Friday is here, so I've got another Song-To-Go poll hot n' ready to go for you!

If you're new, hello and welcome! Song-To-Go is a weekly song poll released every Friday where I present you with new, lesser-known songs to listen to while you scroll.

As always, choose songs based on the 30-second Spotify snippets if you don’t know them (and I try to make sure there’s always something you won’t know). If you like what you hear, go listen to the full songs, they’re yours to carry along on your scroll!

I've scheduled this one in advance because do you know what I'm doing this Friday? I'm on the road losing my mind before a show by my OG favourite new band: Fontaines D.C.!! Maybe you'll find your fave new fave in these polls; I presume nothing but that would be unfair to these incredible bands. (Also, most songs-to-go are scheduled, to shatter the illusion)

[last week’s poll, playlist of everything so far (in order) and other/future picks]

This week— we’ve actually got a record 3 Welsh picks! This is pure coincidence, I built this list over the week. But that aside, we’ve got dark post punk, indie pop about the morality of robbing an IKEA, funky funky funk rock, surf rock from a band clearly thrilled to have access to a blue screen, Welsh indie punk from 2-time Welsh Music Prize winners and some Welsh rap that cleverly winks at the past. Idk, have fun. Incidentally, a lot of this week’s artists are those who have gone on to sound quite different in newer work. Growth, etc.!

Happy listening, tell me what you enjoyed, come back for more next Friday, reblog and trouble your friends; have fun!
