The past 12 months that was 2017 has been one hell of a year for music for so many reasons. Some of those reasons aren’t so great, as we all know, but in terms of new records, this year has delivered in absolute spades, both from bands and artists we’ve known and loved for years, and also shining new talent breaking through from the underground.

It’s always pretty tough (to put it mildly) to narrow down the cream of the crop from the entire year, but we sat down, racked our brains to the absolute limit, and have knocked into shape what we feel are the top ten albums of the year. So, grab a drink, take a seat, get nice and comfortable, and read on.

British alternative rockers Deaf Havana have had one hell of a year following the release of their fourth album ‘All These Countless Nights’, including a pretty busy summer of festivals across both the UK and Europe.

Norfolk based alternative rockers Deaf Havana have had a pretty busy and exciting year so far off the back of the success from their recently released fourth full-length record, ‘All These Countless Nights’. They’ve now dropped a brand new song, ‘Sickago’.

Due to ongoing and rather adverse weather conditions that have been affecting the Y Not Festival grounds over the weekend, the organisers have now confirmed that they’ve been forced to cancel today’s (July 30th 2017) date of the event, following advice and consultation from the local and relevant authorities.

With a summer of festival appearances ahead of them along with a headline UK tour in November, British alt rockers Deaf Havana have just unveiled a video for ‘Happiness’, the latest single to come from their recent studio LP, ‘All These Countless Nights’.

Following a few more weeks of festival appearances, including a special fan-voted setlist at 2000 Trees Festival, British rockers Deaf Havana have announced that they’ll be heading out on a headline UK tour of their own this November.

2000 Trees is looking mighty fine this year…

Not only are Lower Then Atlantis, Milk Teeth and Mallory Knox (among many, many others) set to play the festival in Cheltenham, Deaf Havana have just announced they’ll be playing a set decided by the fans.

The day that the 2017 edition of Slam Dunk Festival is upon us draws ever closer, and with that the organisers have now announced a further wave of bands that will be composing this year’s line-up, which include what will be We Are The Ocean‘s final ever shows before parting ways.

The latest names to join the May Bank Holiday festivities include Frank Iero & The Patience, Deaf Havana, Boston Manor, Madina Lake, and more.

Deaf Havana have been through a steadily constant amount of change to get to where they are today. They’ve had a fluctuating number of band members, and have found themselves straddling music genres until the success of 2013 release, ‘Old Souls’, provided some much needed stability to the quintet. This record returned them to the forefront of the music scene, albeit in a more mainstream manner.

With the release of their highly anticipated fourth album ‘All These Countless Nights’ fast approaching, British alternative rockers Deaf Havana have just unveiled a video to accompany the record’s latest single output, ‘Fever’.
