One of the more eclectic acts to grace the Main Stage over the course of the weekend, The King Blues deliver a typically charismatic and energetic performance, jam-packed with funky ska grooves, political inbetween-song rants and bucketloads of gritty lyrical realism.

Live Review: Jack Afro + The Finnlys + The Bribes
Three may allegedly be a magic number, but everybody at the Cockpit for Futuresound's third competition heat must have been doing too much calculus recently, accidentally multiplying three by something else and making the end result only distantly related to our original magic number.

Live Review: The Mystery Jets + This Et Al + Napoleon IIIrd
To say that I was a fan of Napoleon IIIrd would be a severe understatement; this so called low-fi wizard of leftfield rock is about as appealing as leprosy and manages to push the crowd to the recesses of the dingy corners of the bar for salvation.

Live Review: The Courteeners + Ida Maria
So then after months of waiting the night was finally here, our first chance to see the Academy. After an hour in Walkabout (who will do a roaring trade on a Friday night with two quid drinks compared to £3.20 next door) we got our first glimpse of the Academy and our first reaction was how busy it seemed.

CD Review: Sound Of Guns - Architects
Sound Of Guns continue to carve a niche for themselves as pedallers of earnest, stadium-rock anthems with added personality, with their latest single, 'Architects.' 'Architects' is a towering roar of impassioned, mainstream-friendly rock where everything is pushed to extremes: the vocals are bigger, the guitars are louder and the drums go off like heavy artillery.

Live Review: Stellastarr + The Ordinary Boys
Well well, I was finally let into The Rocket venue after waiting for no one for an hour and a half. It was already starting to get sweaty with the amount of people in the smaller bar, and I was tired from the hardships of being a 6th Form student at a centre where nothing, and I mean nothing happens all day long.

Live Review: Sky Larkin + Mother Vulpine + The Acutes
The primary reason for the great and the good of Leeds society piling into the cosy Faversham this Thursday night was the chance to honour our local up-and-coming pop heroes, Sky Larkin, and the launch of their debut 7" ('One of Two' on DTTR records - available in all credible outlets now, pop pickers!) Prior to this brooding slice of indie perfection, however, we had a couple of other outfits to draw us in the direction of the Fav's intimate stage.
