/Tuesday Ten/490/Different Drum
A curious quirk of this series is that I occasionally get suggestions from friends for a subject to cover, and often, they are smart, considered subjects that I might not […]

/Tuesday Ten/469/Four Letter Word
I conclude – well, kinda – the short song title series with four-letter-word song titles, and this one took a lot of work.
/Tuesday Ten/415/Senses Working Overtime/Sight
Just over two years ago, I asked for suggestions around songs involving the senses. Needless to say, this ended up being a gargantuan thread, with the easy decision made to […]
/Tuesday Ten/388/The Machineries of Joy
Over the past month or so, I’ve driven more than I have in the past few years. I’ve had the company of my wife, our music and the drone of […]
/Tuesday Ten/385/I’m So Happy You Failed
If like me, you’ve been despairing of politics of late, it won’t have escaped your notice that most right-wing leaders appear consumed by their own self, in extreme forms of […]
/Tuesday Ten/330/Dream A Little Dream of Me
Back to Tuesday Tens after a bit of a break (an enforced one, really, after a busy period of work and other commitments), and I return this week to a […]
/Transmission/005/the a-z of industrial/d
The fifth part of Transmission, the a-z of industrial. This continues our look at industrial bands beginning with “d”, and it’s a mix of new and old.
Tuesday Ten: 283: Tracks of the Month (February 1997)
A second month of digging back into my memory bank to look at releases from 1997.
Tuesday Ten: 280: Tracks of the Month (January 2017)
We’re into a new year, I’ve already got started with other posts, so here we go with the first new tracks post of 2017.
/Tuesday Ten/259/Age of Consent
I have no idea how this one came up. A particular song was mentioned in the pub on the Monday night of Whitby last month, and all of a sudden […]
/Countdown/1980s/Tracks /20-01
I actually started this 80s rundown a couple of years back, but life and other things have rather got in the way. So, a little bit of spare time has […]
Tuesday Ten: 207: Fetish
Actually inspired originally by seeing the godawful Akon’s Smack That a while back, this week’s Ten has been on the backburner for a few years, and a recent flash of […]
/Countdown/2013 /Disappointments
Regular readers will be well used to this by now – at the end of each year, I round up my year in music over the course of successive weeks. […]
Into the Pit: 172: Depeche Mode – Live at The O2 Arena SE10 – 29-May 2013
I think that most of us that listen to a lot of music, and have been in one “scene” or another have a bucket list of bands that they simply […]
/Tuesday Ten/176/Depeche Mode covers
I’ve had this on my “to do” list of Tuesday Tens for about two years, but to be honest, I’ve been awaiting the right moment to use it. But with […]
/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: 107: Stuck on Repeat
When I first thought about it, this was inspired by a seemingly never-ending parade of bands who seem to have come up with nothing new themselves that I keep hearing.
Tuesday Ten: 088: Bad Cover Version
Ok, for the return of the Tuesday Ten for 2010, this week is the first of a pair of posts that are companions of sorts. Both of them will be […]
/Countdown/2000s/Tracks /80-61
Further to last week, it’s time to move on to the next stage of my rundown of the last decade.
/Tuesday Ten/068/Religion
With it being Easter this weekend, I thought it perhaps apt that I turn to the subject of religion for this week’s TT. Although not unexpected, perhaps, with the music […]
