/Tuesday Ten/219/Outros
One of the interesting things about writing this series is that occasionally one post (and not necessarily at the time of writing it!) will inspire another, and then will have me wondering how I didn’t think of it before.

Into the Pit: 160: Deftones – Live at Brixton – 13-February 2013
Crikey. Over two years already since the last, breathless Deftones show at Brixton, and here we were again, the Deftones with another exceptional new album to showcase. Unusually for a midweek Brixton show, though, I'd ensured that we got there relatively early, as I wanted to see the first support act, Three Trapped Tigers. Apparently […]
/Countdown/2012/Albums
As I noted last week, 2012 really was a good year for music, as far as I was concerned, including a number of new discoveries.
/Countdown/2012/Tracks
Yet again, this list was a tough one. 2012 actually ended up being an impressive year for new music, as far as I was concerned, it just didn’t all come from the corners that I was expecting.
Tuesday Ten: 164: Tracks of the Month (September 2012)
Here is this month’s ten tracks you should hear.
/Tuesday Ten /142 /Good Sex
So, last week I covered “Bad Sex”. This week, it is the better side. The songs that I actually see as being sexy.
/Tuesday Ten/125/Numbers
It’s been a week of numbers. What with Daisy and mine’s sixth anniversary, yesterday being a year of me being in my current job, and at least two 40th birthdays in the past week – not to mention Daisy’s Grandparents’ 60th wedding anniversary in three weeks time, and with nuclear fears in the news again […]
/Countdown/2010/Gigs
The problem with my gig-going in 2010 wasn’t that I went to too few, or too many – although for various reasons I did miss a number of gigs I really wanted to see – but that trying to narrow the best of the year down to ten was probably as difficult as it has […]
/Countdown/2010/Albums
A good year for music, so here’s twenty albums I think were great this year.
/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 the first time ever in a year roundup I’ve stretched this one out to cover 25 songs, and I’ve still had to miss a couple […]
Into the Pit: 095: Deftones – Live at Brixton – 17-November 2010
We got there late, and so only caught the second half of Coheed and Cambria‘s set. A band that I’ve never really got into, and having read up since I didn’t realise that all of their albums are concept albums based on sci-fi stories written by one of the band. Well, it explains the prog […]
Tuesday Ten: 101: Tracks of the Month (May 2010)
Start of the month, so another quick roundup:
/Countdown/1990s/Albums /40-21
Onto part four of my 90s album run-down. There is again a Spotify playlist accompaniment to it, which is again only missing a couple of entries.
Tuesday Ten: 093: Tracks of the Month (February 2010)
Not having picked up much new music in recent weeks, it has given me a chance at last to try and catch up a little with various promo items and things have that come my way, that I may have missed mentioning at the time or hadn’t got ’round to listening to yet.
/Countdown/1990s/Tracks /120-101
The fifth 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 at some point after that with a rundown of the 90s in a similar style – after all, this autumn marks twenty years since I […]
Tuesday Ten: 064: Do You Remember The First Time?
As I said last week, I have suddenly had a short flush of inspiration for these Tuesday Tens at the moment. This one has taken me weeks to collate, gave me lots of ideas, and perhaps even more music to re-evaluate. This week it's about debut albums, and in particular ones I really like or […]
/Tuesday Ten/054/The London Astoria
A friends’ posting of this link over the weekend provided me inspiration for the subject of this week’s Tuesday Ten.
Tuesday Ten: 036: 90s II
As promised last week, here is the second part of my favourite albums of the 90s. Same rules as before, this time the list takes a more metallic edge, perhaps. These ten are in chronological order, just about, by the way.
