It’s time for another instalment of the semi-regular music feature that we were calling Six Degrees of Band Separation, but are now renaming Lend Me a Band (because Six Degrees of Band Separation is objectively a terrible title, and also takes ages to type, and I don’t want to get RSI).
The premise of Lend Me a Band is simple: we ask a band or artist we like to nominate a band or artist they like, who then nominates a band or artist they like, and so on, until we have a load of new and interesting music to listen to. Case in point: last time, we asked experimental rockers Squid to begin our chain of recommendations, and we ended up with a seriously eclectic array of artists, from dissonant folk musicians to a trippy cosmic shaman bloke.
