The Pickup

Bands and new music for fans of indie-rock

Crushed Veneer

We're a punk rock band from London. We just released our first single last month and this will be our second. We have an EP coming out in May. Musically we're pretty energetic with elements of pop-punk, rock, and indie. Lyrically we're more along the lines of 'orgcore' bands with hints of emo.

For fans of

Ded Rabbit

‘Moonlight Horror’ was recorded at Rocket Science Studios in Glasgow and is available digitally at all the major outlets. Possibly the band’s finest moment to date, the new single is dynamic indie pop at its most infectious.

Percival Elliott

Hello lovely people!! Check out the second single off of our upcoming album Save Your Soul. It's the ultimate rock'n'roll track with gritty guitars, hard-hitting piano melodies and an infectious chorus! Follow our socials to see what else we have coming soon! Love from Percival Elliott.

Brutalligators

We're Brutalligators, a four piece from Herts, UK, who write some songs and then play them too loud and too fast. This is our first music video, for our some 'You're Brutalligatored', a stupidly titled song that's basically a short af rant about snowflakes, alt-right and apathy.

For fans of

Sven

We (Sven) just put out our first EP 'Seventeen' independently and wondered if you'd be kind enough to give it a spin when you've got a spare 15. <3
