CD Review: Dolores - s/t
Apparently I called these guys jazz in an earlier review, and they got a bit mad. So, I sit with the new full length offering from the band spinning on my computer (us kids don't do CD players anymore y'know) with an open mind and my Miles Davis CDs as far away as possible...

CD Review: Project New City - Untitled
House music is an odd genre. Over the past few years, it's been everywhere from funk to punk, and back again.

CD Review: Reef - Give Me Your Love
The West Country boys are back with a new 'Best Of' album including 5 new songs. This is the first of them and as the funky guitar and strong bass kicks in it's instantly recognisable as Reef, although it sounds slicker than anything we've heard from them before.

CD Review: The Sweet Chap - Superman 3 / Girl With A Curl
From a label who will only release things as MP3 downloads, which in my opinion, is a brilliant idea, The Sweet chap swings and saunters over to my place, bottle of vino in hand, sleazy look on face.

CD Review: Emergencies - We Are The Waves
'We Are The Waves,' the debut single from Leeds' Emergencies boasts a skittering, off-kilter central riff that bands with far more experience would be proud of.

Live Review: Milloy + Pray For Hayden + Above Them + Driveway Speeding
I know I shouldn't complain but what is happening? We've buggered it on the global warming front. Upstairs in The Fenton was the last place I wanted to be on this overly heated Friday evening, if it wasn't for the superb line up of melodic punk bands.

CD Review: Hail Animator - Days For These Nights
Relatively new Leeds outfit Hail Animator's debut, three-track demo kicks off with the weaker of the three songs, 'Days For These Nights.' The verses knock along to a bone-jarring combination of clunking drums and sharply-plucked chords, before spinning into a loose, jangly indie-rock chorus.

CD Review: Josh Lees - Faith In A Box
The most impressive thing about Bradford-based Josh Lees' debut album, is his ability to tweak the usually restrictive acoustic pop formula, to give each song its own distinct character.

Ah, Players. The Landlord looks grumpy, the beer is rubbish, and it's full of teenage nu-metal fans. I don't know where else you'd want to be on a Friday night, especially when there are bands on...

Live Review: The Arrogance Of King Canute + Return To Aljustrel + Deadwall + Cruyff
It is a cold and very wet night and after braving the Headingley canal, I dock at The Library in Hyde Park, home to the 360 Club.

CD Review: Various Artists - Leeds Urban Fusion 2003
According to the liner notes here in the CD wallet of Leeds City Council's 'Urban Fusion 2003' album it says, rather cringingly, that this is a CD "born from hip hop, r&b and urban flavaz" although what 'urban flavaz' is meant to mean I have no idea.

As cities go, Leeds has a hell of a lot to offer when it comes to club nights, gigs, and general nightlife.

Live Review: Unexploded Shells + Bipod + Isobel + Jordan Senior
I've always liked The Primrose as one of Leeds' smaller music venues and I have always managed to catch some good bands there, tonight was no exception.

CD Review: Space - Suburban Rock'n'Roll
After the bloated corpse of Britpop (1992 - 1998) had finally gone up to the musical genre in the sky, it left its protagonists in an agonising position.

Live Review: Boom Bip + Bracken
I arrived at the Mixing Tin just as Bracken were starting their set. Coming down the stairs I could already feel the Anticon associated bass thrumming up to meet me.
