ALBUM REVIEW – VARIOUS ARTISTS: TRUE NAMES

The first track took me straight back to my year 7 drama class, where we were all trying to look cool while doing freeze frames and delivering our intense spoken word pieces on why drugs are bad. It feels very unorganised and quickly put together. Saying this, though, it’s not an unenjoyable track. The bond […]
Rock influences ripple throughout the album by Scottish band Tide Lines, and the band write songs which resonate on such a high level, tracks that are memorable and evocative. From the start to the conclusion of their record Glasgow Love Story, the act generates an emotional twist, evolving with every earnest touch, and every beating […]

ALBUM ROUNDUP WEEK ENDING 2 MAY 2025

Lots to enjoy from this week’s roundup of new releases. Lael Neale      Altogether Stranger Clocking in at just 32 minutes, the 9-song LP covers an unexpected breadth of musical and lyrical terrain – from garage rock nursery rhymes and creation myths to Motorik dance dirges and solitary Omnichord meditations. Sally Potter    Anatomy          Filmmaker whose album […]
Stunning finger picking guitar blesses your ears as you are introduced to If You Asked For A Picture by Blondshell. ‘Thumbtack’ explores the theme of letting someone treat you horribly because at least they will treat you at all, to reference Phoebe Bridgers. This song is so easy to listen to as the melodies and […]

ALBUM REVIEW – IRON LUNG: ADAPTING // CRAWLING

Seattle powerviolence band Iron Lung pretty instantly became part of the canon of the hyper-fast, hyper-aggressive genre. Albums like Life. Iron Lung. Death, Cold Storage 1 & 2 and White Glove Test are now listed among genre classics over a decade their senior when recommending starting material to the uninitiated. That’s not even to mention […]
Arthur Russell is a big inspiration for me. His unconventional voice with his cello is a combination that has resonated with me ever since he was first recommended to me by a friend a couple of years ago. When I found out there was new material of his being released, especially live recordings, I was […]

ALBUM REVIEW – MODEL/ACTRIZ: PIROUETTE

I first heard Dogsbody, the debut album by Brooklyn based noise-rockers Model/Actriz, while in Berlin. Though unintentional, the setting proved fitting for an album set at steamy queer clubs on late evenings. Their new album Pirouette sees the emotional intensity being turned up to unstable levels, culminating in a message about reinvention against a backdrop of a world […]
It’s over 20 years since Propagandhi unleashed their angry, immature, skate-punk-rooted debut How To Clean Everything; it’s eight years since their last release, the high-energy, thrash-influenced Victory Lap. On my first listen of At Peace, I hear the age and roughness in Chris Hannah’s vocals, and he reflects that sense himself, singing “Behold the cruel […]

ALBUM REVIEW – PROPAGANDHI: AT PEACE

INTERVIEW – TRUPA TRUPA

Sometimes, a group can be so shape shifting and in such a state of constant musical flux that it can be hard to initially get to grips with them. That can be the only explanation as to why it took me so long to appreciate Trupa Trupa. It has taken their latest and most dynamic […]
It is hard to think about British music without thinking of Stereophonics. From their debut album ‘Word Gets Around’ released towards the end of the Britpop era, they jumped in on a huge cultural movement, with their own unique blend of gruff vocals and the traditional British rock that had topped the charts for the […]
