My recent activity

Alex Kozobolis
Band of the week
This week has been pretty shit if I’m honest, grim weather, skint and to top it off I’m currently nursing two cracked ribs. I can’t seem to get myself into a comfortable position that doesn’t either hurt my ribs or make me...
BOTW - Dios Trio
Band of the week
It must be hard being a new band at the moment, where seemingly it's more about how much money you can spend on your PR campaign as opposed to what your music actually sounds like. A shite state of affairs, but that seems to be the nature of the...
Ben Sharp AKA. Cloudkicker
Interview
Ben Sharp is Cloudkicker. The name is held in almost mystical reverence by a devoted core of alternative music fans all over the globe.  This is not just down to his unique ability to create jaw-droppingly intricate, textured songs without...
Einar Stray - Chiaroscuro
Album Review
Einar Stray / Chiaroscuro
It can sometimes be quite difficult to instantly connect with an artist or piece of music, probably due the sheer volume of music I listen to on a daily basis. Sometimes I hear a band once and it does pretty much nothing for me; I cast it aside and...
El Dog / Hey Werewolves
Album Review
El Dog / Hey Werewolves
Honch clocking in. Towards the end of last year, I let things slip in favor of getting absolutely wankered in an attempt to drown out my unbridled hatred for the festive period. Well, now the dust has settled and everyone has boxed up all the...

After waking up with some serious beard envy over the resplendent facial furriness of William Fitzsimmons, I spend the best part of an hour trying my hardest to comb my own beard every which way in an attempt to match his standards. Needless to say...
Nils Frahm - Felt
Album Review
Nils Frahm / Felt
As the summer months draw to a close and the autumnal hue cascades across the trees with a fiery glow, the days get shorter and the nights get colder. Tonight is pretty much the same as any other night as I put on my wellies and my eight stone dog...
Dustin O'Halloran - Lumiere
Album Review
Dustin O'Halloran / Lumiere
A lot of people who I know don’t really understand the music that I listen to. Many of them think because I have a beard and I’m covered in tattoos that I’m a goth!?  Strange, I know. It’s not their fault; they just...

Interview
We have all been to some crap seaside town somewhere on a rundown old amusement park and seen some version of a one man band, if my memory serves me correctly it was probably frontierland in Morecambe for me, I was about ten years old. I’m...
The Caretaker- BOTW
Band of the week
Stockport born experimental music veteran James Leyland Kirby better known by some for his harsh, abrasive noise compositions under his late 90’s stint as V/Vm, butwhilstwielding his pig mask and flailing wildly about the floor at his live...
