Do you know that simulation of joy? Found in smiles of people around you or in the tracks of bands that your friend has told you about and claim they are best in the world. I don’t know about you guys, but personally, I hate those things.
There’s nothing to be worried about here though, I Call Fives really […]

With a name that would strike fear in the hearts of most people in today’s technology times, The Blue Screen of Death is instantly interesting. Indeed this transgresses well into their music, not only in sound but more generally in their style and the atmosphere their music creates.
Opener Let It Go sets you up to do […]

Released on the 1st November was the American steel string guitarist Kyle Fosburgh’s second solo guitar album, The Traveller’s Journey. This is a rare type of album in that it is in the tradition of the solo instrument genre. It is almost like the modern day version of Bach’s Partitas or Paganini’s Caprices but following in […]

With successes such as supporting the likes of Feeder and Florence and the Machine, you’d expect great things from History of the Trade. Yet it’s not until the chorus of their track One Arm’s Length that they really show their true colours and play into a comfortable stride. The steadily increasing pace is enjoyable, the track […]

If you haven’t heard of Liz Lawrence, then now is the time to get listening out for her. Her vocals are like silk to your ears with an added edge that leaves you feeling refreshed and contented. Somewhat resonant of the likes of Florence and the Machine, there is suggested power behind her voice that […]

This single, taken from London based Damn Vandals’ recently released début album Done For Desire, is a joy. It is two tracks of tasteful rock music writing. On first listen you will find that it sounds instantly classic, it reminds me of the epically sprawling American rock music of thirty years ago. But this time it […]

Following the warm reception that was given to their previous two singles, the groovy Slam the Door, and the brown sugar like Candy Snake, Mancunian blues — soul three piece Turrentine Jones come back with their latest single, Show Me Mercy.

I have been looking forward to this gig for as long as I can remember, the fact I had ticket number 4 only proved this fact further.
The doors opened at 7 and the gig started promptly at 7.30 with opening band Porcelain Raft playing, I have listened to a few of their singles but that did not do them justice […]
