I saw Biffy Clyro at my local student's union back in the day and, at just two places below Sunday's headlining act, frontman Simon Neil's crowd interaction is almost a carbon copy of his banter with the teeny SU crowd all those years ago - i.e.

CD Review: Biffy Clyro - Puzzle
Biffy Clyro are, inexplicably, one of those bands you're not really allowed to like. All too often dismissed as lowly emo, the Scottish three-piece band have somehow never quite broken in to the mainstream.

CD Review: Biffy Clyro - Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies
It's a well known fact, pop fans, that when you're in a band and you achieve even the faintest semblance of commercial success - be it a top 30 hit, MTV play or appearing as background music in a particularly septic episode of Hollyoaks - all previously-held scruples and convictions go out of the window.

CD Review: Biffy Clyro - Infinity Land
Scotland's sonic purveyors of progressive alt-rock return with their third album in as many years. Throughout this timeframe we have witnessed the bands initial fusion of cathartic pop/metal grow increasingly sophisticated, with the three-piece's latest offering Infinity Land being a great example of what may-or-may-not become known as "everything but the kitchen sink-Rock".

CD Review: Manchester Orchestra - Shake It Out
'Shake It Out' is the third single to be released from Manchester Orchestra's second studio album.

Live Review: Penguin + Talk To Angels + InSatellites + St. Somebody
St. Somebody - fast paced indie with soaring vocals and fashionable haircuts St. Somebody took the stage at 360 Club to a barrage of applause, and with beaming grins upon their youthful faces they picked up instruments, adjusted carefully coiffed hair and turned up the volume.

CD Review: Chiodos - Bone Palace Ballet
Second album from rising Michigan hardcore crew Chiodos begins as it means to go on, with the distinctly operatic 'Two Birds Stoned At Once.' Opening with a shiver-inducing Victorian-tinged violin, 'Two Birds Stoned At Once' recalls The Used's 'The Bird and The Worm,' both in terms of its operatic leanings and the Bert McCracken-like twinge to frontman Craig Owens' voice.

CD Review: Various Artists - NME The Album 2009
The press release that accompanies this two disco compilation gives NME the moniker of "the pioneers of all things cool" before promising us an album that "has its finger on the pulse, so you don't have to!" It couldn't possibly be any clearer that this is an album for people who see a band on the front cover of NME, and then spend the next week enthusing about the greatness of said band, regardless of whether they like them or not.
