Presenting…Coasts

Bristol five piece Coasts play what might be described as anthemic math-rock (that’s meant as a compliment, by the way). They seem to be fairly hard to pin down- no names given on their soundcloud, facebook or tumblr. Nor can I find a clear discography. However, they cite The Cure as one of their influences, which is almost always a good thing.

They formed in 2010 and released a couple of singles last year. (They are not to be confused with an American act by the same name, by the way.) But this April they will release a new EP Paradise from which the gorgeous ‘Oceans’ is taken. This is a song worth shouting about. You can pre-order this on iTunes.

Here’s the video, shot back in December when it was by all accounts very cold.
