Who would've thought that Muse-style riffs over Led Zeppelin-esque drums with echoing psychedelic voices of an early 90's indie-ness would work? I'll tell you who, Little Grim.

They have emptied those very elements and more into their musical cauldron and created a magic of their own. Very experimental at times, especially on the drum front which can appear to be venturing into the Bruford/King Crimson realm of progressiveness but not so far as to isolate the pop fan as they soon return to familiar territory.

You can either check them out here , or see them live this Friday April 8, where they'll be débuting at the Crown and Treaty pub on Oxford Road, Uxbridge .

A three piece known as According To You share the Treaty limelight this Friday with a lively arsenal of catchy songs you can really dance to. London through and through, According To You have a knack of perfectly setting everyday phrases to music which enhances their already hook laden repertoire nicely.

Need To Know (on their Soundcloud ) is a particularly fine example of how they work so well.

It's free entry into the Crown and Treaty before 10pm and just £5 after. Rocheii who I mentioned last week are also on the bill.

Be sure to tune into my interactive HayesFM radio show EVERY Tuesday at 9pm to hear live and original performers. PLUS more local live music news. You can find HayesFM on 91.8FM in London or GLOBAL online .
