'A stunning, soul-baring release from one of Wales’ most evocative bands.'

Bullet Brain is a statement record. Fast, fierce and emotionally charged, it captures ALRIGHT at the exact moment potential turns into momentum. This is the sound of a band outgrowing the grassroots and stepping into something far louder.

Out of the Blue” isn’t just another single; it’s a statement of intent. A sign that Marseille aren’t just ones to watch — they’re already happening.

Our brand new single 'Falling Down' just made it's radio debut on @thisisthemusic.bsky.social! It feels fitting that Mark got to spin it first. He's done a lot for our band, and does so much great work for independent music. You can listen back to his show on mixcloud!
Huge thanks to the legend that is Mark Speller at @thisisthemusic.bsky.social for the review of our brand new single Falling Down which drops on all streaming platforms on Wednesday!

Lovin You is not just a return, it feels like the perfect album for this moment in his career. it’s a reaffirmation that @richardashcroftofficial remains, defiantly and gloriously, one of Britain’s most vital voices.

After a decade away from the studio, Britpop hero’s @dodgyband.bsky.social return with Hello Beautiful, and it’s a reminder of just how good they are

You’re welcome. It was great to meet you too. Looking forward to today’s Xposure show!
