/Tuesday Ten /562 /Everything’s Not Awesome
Maybe I put this one off after asking for suggestions in January because it wasn’t the right time. Maybe, I just knew that there would be a time and a place for it.

/Welcome to the Future /269 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 12-Apr 2024
Another lengthy wrap-up of new music either already here, or coming your way.
/Tuesday Ten /534 /I’m With Stupid
This week, I’m turning my attention to stupidity.
/Welcome to the Future /245 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 05-May 2023
Back from Whitby, and the usual Friday update to cover (it’s also Bandcamp Friday again today). In addition, my heart goes out to a long-time friend of this site, Sean Payne of Cyanotic, who lost his wife and is in hospital in Chicago himself this week after a car accident. You can help him out […]
/Welcome to the Future /227 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 28-Oct 2022
A quick, later post than usual this week. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others, and also a catchup of what I’ve posted recently. Thanks to everyone who sends me new music and events, keeps […]
/Tuesday Ten /507 /Some Like It Hot
Fancy a brew? The nights are drawing in, it’s getting cooler, and thus hot drinks become the desired thing for many on more occasions. That said, I drink tea regardless of the time of year.
/Countdown/2021/Albums
Onto the third and final week of /Countdown/2021 on amodelofcontrol.com, and this week I’m looking at the best albums of the year. As I’m sure I’ve explained before, I treat the “year” as 01-December to 30-November, to allow me a cut-off point, and to allow this to be done and dusted before Christmas so that […]
/Countdown/2021/Tracks
Continuing the amodelofcontrol.com review of 2021, which this week turns attention to the best tracks of the year. Next week will be the wrap of the best albums of 2021.
/Tuesday Ten/472/Broken / Fixed
This week marks the end of /Tuesday Tens for 2021 (they will resume in the new year), as I prepare to round up what has been a very busy year in the ever-widening corner of music that this website covers.
/Welcome to the Future/193/Events, Livestreams and new releases 05-Nov 2021
Now away from the working week for a bit, it has given me time to start catching up. It is, again, Bandcamp Friday today, so along with last week’s releases, there’s an awful lot to cover today. In the meantime, here’s the usual wrap of new music and suchlike this week.
/Welcome to the Future/185/Livestreams and new releases 20-Aug 2021
Still lots of cases, but clubs and gigs continue to open up. In addition, I’ve overhauled the events page in a big way, so see the link further down for that. There are still some things going on, as well as the usual slew of releases, so I continue to wrap up both, as well […]
/Welcome to the Future/178/Livestreams and new releases 18-Jun 2021
The weather has improved, Livestreams are back from me, (still) who knows what the future holds – especially as live events have been pushed back that little bit further. In addition, I’ve overhauled the events page in a big way, so see the link further down for that. Livestreams and waiting for new releases seem […]
/Tuesday Ten/452/Tracks of the Month/Apr 21
Into the fifteenth year of /Tracks of the Month posts, then, and this post has been written mostly during a quieter weekend, after a week that has seen a blizzard of unpacking as we settle into our new house on the Kent coast. One thing still not sorted, mind, is our internet – currently working […]
/Welcome to the Future/169/Livestreams and new releases 02-Apr 2021
Bandcamp Friday has rolled around again, so there’s yet again a ton of music to cover. In addition, I’ve overhauled the events page in a big way, so see the link further down for that. Livestreams and waiting for new releases seem to be the order of the day, for now, still, so I continue […]
/Tuesday Ten/429/Some Guys Have All The Luck
This year really has felt, in some ways, like the world has run out of luck. A pandemic, a succession of hapless, right-wing Governments manipulating just about everything in their favour, and the general feeling that it is going to be a long route out of this.
/Countdown/2010s/Tracks /180-161
Continuing the process of wrapping up the last decade before it disappears too far into the rearview mirror, this is the second part of the best tracks of the 2010s. This has been an interesting, and memory-laden trip doing this list. I’ve dredged up a few memories, reconnected with a few songs I’d not heard […]
/Countdown/2018 /Compilations and Re-issues
Welcome to the amodelofcontrol.com review of 2018, which begins this week. Over this and the next three Tuesdays, I’ll be rounding up the best music of the year in various categories. In coming weeks there will be the best tracks, the best albums, and the best gigs.
Welcome to the Future: 045: Events, gigs and new release round-up 22-June 2018
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 by no means an exhaustive list, and I’m always on the lookout for more to include. This week this is a double dose after having […]
/Transmission/009/the a-z of industrial/g/part one
The eighth part of Transmission, the a-z of industrial. This continues our look at industrial music, and is this week continuing all about bands beginning with “g”.
Welcome to the Future: 035: Events, gigs and new release round-up 30-March 2018
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 by no means an exhaustive list, and I’m always on the lookout for more to include.
