Most of you would have had listened to the Sex Pistols at least once in your lives, so this news must mean something to you. The Sex Pistols have signed to UMC last month and with that, they’re re-releasing their very first single, Anarchy In The UK in limited edition 7″ format on pictured vinyl...
North Atlantic Oscillation – Fog Electric
On first listen, the first thing that struck me was how complicated this album is. The album I’m referring to Fog Electric by North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO for short), a mammoth 10 track meaty offering due for release via the Kscope imprint (home to my favorite band The Pineapple Thief). What North Atlatic Oscillation is...
2:54
My new favorite obsession of the year. They’re 2:54 and I think I’m going to go and see them in Leeds tonight. What is it about them that enthralls me so? Check this beautiful video: [2:54 - You're Early VIDEO] [2:54 - You're Early] 2:54 are sisters Colette and Hannah Thurlow, joined by Alex and...
Amit – You Look Better Dead (feat Rani)
Argh, fucking hell. I can’t get this fucking tune out of my head. It’s been played loads over at Rinse FM, I think the last few podcasts by Flight and dBridge really nailed this one into my brain. It’s Amit‘s You Look Better Dead track featuring Rani on the beautiful / creepy vocals. A solid...
Strangers (Sensual Harrasment Remix)
A quick one here: we’ve covered Sensual Harrassment a coupla times on here and for good reason. It’s good to know that they’re still making music. In fact they’re in the final stages of recording the follow up to Alpha Draconis. But more on that in a seperate post. Right now, we wanna showcase a...
Diet Pills
This is a somewhat delayed post, and, I hope this is not going to ruin you quiet Monday bank holiday. :) So what’s the story with Diet Pills, then? Well, it went like this: I was at the Kylesa + Circle Takes The Square show at Josephs Well a coupla weeks back. And I saw...
Speak & The Spells
Here’s an oldie release via one of my fav labels, Robot Elephant Records. It’s Speak And The Spells‘ She’s Dead EP from 2010 and I was thinking, as I browsed RER’s back catalogue online, that this record is perfect for a not-so-sunny Sunday afternoon like today. I hope you like a little bit of garage...
HEROIN DIET
The pleasure of finding and listening to such ungodly sounds at this holy hour, its so fucking satisfying. Heroin Diet are a punk band from Manchester, fast 2 minute blasts with reverb vocals, very much in the vein as the recent new wave of punk upstarts like those Danish brats, Iceage. Heroin Diet are somewhat...
Beacons Festival Teaser Part 1
Personally, I think it’s our duty as a local blog to support a local fest. Especially one with an awesome lineup. Beacons festival is just round the corner and we’ve already done the big reveal for the headlining act. To get everyone hyped as we get closer to the date, the Beacons team have prepared...
Junior Boys
Chilled music. Chilled electronic music with a pop consciousness. Chilled electronic music drawn from almost every dance angle over the past 7 years without sounding overworked. Vocals that almost remind me of Death Cab For Cutie / Postal Service, just gentler. That’s why I like Junior Boys. And It’s All True is a gentle album,...
Death Rattle – Do As You Please VIDEO
And my favorite electronic duo Death Rattle returns with another new song and video for Do As You Please. This latest track sees them continuing their foray into dark electronica territory, armed with a video of intensely choreographed dance moves, Helen Hamilton almost like Natalie Portman in Black Swan, her vocals stronger than ever. Do...
Fear & Loathing at British Wildlife March 2012
Another amazing gig at British Wildlife on Saturday night. This is one of their house-party vibes kinda gig at RnR. Never a bad night. In fact, I got educated on Galaxians. How could I have missed out on this band for this long, I have no idea. Galaxians is Jed and Matt (of Azores, ex...
