Interview: four day Hombre
After 7 years of showcasing, label bashing and touring, four day Hombre have finally completed their first album. "Experiments in Living" was recorded at Black Box studios in France with Dave Odlum and is set to be an epic of many proportions, if their latest single "The First Word is the Hardest" is anything to go by.

CD Review: The Joy Formidable - Greyhounds In The Slips
Following on from their eight track CD 'A Balloon Called Moaning,' The Joy Formidable have delivered a seductively produced track 'Greyhounds in the Slips.' Fully powered drums carve out a crescendo of epic proportions, leaving the guitars to compete for attention.

CD Review: Kram - Sides / Where Were You?
This new double A-side is more of the same idea packed Muse-tinged guitar-led adventures from Kram. There are also encouraging signs that they're finding their own sound rather than wearing their influences like big hats with neon arrows.

Live Review: The Somatics
Pre-gig opinions on The Somatics suggested they are a classic example of 'an acquired taste', and with a small, but loyal following in Joseph's Well on Thursday night you couldn't help but think that The Somatics will forever retain their cult, underground status despite signing to a significant indie label in Beggars Banquet.

CD Review: Electric Street Police - When Machines Hit Back
Are you one of those people who used to be into the dance scene but then drifted slowly but surely into the indie revolution?

CD Review: Frightened Rabbit - Swim Until You Can't See Land
Where to start with Frightened Rabbit? Their wonderfully lo-fi 2006 debut 'Sing The Greys,' despite being heard by few, ranks as one of the most impressive debuts of the decade, and their glorious sophomore record, 'The Midnight Organ Fight' is a stunning and fantastically emotional album, proving the band's worth as one of the best bands to come out of Scotland in recent times.

CD Review: Mr Hudson And The Library - A Tale Of Two Cities
I first caught this band on the Jools Holland show some months ago and to say that I saw a group of quirky individuals would be a huge understatement.

Live Review: Oceansize
Although the number of Oceansize shows in Leeds can still be counted on the fingers of one hand, they are not all new faces to these parts having spent pre-band time in the heart of Leeds 6 before their formation over the hills in Lancashire.

CD Review: Two Gallants - What the Toll Tells
In the world of the commercial mainstream Arctic Monkeys are being proclaimed as the Messiah himself, uniting the indie elite, the council estate hobbits, and even your mum and dad in the dawn of a new musical explosion.

CD Review: Pollen - Lonely In The Crowd
I get hayfever. Real bad, sometimes. But this particular strain of Pollen is infectious and debilitating in the best possible way - it will make you 1) sing (uncontrollably and loudly) and 2) stand there in shock unable to do a thing except sniff, your eyes watering, but for an entirely different reason to that large and inconsiderate yellow field a few streets away.

CD Review: Mumm-Ra - These Things Move in Threes
I tend to be a little wary of bands like Mumm-Ra, who take up instruments with the sole purpose of being in a band to pass the time - something all the members of this group admit to.

CD Review: Seafood - Paper Crown King
One of the most underrated acts to emerge from the same Scottish scene as the likes of Idlewild and (obviously early) Snow Patrol, Seafood, through no fault of their own have just never caught on to the mainstream in a way that their combined talents have always merited.

CD Review: The Music - s/t
The Music have had a phenomenal start to their working lives. Three years on from their origins in Kippax, expectations and circumstances have said "this album has got to be massive." Early gigs at the Duchess of York in January 2000 showed glimpses of their root talents: a searing voice and twitching charismatic in Robert Harvey and a guitar trance demon in Adam Nutter.

CD Review: Liam Frost - Show Me How The Spectres Dance
At only 22 years old, Manchester's Liam Frost, with the accompaniment of The Slowdown Family, has received enormous praise for his brooding and thoughtful brand of acoustic-folk-indie, likened to Badly Drawn Boy, and hailed by some as Britain's answer to Bright Eyes.

Live Review: Alkaline Trio + Mike Park + Sunshine
God love Alkaline Trio, the unflappable red and black macabre attack are one of those one-of-a-kind bands that unassailably distinguish themselves from the pack and become a staple ingredient of your listening diet with inherent ease.

CD Review: Alestorm - Black Sails At Midnight
'Black Sails At Midnight' is one of those rare albums that'll leave you wondering "why has no-one tried this before?" Scottish four piece Alestorm take the gimmicky-but-actually-pretty-fun battle metal formula popularised by European metal bands such as Turisas, and replace references to Odin and Vikings with tales of quests, treasure and wenches.

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.
