8. Slaves Announce Their Arrival
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AchzCz1RI7s Visceral punk-duo Slaves have enjoyed a storming 2015 so far, releasing three raucous singles and a debut album (which entered at number 8 in the UK Album Chart). They also tore the doors off Radio 1's Big Weekend, inviting grime megastar Skepta onstage to belt out a cover of his conservative-baiting single Shutdown. Their Glastonbury set was equally well-received, fans lapping up one anarchically angry protest track after another. Although genuine punk acts, by their very nature, usually enjoy volatile, short-lived careers, Slaves have set themselves in good stead for future success with an explosive six months - capped by their John Peel Stage appearance on Saturday.
