Please everyone, let’s have a whip-round and buy Henge frontman, self-styled Zpor and possible intergalactic bastard child of Roy Wood and Timothy Claypole, a second guitar. 

It was an ordinary school morning way back in 1973, and a young Miles Hunt descended the stairs of his parent’s Derbyshire home to be confronted by the startling sight of seven men sporting big hair, big clothes and perhaps even bigger hangovers, fast asleep on his floor.

Larry and His Flask are back after five years off and by God does 2018 need the power, passion and downright joy the band from Bend, Oregon infuse into all 20 million (approximately) notes of triumphant return This Remedy.

If you could have two of any element of a band, it’s probably unlikely your eyes would come to rest on the drummer – he’s just a guy who hits stuff and gets insulted but you don’t quite know why, right? Wrong. So, so wrong. If such thoughts ever crossed your mind (shame on you) then the eponymous debut from Wargirl will go a long way to opening your eyes to the power of percussion – and if it doesn’t, well, go and use your head to make a beat. It can be the drum or the drumstick, you choose. We won’t judge.
