Just one week to Infest, and while we wait, here’s this week’s new release roundup. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a […]
I’m British, so of course, I say sorry. Buzzfeed came up with 65 ways Brits say sorry, there are endless jokes about it, but the reality is, I and many […]
Another Friday, another round-up. As always this is a look at upcoming releases, relevant music news and upcoming events and gigs worth spending some of your time at. It is […]
Back to the first Tuesday of the Month now, after a really, really busy month that left me without time anyway last week – that and there were a couple […]

I’ve been thinking a lot about death of late. A friend sadly passed away on Sunday night after a long battle with illness, while in the musical world the death […]
Today’s Tuesday Ten is slightly different to the norm. Mainly because I’ve not been to that many gigs this year, here are five of them worth mentioning.
Ok, so time for my roundup of the best albums of the year.
The end: the top twenty at last.
Part eight, and we’re nearly there.
2009 has been an amazing year for gigs (how I’m going to pick a best of some of them, I have no idea), and having already seen a shorter, festival […]
Following on from the rundown of my top 100 tracks of the decade, it’s now time for my top fifty albums of the decade, which starts today and will be […]
So, then: ten tracks for the month.
