Bands, labels, Indie businesses of all kinds hit up my DMs for winter sale bargain prices on OST Ads in an increasingly worldwide network of record stores...
Full page ads dropped by 50% across the board as a trial over winter to see if it works. Because we'd rather have cheaper ads that help more bands and indie businesses promote affordably whilst enabling us to print more magazines and hit more areas. taken in Solihull, Birmingham, UK by @ost_mag

We thought you might be having the post-festival blues, so maybe this might cheer you up. OST 6 will be out at the end of September, and here is a look at the cover, which, as usual, only tells you about the headline acts. 

We caught up with @chatpileband prior to @arctangentfestival to discuss their new album Who Loves The Sun and a lot of other things that weren't.

@thegreatestbane told us about the magnificent new album by @theoceancollective and the incredible @cultofluna, @joquailcello and @laneshiotayonii head-up part 1 of our ATG interviews. Yes, that's right, there's too much awesome shit for one issue alone!

As usual we will be in all @roughtrade shops nationwide BUT!!!

From this issue onwards you can also get it at

Rough Trade New York and Berlin too!

Out today on all streaming platforms: Null Assembly - Patient Ø album. This is a collection of the first Null Assembly EPs remastered, re-released and given a little sonic polish. When Ten Bus Audio ditched off the shysters at Distrokid, unfortunately the first two EPs went with it until now! Plus there are two unreleased tracks added for good measure, Your God and The Unwelcome Traveller. The first was written for a collaborative project that never quite came off, and so it's been reworked. Unwelcome Traveller was a track written for the Animism album that was a bit too upbeat for the mood of the album but is now here in all its bashy, filth-drenched glory.

Out on all platforms now through

Had loads of fun with this little box yesterday, thank you to @shanenapalm . This is the @somasynths Ether, it's a portable wide-band electromagnetic receiver—often called an "anti-radio"—designed to capture invisible electromagnetic radiation and convert it into audible sound. I've been playing with some new ideas and this little gizmo certainly started the process nicely. by @ost_mag

"Make It Worse/Dirtmouth" by @flailbandlondon is out today marking the first releases from the band. Flail is the sound of five friends finding joy in creating the kind of music they love. 

Formed through an advert in the Arctangent Facebook group and first meeting at the festival's ATG sign, Flail pulls heavily from influences like doom metal, post-metal, and post-rock, and settles on a slow build into heavy noises, all under Jenny Jones' aggressive soaring vocals. These self-released tracks were recorded at the famous Shaken Oak Studios in Oxfordshire and mastered by Magnus Lindberg from the legendary band Cult of Luna.

Flail have already played shows with Indifferent Engine and Oh Doom!, and have a forthcoming Portals show with Telepathy and Din of Celestial Birds on Oct 10 in London. by @ost_mag

After a couple of messages from a couple of people needing slightly more time and the fact that the 18th is not payday friendly, we're changing our print deadline to STRICTLY, the last day of the month and therefore our release date will be two weeks into the following month from now on. 

*We're not making any more changes now... 
(this year.)

The reason why we're doing this is because we genuinely want to be a magazine that we'd seek out, read and support. A magazine that's made by musicians for musicians and can provide something actually affordable for bands, artists labels and creatives so they can promote their releases, tours, works, businesses etc. OST now hits an appropriate global readership that isn't a huge waste of money buried in an algorithm by people who don't care.

OST is rapidly snayched up every month by the kinds of music lovers that care enough to buy physical music in bricks and mortar record shops. Unlike any other free magazine out there though, we put fifteen features with the most exciting and original bands and artists in our magazine first which makes it something people actually want to read and not scan and dump in a bin. Which guarantees, better engagement than flyers with the exact audience you want...

Your people. by @ost_mag

601 are releasing a brand new single entitled, Radiance via Ten Bus Audio/Earache Distribution on Nov 26th. 

This is the first track we have written as a four piece since Ari Malekpour (Hidden Mothers) and Matt Benatan (Din Of Celestial Birds) joined 601 as full members of the band and equal partners. After over thirty years recording and releasing music as a duo Nat and George were so excited by Matt and Ari's effect on the live sets that all four members naturally started creating and experimenting in the studio. It was clear that after a rich and storied journey, there was another twist, 

601 had become a band now.

We've independently released this extended mix of the  track through George's Ten Bus Audio label as we are still in the final stages of making the album that this is taken from and to be honest we're too excited about it to not share a track with you. 

We also felt as though we should properly introduce both Ari and Matt and how they have upgraded the sound of 601 in 2026 and this track is a good way to showcase that. Radiance is the sum of all our parts and elements from other bands and projects combined. 601 fuses post rock and shoegaze to deep electronica and experimental guitar abuse to create a chapter in an all too true story. Radiance is as much about tragedy as it is about fleeting moments of deceptive beauty.

Artwork by the incredible Rich @fall_into_frame whose work you might recognise from the gorgeous, striking @buttonpusherdiy event flyers and posters that turned our heads in such a big way that he's now doing the art for this album and some spin off projects too.

You can pre-save this single on all platforms using the Earache link in our bio.
