EP Review: Eerie Glue//Joey Fourr – ‘Yr New Favourite EP’
I reckon every recording artist both signed and unsigned pre-about-2000 has at one point in their career recorded music in the Lo-fi style. The mental image of a young Rick Astley crooning into a 4-track tape recorder accompanied only by a rickety nylon-string may startle more than say, Keith Morris doing it, but I suspect …
Track: Tom Williams and The Boat – Hurricane, plus album news
Bookish but brilliant indie rockers Tom Williams and the Boat have returned with a new single, Hurricane, out on March 25th with their third album Easy Fantastic following on May 19th. The whole thing was recorded at Abbey Road with Ian Grimble on the production duties. It’s sees the bands sound continuing to develop, more …
Track: The Editors – Sugar
I seem to remember Editors arose in the slipstream of Interpol when there was a sudden burst of pseudo-Joy Division/Goth-lite bands (whose alumni also included White Lies).

Track: Apperaat – Deliver, plus video
We always have a motto, ‘It has to be pleasant’. So say Apparaat, a new Danish/Dutch duo comprised of Tam Vibberstoft and Nils Gade. Its too easy to describe the two as a band, they are much more than that – more a complete artistic package. They make music, take photos, do performances, write ambient …

Punk rock icon Brody Dalle has just unleashed her latest single, ’Meet The Foetus/Oh The Joy’ as a taster for her eagerly anticipated new album. Having previously …

Following in his fathers illustrious steps, Bob’s eldest son Ziggy is returning with his fifth album, Fly Rasta, that comes out on 14th April via Tuff Gong records.

Track: Blood Red Shoes release ‘Blood Red Shoes’ + Tour, with UK dates.
“You might not even wake up tomorrow, so you might as well experience everything right f##king now.” Apparently this is the new dictum that Blood Red Shoes are living to. By their own admission they have spent far too much time focusing on negative elements and are adopting a more gung-ho approach to life. Not …

Discover: Baby In Vain.
Denmark, home of Vikings, bacon and, allegedly, the happiest people in the world. It’s also the stomping ground of all-female rock trio, ‘Baby In Vain’. Since forming in 2010, Benedicte (flastøøb), Lola, and Andrea, have impressed fans and critics alike, gaining a reputation for staging some pretty high energy live shows, which have been known …
