these girls fall like dominos…

“As soon as I love her it’s been too long
And I really loved breaking your heart
These silver apples will shine on I was wrong
The hardest love has the coldest end”
From London with love comes The Big Pink. A brash duo consisting of Robbie Furze (vox, guitars) and Milo Cordell (keys) who’ve [...]

don’t look now…here come the bunnymen!

Look. This band needs no introduction. The band were a perfect blend of the Doors, Bowie and the last vestiges of punk. A lead singer who not only was cool but personified the word and gave it a new meaning and thus offering a blueprint for future frontmen to adopt and follow. A guitarist who [...]

dark angels rise and cross the horizon…

“the time for revelation’s gone now
we can stand on our own feet
do you believe in power
while they march in their divisions
we’ll go dancing on their dreams
While the empires crash down”
Fresh off the release of their debut full-length Midnight Of The Century, we have the promotional film for the single Flight Of [...]

they are women, hear them roar!

Back from my near week-long sojourn into the ether, I have indeed returned, my dear friends!
Early last week, I witnessed a truly fun show put together by the members of the band, Electric Chariot to appreciate and highlight local female fronted bands. When I was told of this idea, I thought it was definitely a [...]

rising from the ashes of…

It was sad. Peter Hook posting on his MySpace that New Order were done, kaput and over. It was disheartening to read but at the same time, one almost felt a certain sigh of relief. Let’s be honest. The band was purely running on fumes on the last couple of records Get Ready & Waiting [...]

on a (much) lesser note…

Noel Gallagher, it appears dropped the bomb earlier today by walking out on Oasis. Needless to say that without Noel, there really is no Oasis. Sorry, Liam, I love ya but let’s be honest… Noel is and always has been the creative sparkplug of the band. As a fan since Supersonic, it’s my hope that [...]

thank heavens for little (rocker) girls…

Earlier this evening I did a wee hop, skip and a jump to a brand new DIY venue here in Da ‘Burg called Live From Shea Stadium affectionately titled after the recently torn down monstrosity in Flushing, Queens where my dearly beloved Metropolitans now play in Citi Field. Yes, I’m a jock. Deal.  So…the venue [...]

oh! the horror(s)!

“draw strength
walk on into the night
better you try to pass her by
walk on into the night“
When we last discussed the Horrors, their first single Sea Within A Sea was just making the rounds. Taken from the band’s second record Primary Colours, the single showed a change in direction from the debut [...]

a lesson in stealth. by radiohead.

“these are my twisted words
when i feel you still walking
i know i should not look down
but i’m so sick of just talking”
Here’s a question for you. When you’re the best band of your generation and feeling the constant nibbles at your ankles from the likes of lesser beings such as Muse or Coldplay that get [...]

the return of major tom…

It stands to reason that David Bowie needs no introduction in terms of his importance to popular music. That said, unless you’ve been in a bomb shelter the last 40 years or your name is Avril Lavigne then you realize that the Thin White Duke has had his finger in infiltrating the hearts and minds [...]
