With over 6 hours of material they can tailor their sets to suit any situation.

Band Profile: Termite
A 'disgustingly contagious' four piece jazzy, proggy, spacey blues rock band - New E.P "Growth" out now - termite.bandcamp.com<br /><br />"One of West Yorkshire/Lancashire's most exploratory young bands, Termite's 3rd EP... Growth, is an all too brief voyage into a melting pot of blues, garage rock and early psychedelia" - Counterfeit Magazine<br /><br />"Impressively expansive and explorative music... 'Growth' is a mixture of styles, influences and genres that gel wonderfully to create a cacophony of the familiar and the surprising" - Listen with Monger<br /><br />"An exuberant crescendo of noise...roller coaster...in all senses of the words" - MusicMafia<br /><br />"When the world ends and the horsemen make their descent from heaven to cleanse the earth with fire, plague and pestilence; the last sound we will hear will be the last minute and a half of Kettle Of Fish." - Space Giraffe<br /><br />"Their attempts to blend styles are the work of a band attempting to look forwards rather than back. The textural nature of much of the music on 'Memory Loss' and the propulsive garage rock that ends 'Kettle of Fish' suggest that this is a band with a good few more sides to show us yet." - Echoes and Dust<br /><br />"'[Growth] draws you into both the sounds and the lyrics with a near hypnotic feel... An EP which will add to the collection of any music fan, who appreciates and welcomes the emergence of new and exciting musical talent." - Keep Music Live<br /><br />"From the beginning of the EP 'These Clowns' had me already hooked with the loud drums and the LSD guitar riffing" - WordsForMusic<br /><br />"Several times, the set descends into extended proggy breakdowns with electric double bass and flute thrown in for good measure but they are charismatic and musically capable enough for these Pink Floyd moments to be powerful rather than merely self indulgent" - No-TITLE Magazine

CD Review: Kagoule - Monarchy/Mudhole

Upon receiving this CD, I thought - 'Looks promising, very slick. Maybe a better photographer could have made the live looking cover shot look a little less like they are performing at an open jam night to an empty pub.'

It is filled with lots of quirky little solos, which do showcase a lot of musical talent that is there, somewhere!

CD Review: Wildbirds & Peacedrums - The Snake
After releasing their debut album, 'Heartcore,' through Yorkshire's own The Leaf Label to widespread acclaim in 2007, Swedish husband-and-wife duo Mariam Wallentin and Andreas Werliin jumped straight in at the deep end with a follow up the next year. Their sound is raw, primitive; there is nothing of The White Stripes here. Maintaining the stripped-down feel of 'Heartcore,' second album 'The Snake' builds evermore layers of complexity onto the basic vocals and percussion set-up, bringing in glockenspiel, marimba, flute and hosts of other tinkling, twinkling other-worldly sounds. The landscape of 'The Snake' is a frenetic and turbulent one, with Wallentin's vocals meandering deftly through a veritable helter-skelter of styles and octaves; one moment her voice is as deep and powerful as Nina Simone's or a jazzier PJ Harvey; the next, it takes on a fragile tone more akin to the fragile warbles of Anthony Hegarty or Baby Dee. All the while Werliin's 'peacedrums' are pounding rhythmically in the background, tribal and animalistic, as Wallentin guides us through their fairy tale wilderness. Live, they are a sight to behold, with shrieks and smashes melding together in a crashing chaos of complexity. First single 'There Is No Light' is a prime example of this controlled chaos; an anguished, churning mess of a song; but these raucous numbers are punctuated by slower, delicate tracks such as 'So Soft So Pink,' which sounds exactly as one would expect from the name, with soft drums and tinkling cymbal crashes built around vocals as understated and brittle as glass. Listening to the album, you get the impression that the vocals and drums are each telling their own, distinct stories throughout; stories which compliment and interlace with each other but which are individual narratives, each with their own directions.
