East London fourpiece SHINERS have announced the release of their debut EP Now with lead single Generation Y, both released via AWAL on 24thNovember. The upbeat single has a chorus reminiscent of 90s Supergrass and a spacey alt outro which could easily be from Zenyatta Mondatta era Police. Lyrically it reflects the disquiet felt by the band’s peers in 2017; a tale of festival-going youths watching the same … Continue reading MM Shorts 985: SHINERS
