Video Of The Day: Steven Wilson – The Raven That Refused To Sing

Steven Wilson Well there are music videos and there are short films/animations that more than bring a song to life, this is certainly one of the latter. It’s just lovely. OK so it might all be a bit on the slow and long side but it is an investment of your time I assure you. … Continue reading

EP Review: Joe Banfi – Nomads

Nomads Released 4th March 2013 I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Joe Banfi play live and watch the headline act watch him too, his eyes focused in wonder at the stage, the same as mine, in wonder with just how incredible the sounds were. One man, two microphones and a guitar, that’s all there was … Continue reading

EP Review: The Heartbreaks – Hand On Heart

Hand On Heart Released February 4th 2013 When I saw The Heartbreaks play live a good few years ago I was excited about their potential. When the album came out I was admittedly a little underwhelmed despite giving it many chances. I just couldn’t get the same vibe that I did watching them play. Now … Continue reading

Video Of The Day: Bastille – Pompeii

Bastille The thing about Bastille creator/frontman Dan Smith is that he and I have similar obsessions; music and film. It’s clear from the video of Pompeii that he has clear styles that he likes too. Having found an interest in horror films from a young age Dan went on to enjoy European cinema, later moving … Continue reading

Video Of The Day: The Staves – Winter Trees

The Staves One of the cutest, cleverest and stylistically perfectly matched videos I have seen in a while. The directors for Winter Trees are Karni and Saul who come from the Oscar-winning animation studio, Aardman Studios (and I think that shows). Winter Trees is taken from The Stave’s debut album Dead & Born & Grown, … Continue reading

Single Review: Chapel Club – Good Together

Good Together Released March 4th 2013 I am in no doubt whatsoever that  this new direction from Chapel Club will cause uproar with some of Chapel Club’s pre-existing fans because this is pretty far from anything they have done before. You know what I say to this? Good! Fans who can’t support a band’s choice … Continue reading

Album Review: The Joy Formidable – Wolf’s Law

Wolf’s Law Released 21st January 2013 I’ve had this album for a little while now and I’ve given it a number of listens on numerous occasions and I’m still finding that I can pretty much take it or leave it. This is not the expected response as I was looking forward to this album. Wolf’s … Continue reading

Video Of The Day: To Kill A King – Cold Skin

Cold Skin If you are a regular visitor you might see that one of my favourite things about music videos is that not just the way it compliments a song but the way a clever video can tell a story in as much time as a full feature length film might and this video certainly … Continue reading

Single Review: Folks – My Mother

My Mother Released 3rd February 2013 The Black Keys have done a lot for bringing rock n roll back into the public ‘s conciousness over the last year and a bit despite having been around for a very long time, (the power of sync deals huh) and Folks have a similar vibe yet here in … Continue reading
