Realise is the new track from Liverpool five piece Tear Talk, aka Josh Miller (Vocals/ Guitar), Liam Bates (Guitar), Iain Currie (Bass Guitar), Luis Winder (Keyboards) & Tom Manning (Drums). It comes off the back of their now long sold out debut 7″ ‘B R E A T H E’, which came out last year …
New Music: Andrew Keoghan releases the quirky indie pop of Better Company
Hailing from Auckland, New Zealand and now based in Brooklyn, Andrew Keoghan seems to have successfully infused a cool naivety with a quirky, knowing feel to his new single, “Better Company”. I can’t help think of archetypal New York band, Tom Tom Club in the bouncy instrumentation and Jonathan Richman or David Byrne in the …

From an old record box: Brave Captain – Better Living Through Reckless Experimentation EP
On settling down to review this EP I was expecting it to at least be interesting, not least given that I couldn’t really remember anything positive about it. When I bought catalogue number WEBB009S I only played it once, thinking it was complete crap. I’m sure ex-Boo Radley songwriter Martin Carr thought that he had a great …
From an old record box: Prefab Sprout – Life Of Surprises
I’m doing this the wrong way ’round, mainly because that’s how this record was purchased. I was only really interested in the b-side of catalogue number SK 63. ‘The King Of Rock ‘N’ Roll’ is the only Prefab Sprout I can remember being able to stand – and nothing has changed over the years. I’ve a new …
From an old record box: Patrick Park – Honest Skrew
The old record box has thrown out some lovely surprises in this month’s bumper crop: a reunion with a clinical pop masterpiece in Roxette’s ‘It Must Have Been Love’, the indie rock rush of The Wedding Present’s ‘2, 3, Go’, and an R.E.M. 12” of high quality (‘Orange Crush’). But there have also been some …
News: Rustie announces World Tour, plus free download
Following on from his much vaunted appearance at the Coronet, where he appeared as a special guest of Danny Brown, Glasgow beatmaster general Rustie has announced a couple of exciting pieces of news. Firstly, he will be heading out on a World Tour in support of his brilliant (really, read our review) album Green Language. …
New Music: Falling In Reverse – God, If You Are Above…
The latter years of the first decade in the millennium were not Ronnie Radke’s finest hour. After leaving his role as vocalist in Escape The Fate, and spending some time in jail, many people probably didn’t have much faith in his return to the music industry. However, with his incarceration spent writing songs for his …
From an old record box: Teenage Fanclub – Start Again
I first bought some Fannies in the early 90s – ‘The Concept’ on cassingle – and then had little to no contact with them until ‘Howdy !’ around early 2001. That album and I spent a good deal of time together before I finally got around to buying some more of their stuff, but the …
