comedy; and indispensable friendships, reflecting on the way art, music, and a deep connection to nature helped her on a singular journey to become a beloved, Grammy-nominated artist. Neko Case has long been revered as one of music's most influential artists, whose authenticity, lyrical storytelling, and sly wit have endeared her to a legion of critics, musicians, and lifelong fans. In The Harder I Fight The More I Love You, Case brings her trademark candour and precision to a memoir that traces her evolution from an invisible girl 'raised by two dogs and a space heater' in rural Washington state to her improbable emergence as an internationally-acclaimed talent.

In luminous, sharp-edged prose, Case shows readers what it's like to be left alone for hours and hours as a child, to take refuge in the woods around her home, and to channel the monotony and loneliness and joy that comes from music, camaraderie, and shared experience into art. The Harder I Fight The More I Love You is a rebellious meditation on identity and corruption, and a manifesto on how to make space for ourselves in this world, despite the obstacles we face.

Hard-Fi

Don't Go Making Plans

Their first new material in ten years - Hard-Fi make their welcome return with brand new EP ‘Don’t Go Making Plans’ through Ignition Records.

Rolling around a sun-scorched groove and boisterous beats, title track ‘Don’t Go Making Plans’ is an immediate, soul-infused summer anthem, recorded at the band’s own Staines studio, produced by frontman Richard Archer and long-term contributor Wolsey White. It’s the end result of the first session together since 2011 album 'Killer Sounds' and follows a series of sold-out tours and live shows over the last 18 months.

Hard-Fi

I Shall Overcome

Hard-Fi return with the anthemic new single "I Shall Overcome".

Hard-Fi

Once Upon A Time In The West

"Once Upon A Time In The West" is a 12-track tour-de-force of genre-hopping beats, stomping Motown undercurrents, indie purr and rapid-fire delivery, it boasts the lead single "Suburban Knights" plus 11 other blistering tracks. Having upped the ante from 2005's debut, they've remained raw and relevant with personal anthems set against a backdrop of sonic triumphs – proving their status amongst the UK's biggest and best.

Four Day Hombre

The First Word Is The Hardest

The second single from Leeds band Four Day Hombre. "The First Word Is The Hardest" is a more edgy and intense offering, sounding like Doves, Radiohead or The Frames crossed with The Editors, or Nick Drake fronting Muse.

Hard Fi

Cash Machine

Hard-Fi are the product of their suburban West London environment; the sound of twenty-something gun-slingers on the minimum wage. It's the sound of a band weaned on the heady concrete glamour of The Clash, Dexys, Curtis Mayfield, and Happy Mondays. In love and in debt - the raw materials required to soundtrack a life of box-fresh Adidas, Berwick Street vinyl, and the black economy. This track was originally release as their debut single and has been unavailable and much sought after since.

Hard Fi

Living For The Weekend

The title says it all: "Living For The Weekend" is a hedonistic blast of guitar riffs and synth stabs, documenting the grinding out of nine-to-fives in pursuit of that Friday night clubbing buzz craved by a whole generation of British society. For Hard-Fi the setting is Staines, tipping a nod to the town's infamous night club Cheekees, but this is a song for anyone in any town. As front man Richard Archer sings: 'Oh yeah, I look around me and I can see. This room is full of people like me. All living for the weekend'.
