Coming out of Leeds, England, indie rock outfit Tillerman has recently revealed their sun-kissed new track, “Reputation”. You can easily hear the Yorkshire accent here. Considering most acts these days tend to hide behind a rather generic Atlantic singing voice, it’s really refreshing to hear that they are keeping true to themselves.
… asun-kissed, 90s-inspired Britpop gem packed with huge choruses and authentic Yorkshire charm.
This new single is rooted in 90s Britpop, but it also has a delicate mix of mid-2000s indie rock about it, almost like Oasis and The Kooks have decided to form a superband. It’s got that sort of broad appeal. The whole track is anchored by melodic hooks, big choruses, and charming vocals that you could easily be shouting back to the band within just a couple of plays.
The track is all about how fast rumours spiral out of control in the digital age. Which I remember when social media first started getting big and a couple of close friends of mine got into trouble because some rumours just went a bit out of control.
All in all, this Leeds-based band sounds very complete, and with songs stretching back to 2019, they’ve got plenty of awesome songs to listen to if you like what you hear.
