Tuesday Ten: 192: Reader’s perfect albums
This week, my Tuesday Ten series goes in a new direction – as I’ve not written it. A few weeks ago, I posted an innocent post on Facebook asking my […]
Memory of a Festival: 019: Infest 2013
For the tenth time – I started writing a seemingly ever-expanding review of the annual festival in 2003 – here goes with my coverage of Infest rundown for 2013. As […]
Tuesday Ten: 183: An Infest Retrospective
As Infest 2013 looms this weekend – and with the announcement that there won’t be an Infest in 2014, either – I’ve decided that it is time to look back […]
Tuesday Ten: 180: Tracks of the Month (June 2013)
Amazing how time flies – the beginning of next month marks ten years since I started blogging, so the corresponding post next month may be slightly different to usual. In […]
/Tuesday Ten/174/Live Albums
So…I’ve looked at the best gigs, live venues, and gigs at the London Astoria, bands at Infest, bands I’ve *not* seen live…but I’ve never had a look at live albums, […]
/Tuesday Ten/154/Here’s Tom With The Weather
A very British habit – and one of the cliched views of the British from around the world – is, apparently, to talk about the weather incessantly. I’ve never been […]
/Countdown/2011/Tracks
This is the eighth year that I’ve done a rundown of the music released in the past year – and every year I seem to end up with more material […]
Memory of a Festival: 011.4: Festival Kinetik v4.0 – Phase 04
As Sunday’s show began, it was plainly clear that the early bands were going to suffer from the same issue that Infest Sunday does – that everyone had a very, […]
But Listen: 107: Covenant – Modern Ruin
I think it's fair to say that I had begun to wonder if this album was ever going to appear. Endlessly delayed – 'Modern Ruin' was first revealed as the […]
Tuesday Ten: 121: Tracks of the Month (January 2011)
Playlists: Spotify Time for the first roundup of new music to recommend for 2011 – it’s my Tracks of the month January 2011.
/Tuesday Ten/120/Literature
The weird thing about writing these Tuesday Tens is that the ideas for some take a long time to come together. Others can have a whole load of suggestions come […]
/Countdown/2010/Tracks
There has been so much good music this year – as well as a few stinkers, frankly, but let’s not dwell on those, at least for now – that for […]
Tuesday Ten: 117: Tracks of the Month (October 2010)

/Countdown/1990s/Tracks /160-141
The third instalment of this lengthy rundown.
/Countdown/2000s/Albums /25-01
So today marks the last part of my rundown of the decade’s music. Next week will be the usual rundown of the month’s best tracks, and then I’ll be starting […]
/Countdown/2000s/Tracks /20-01
While for me the past decade hasn’t been the revelation musically that the 90s were, there was still some amazing material. And here are the top twenty songs of the […]
/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 […]
Into the Pit: 075: Covenant – Live at the Electric Ballroom – 05-April 2009
Arriving late is something of an unfortunate habit, but it doesn’t make too much different if the gig is running somewhat late anyway. But with the delays and then the […]
Tuesday Ten: 015: The Ghosts Of Infest Past
We are finally in the week preceding Infest, so it is perhaps only right for an Infest-based Tuesday Ten. Not just ten artists, though – this is something of a […]
