Rating - 3/5 Always divisive, yet unquestionably talented and progenitor of some of the most iconic music that helped to shape the contemporary British scene; Morrisey returns with his thirteenth solo effort ‘I Am Not on a Dog on a Chain’. Granted, this magical, musical heyday of which I speak was of course established by... Continue Reading →

Rating - 3.5/5 Bermuda make an impact on their latest effort, “Bristol Lane” and with it, the band has crafted a track with all the physics that displays a fine display of modern rock songwriting. Blended with an early 2000’s post-hardcore influence, ‘Bristol Lane” shows great potential in a band that should not go under... Continue Reading →
Release Date - 10/4/20 Rating - 4/5 Doncaster and Bolsover boys, Children of the State release their latest single ‘Big Sur’, a mellow blend of surf rock and doo-wop delivered in a brit-pop package.

Rating - 1/5 Primo and all-female Australian rock bring us their latest single “Machine” from the upcoming second album “Sogni”. It has an unusual approach with the band members harmonizing together to sing the lyrics. This gives the vocals a kind of monotonous droning whine which I guess fits with the machine vibe but it...

Rating - 4/5 1920’s big band jazz, 12 bar blues, Duke Ellington. A good base for a classic playlist. Throw in garage, grime and huge dance floor fillers, industrial synth and booming bass and you’ve potentially made a massive mess. Or have you? City of Sin, the sophomore album from Dutty Moonshine Big Band is... Continue Reading →
Released: 28th March 2020 Rating: 5/5 What more fitting band could there be to listen to in self-isolation than Scottish Highlanders Isolates? Forces follows on from their debut single, Frost, which was released in December, and is a monumental piece of work. Forces incorporates all the best features of Frost, including the vast, chilling atmosphere,... Continue Reading →
What happens when the power goes out? When there’s no electricity to the instruments but the creativity still sparks? If you write an album acoustically you don’t take that material and try and amp it up. You let its soul ride out whole and pure. Risky business for most bands but when you are Led...
