Part three of the round-up of 2016 comes to you from the final week of our honeymoon (from the warm sunshine of the Dominican Republic). Sorry, not sorry.

Tuesday Ten: 273: Tracks of the Month (October 1996)
Onto part nine of my 1996 roundup. As a reminder, I’m marking twenty years of writing about music (my writing long pre-dates this website going live) across this year with a monthly look at ten releases from 1996, where possible in chronological order.
Tuesday Ten: 254: Tracks of the Month (March 2016)
For the third month in a row, it’s twenty songs to wrap up the past month – the avalanche just keeps on coming.
Welcome to the Future: 002: 2016 – Upcoming Music
I’ve done this for a good many years now, and 2016 will be no exception – a round-up of confirmed and potential releases relevant to amodelofcontrol.com and it’s readers. This is by no means an exhaustive list, and some may not be announced yet. Indeed, some of those announced already may change, or those that […]
Tuesday Ten: 157: Tracks of the Month (June 2012)
Here are ten more songs and artists you should hear about, that have been rocking my world over the past month.
/Countdown/2009/Albums
Ok, so time for my roundup of the best albums of the year.
Into the Pit: 084: Paradise Lost – Live at Carling Academy Sheffield – 04-November 2009
Back from Whitby for two days – where the sum total of live bands I saw was zero – and off to the first gig of what could be a busy November.
Tuesday Ten: 086: Tracks of the Month (October 2009)
This month’s ten tracks you should hear.
/Countdown/2000s/Tracks /40-21
The penultimate part of my 2000s tracks rundown. Next week will be the usual rundown of the month’s best tracks, and then I’ll be starting at some point after that with a rundown of the 90s in a similar style – after all, this autumn marks twenty years since I first got into/was exposed to […]
Tuesday Ten: 055: Tracks of the Month (October 2008)
It feels like a long time since I last did one of these. This week it is time for my usual monthly rundown of my top ten tracks from the past month or so. I struggled for a list for this month, too. Any suggestions for new music I should be listening to or hunting […]
But Listen: 069: Draconian – Turning Season Within
Contrary to seemingly popular belief, “romantic” and/or “gothic” doom metal does not end with My Dying Bride. While that band have somehow come through what might say was a critically weak patch to return rejuvenated with a couple of cracking albums, peer behind them to the numerous bands they have clearly influenced and there are […]
/Tuesday Ten/009/Tracks of the Month/June 2007
A new month, so it’s time for my usual rundown of 10 tracks that I think everyone else should hear. A real mix of genres this month, as well.
/DJ/Stormblast/021/23-March 2006
/Stormblast last night was a bit of a strange one. Not a bad turnout, and an interesting set of people, too. We have gained a new set of regulars in addition to the rest whose requests are sending us in a different direction again! Look for some new developments with Stormblast in the coming month […]
/DJ/Stormblast/018/02-March 2006
Stormblast continues to surprise me, with it being always busy, now, with what appears to be an always growing number of regular visitors. So thanks as always to all that came down. Look out for something special being planned for a future Thursday, if I can pull it off!
/DJ/Stormblast/016/16-February 2006
/Stormblast last night was a little quieter than recent weeks, with many of the regulars missing for one reason or the other. Ho hum – there's always next week. Which reminds me – next week is Foreverguardian and Barney DJing, as I am off to see Goldfrapp at Sheffield Octagon.
/DJ/Stormblast/006/08-December 2005
Stormblast continues to grow and get better – many, many thanks to all that come down for it, despite my initial reservations it has done really well. I just wish we had more time to play all the stuff that is requested!
/DJ/Stormblast/004/24-November 2005
The fourth night of Stormblast wasn’t too bad, though, considering we lost a number of our usual audience to a gig at D’n’R Live.
/DJ/Stormblast/002/10-November 2005
The second night of Stormblast introduced our first – of many – guest DJs over the few years that the night ran. We always had a policy of suggestions for songs we should play – extreme metal was, and still is, an extraordinarily broad church – and so having other DJs in as we needed, […]

Another slow start.
/DJ/tcf/v1/011/07-Jun 2004
A hot night, after an unexpected week off the previous week.
