CD Review: Cymbals Eat Guitars - Wind Phoenix
'Wind Phoenix' is the third single to be lifted off Cymbals Eat Guitars' 'Why There Are Mountains' album, and it perfectly navigates the potentially dangerous ground where 'dreamy' meets 'dreary.' 90% of this alt-pop number consists of blurry vocals wafting across an insubstantial backdrop of eerie, wind-like synths and haunting chimes.

CD Review: Maximo Park - Girls Who Play Guitars
The a phrase "post-libertine" is used a lot these days to describe a certain style of music or band; with the emergence of The Futureheads and subsequently Maximo Park I've noticed a large number of sound-alikes sprouting up that could be described as "post-Maximo Park" bands, so it's interesting to see what the forerunners of the "angular" art-pop scene has to offer.

CD Review: Dinosaur Jr - Pieces
'Pieces' is the second single to be lifted off Dinosaur Jr's ninth studio album, 'Farm.' 'Pieces' is the typical Dinosaur Jr wall of distorted guitars and frontman J Mascis's vague and winding 'slacker' drawl, cut through with sharper guitar lines that hit those glimmering high notes and give 'Pieces' a sparkling veneer.

CD Review: The Pigeon Detectives - Untitled
The Pigeon Detectives are one of the most entertaining live bands around Leeds at the moment. On stage their frantic and furious frontman belts out shambolic rock 'n' roll gems like there's no tomorrow, often threatening to decapitate one of the band's guitarists as he throws his mic stand, microphone and himself around the stage in an uncontrolled fit of pleasure.

CD Review: A - Something's Going On

Band Profile: Legion
Rob Maisey - Vocals Natya Raskolnikov - Guitars Charles Shelley - Keyboards Legion make music that you might describe as dark, danceable, rock; but it would be more accurate and probably a bit easier just too call it Goth.

CD Review: The Nervous Shakedown - Untitled
The White Stripes have a lot to answer for. Not only did they prompt the entire record industry to sign any band with a 'The' in the title, but they also made every label sign up the obligatory dirty blues riffage band.

CD Review: Team Modeliste - Untitled
Team Modeliste's demo is four tracks of funk rock that'd go down a storm at those trendy indie nightclubs where they're more likely to play Gossip and The Ting Tings, than Oasis and Blur.

Live Review: Not Great Men + Surprise... Fire + Ghosts in the Nightclub + Cables Cause Fires
Cables Cause Fires are this evening's opening act. A difficult act to sum up, the sound is somewhere between the more technically minded guitar orientation of the current Brit school and the chunky alternative rock of the stateside contingent.

CD Review: The Hit and Runs - Nightcap EP
'Ow do, Sirs? It would stand to reason, that within a year or so of the Arctic Monkeys' slightly bemusing and chaotic arrival onto the music scene, there was suddenly gonna be a deluge of two bit chancers picking up guitars and warbling away in local dialect.

Band Profile: Ghosts in the Nightclub
We started out in March 2007 recording songs in our flat. We had a song called Ghosts in the Nightclub and because we didn't get out that much we thought it would fit as both a description of where we were at the time and the odd/paranoid nature of the lyrics.

CD Review: Nikoli - You've Come So Far
This CD has a five star production on some uncertain material. There's a terrific sound to it, recorded as it is in a "purpose built studio" (what other sorts are there?).
