ALBUM REVIEW – ANATOLE MUSTER: HOPECORE

If you’re a regular in the galactic digital aether we call the Internet, you will have come across the tag ‘hopecore’. A trend that has proliferated on platforms like Tiktok, it has become associated with a particular brand of short video, distinctive by the plaintive synth-pad soundscapes ever-present in the background, created with the intention […]
I miss Britpop. I wasn’t there – about eight years too late – but I miss it. Its optimism, rugged energy and ability to weave between storytelling and subtle social commentary all still translates today. Perhaps now though we reflect on it with the bittersweet notion of nostalgia, longing to return to a time where […]

LIVE REVIEW – SUPERGRASS: MANCHESTER ALBERT HALL – 16/05/2025

ALBUM ROUNDUP WEEK ENDING 16 MAY 2025

Tune-Yards     Better Dreaming        Proudly waving an anti-fascist, liberation, freak flag, Better Dreaming contains some of Tune-Yards smoothest, funkiest, and most direct pop music to date. Carmel Smickersgill               Unsolicited Advice EP           Modern classical / outsider pop artist whose new EP is subtly darker in tone to its predecessor, Smickersgill is keen to stress that “Unsolicited […]
If you took lemonade, Pop Rocks, a little bit of mud and some glitter you would get something that resembles how this EP from Farmer’s Wife sounds. It comes as part of the ongoing shoegaze renaissance bringing a sort of backwoods goth vibe to the genre. I’m talking about the feeling of soil on bare […]

EP REVIEW – FARMER’S WIFE: FAINT ILLUSIONS

ALBUM REVIEW – SHUNKAN: KAMIKAZE GIRL

 I’m 23 now, which is a weird age. I’ve completely lost myself and have no clue what I’m really supposed to do anymore, I think some would call it a kind of burnout. The last year has really put me through it and yet I just can’t shake this feeling that there is something more […]
Metalcore is one of the only subgenres of metal that blurs the line between metal and more mainstream music genres such as pop. That is why people either love it or hate it. It is very rare to find a band that innovates metalcore as so many metalcore bands just focus on the catchy choruses […]

ALBUM REVIEW – SLEEP THEORY: AFTERGLOW

ALBUM REVIEW – EZRA FURMAN: GOODBYE SMALL HEAD

The greatest music can often be borne of desperation and crisis. While it is impossible to explain why this should be, it is surely linked to the catharsis of creativity being the best coping mechanism. Ezra Furman’s tenth album is a wonderful example of this. On 11 April 2023, she woke ill, limped to the […]
What can I say? Flying cars, floating boxing gloves, and a heartfelt finale—I fear I have become a massive Bryan Adams fan. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t expecting this performance to be very similar to Frankie Valli’s from 2023. You know, the almost ventriloquist act with overly enthusiastic backing singers doing most […]

LIVE REVIEW – BRYAN ADAMS: MANCHESTER ARENA – 09/05/2025

ALBUM REVIEW – CAR SEAT HEADREST: THE SCHOLARS

“You can love again, if you try again.” [Enter Stage] Everyone’s favourite internet obsessed band is back! …Well one of my favourites. The lovechild of Virginia-born Will Toledo, what once started out as a simple solo project, coalescing into a full band project, returns after 5 years with “The Scholars”, an album that, at its […]
