She may look terrible but Amy Winehouse has a voice to die for. The deep soulful melodies and fifties throwback tunes are wonderfully put together by Mark Ronson the super producer. If you had to check out only one song I'd go for Rehab. Superb. (45 words)
| 0 Comment(s)These post-punk teenagers are very good indeed. They are in the process of being signed by a major record label and you can hear why! Clarky Cat are influenced by Joy Division but their songs move them above teenage wannabies. 'Sightline' and 'Falling Into Place' are standouts. (47 words)
| 0 Comment(s)I was a big Python fan when I was growing up and this new stage show brought back lots of good memories. Based loosely on Holy Grail but with healthy dollops of the TV show and Life of Brian this is an hilarious way to spend an afternoon in London. (50 words)
| 1 Comment(s)This is a truly excellent new album from Amy. She has reinvented herself musically with the help of Mark Ronson and 'SALAAMREMI.COM' As usual her unique vocals are to die for. Stand out tracks for me are Back to Black, Rehab and Tears Dry On Their Own. (47 words)
| 0 Comment(s)Evan Dando knows how to please a crowd! This gig was wonderful - lots of songs from the new album (see earlier review) interspersed with songs from The Lemonhead's wonderful back-catalogue (including most of It's A Shame About Ray)! A great Sunday night out! (44 words)
| 0 Comment(s)Ahhh...I'm 16 again and it's 1992 - Evan Dando has resurrected The Lemonheads and he's spot on the money! He is the master of the short pop-punk pogo-fest! Poughkeepsie and Baby's Home are early favourites. can't wait to see the 'heads live in Nottingham on 15 October. (47 words)
| 1 Comment(s)This is glam rock at it's best, nothing much new but some catchy tunes including some guitar riffs which sound scarily like early Status Quo of all people! If you can get past this then the album's a good listen but never going to be a classic. (47 words)
| 0 Comment(s)Awesome album, you'll be taken back at what members of Slipknot can do without their masks on. I was pretty surprised when I first heard it, with the main single "30/30-150" being my favourite song on the record. (38 words)
| 0 Comment(s)Incredible, from start to finish, mixing heavy melodic guitars with the clear, ranged voice of frontman Ben Burnley. Highlights include the entrancing 'Dance with the Devil', and the agressive 'Had Enough'. Their third album release shows a matured band that still has so much more to unleash. (47 words)
