Video Alert: Maximo Park – Hips And Lips
Hips And Lips Maximo Park return and I rejoice, perhaps a little more than I should, but not as much as the fan portrayed in the hilarious video for the first single Hips and Lips.

Free Track: Hounds – The Wicked Witch
Hounds Here is a band that is in total contrast to the last post I made and that’s just how I like to roll. Here you can find all kinds of noise and quite frankly quite a cool song about Wizard Of Oz that sounds way beyond camp, which let’s face it, is a little … Continue reading

Gig Alert: Birdy
Birdy At just 15 years old Birdy is now set to play her biggest show, a show that fans 2 years younger than her won’t even be able to get into. At that age, it’s pretty impressive. Her first live show wasn’t that long ago either, the singer songwriter played a sold out show at … Continue reading

Rooftops Released May 7th 2012 Having looked forward to listening to Rooftops after rather enjoying what was on offer from lead single, New York, I ended up being somewhat despondent in the end.
