CD Review: Runaround Kids - Kiss Chase
The first professional release from Wakefield's Runaround Kids takes a little while to get going, thanks to unnecessary 'introductory' song 'Kiss Chase.' The spine-tingling atmospherics and frontman George Garthwaite's distant, crackling vocals make this sound bizarrely like the soundtrack to an episode of flash-in-the-pan online cartoon sensation Salad Fingers, which makes for um, interesting listening.

CD Review: Beat The Red Light - Untitled

Live Review: Dillinger Escape Plan + Poison the Well

CD Review: The Black Box Revelation - Set Your Head On Fire
The debut album from Brussels' The Black Box Revelation kicks off with the sleazy rock and roll of 'Love, Love Is On My Mind.' Erratic drumbeats, jerky riffs and Jan Paternoster's all-over-the-place vocals give this album-opener the sort of vibrant-but-ramshackle energy you'd expect from a live performance.

CD Review: Lethargy - Purification
Classic rock seems to be enjoying a bit of a resurgence as of late and, if this continues, then Welsh four-piece Lethargy are definitely in the running for a piece of the action with their second full length, 'Purification.' Album opener 'Stealth' is a poised and polished statement of intent, its dark chug overlaid with plenty of classy riffing and a cocksure, rock and roll swagger.

CD Review: Freeland - Under Control
The first two and a half minutes of Freeland's 'Under Control' are a steady electronica stomp of crunching beats and curls of heavily distorted guitar, mixed up with long, instrumental passages that's basically just the same synth played over and over again.

CD Review: Veil Cassini - s/t
Veil Cassini's debut EP proves that the Devon quartet have a hundred and one ideas when it comes to music, and for some reason they try to cram every last one of them into two songs, 'Silhouette' and 'Box & Cox.' Take almost any part of these musical mazes and you'll find enough off-kilter ideas to kit out five more songs.

CD Review: Papa Roach - Naked and Fearless
Papa Roach continue their mission to distance themselves from their dodgy nu-metal past, with acoustic EP 'Naked And Fearless.' Firstly, I'm not entirely sure three tracks - one of which is an acoustic version of recently-released single 'Lifeline' - qualifies as an EP (surely, it's more of a long single?) and, secondly, once you take away the big, brash guitars, there's really not an awful lot left of Papa Roach.

Live Review: Hella Cholla + Fran Rodgers + The Bacchae
It's already the penultimate Futuresound heat but nobody seems to be tiring just yet. In fact, given this evening's exciting array of artists, there will perhaps be a higher number of people disappointed to see the competition wind up than those relieved to push it towards its conclusion.

Fellow Danes Slaraffenland and Efterklang forming a supergroup for a one-off 'jam session' performance to be recorded live: the concept alone of this E.P is nothing short of inspired, but its often beautiful delicacy of execution and musically innovative arrangements and approaches, are of equal testament to their creative musicianship as to their practical and social abilities.

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.

In all the years of being a fan this was the first time I saw Marc 'live'. I had seen former associates of his from Vicious Pink some time back.

CD Review: The Birdman Rallies - Gondola
The first issue I noticed with this CD is that it is titled "Gondola," yet features some vaguely equine illustration for the cover art.

CD Review: Various Artists - NME The Album 2009
The press release that accompanies this two disco compilation gives NME the moniker of "the pioneers of all things cool" before promising us an album that "has its finger on the pulse, so you don't have to!" It couldn't possibly be any clearer that this is an album for people who see a band on the front cover of NME, and then spend the next week enthusing about the greatness of said band, regardless of whether they like them or not.
