It seems like there are quality bands popping up in Scotland at an alarming rate at the moment, and what makes it so exciting is that they aren’t all tied to a single sound, or movement, they are spread across the musical landscape evenly. So for every 16-year old Dubstep producer like Hangman you get a band as simple, melodic and perfectly formed as Male Pattern Band.
To date they have self-released two EPs of their self-proclaimed “Junkyard Pop”. Their trademark song, “Raining”, encapsulates everything that’s great about the band: ramshackle production, big simple melodies and heartfelt and well-observed lyrics. They are young, and seem to have that ability to be able to toss off great little ditties at will. Have a listen below to a band that surely have a good future ahead of them.
Unfortunately, there isn’t much in the way of info online about these guys so I can’t tell you much more, but we’ll keep an eye out and keep you updated with any future releases. Daft name – great tunes.
