Cut Me Down To Size: Watford alt-rock outfit Sinka look for their ‘Messiah’ on powerful new single

Posted on 8 March 2021

Feeding our knowledge-thirsty minds with that ultimate desire to explore more than what we can currently see, Sinka take the search to another level on the speaker-busting new single called ‘Messiah‘.

Sinka is a West Herts College-educated three-piece alt-power rock act, who tear down the school break room with that hungry reckless abandon, as they tease us with a taste of their new album ‘Take Me To The Skies’, which is set for release on 16th April 2021.

The pulsating story of finding the anointed one rampages through the speakers, looking for the truth and achieving true meaning by asking for the truth out up there, so that you can know for sure. This is the mission on this ferociously guitar-filled smash on the soul, as the vocals lift you up into another dimension.

‘Messiah‘ from the impressive and well-respected Watford, UK alt-rock act Sinka, is that real wake up call in the morning to get you out of bed on those gloomy days, when all you want to do is hide from the world.

Finding purpose should be the goal of us all, so that we can find that elusive inner peace that blankets so many eyes around us.

Hear this top shelf single on Spotify and find out more about their plans on IG.

She breaks free: Newcastle upon Tyne legends The Questionnaires show us that class is permanent on ‘The Illustrated Woman’

The Questionnaires show that years of experience and training does indeed matter, on a special song taken off their long-awaited album ‘Atlantic Ridge‘ and this is a spectacular single that has undeniable class that is called ‘The Illustrated Woman‘.

The Questionnaires are a North East, UK-based band lead by the lyrics and direction of Steve Hall and Jane Wade. A multi-genre group with elements of alt-folk, alt-country, soft rock and pure pop wrapped with so much authenticity, this dynamic group meshes in some of Tyneside’s most well-respected musicians to formulate a mixture of that quality golden sound, that you hardly hear these days.

Featuring a full six-piece band plus four guests to make this a truly memorable old school experience, you can’t help but smile and appreciate a quality band like this. From the classy vocals that put your anxious body at ease, to the drums, electric and acoustic bass guitars, violin, piano, organ (and probably more hidden instruments)- this is a something that the whole family can enjoy.

This is the story about how a woman has set herself free from being stuck inside as she knows herself so much better now. That ultimately rewarding feeling is so special and one that you only know when you feel it. From being inside the glass and not being happy with what you are doing, is an inner stomach-churning moment that you know you need to get out of and when you do- it feels like you can fly to the moon. Doing what you know you are capable of, is the only way to feel that genuine contentment in life.

‘The Illustrated Woman‘ from Newcastle’s The Questionnaires is a truly classic song from a rare, proper band that put their heart and soul into every note on this single. This is an experienced act that deserve respect in an often fickle music world that either makes you or breaks you in an instant.

They have proven that they wiser heads can still put on a show and that real musicianship takes years of practice and to master your instruments, you’d better be willing to put in the effort otherwise you won’t be timeless.
