Live Review: Les Incompetents
Only a handful of bands have lyrics that when cut bleed humour and wit, music that sparks involuntary bouts of movement resembling that of a seizure, an image gleaming like a 6ft neon sign that says 'now', a set void of a single poor effort AND who possess the ability to hold an audience even if they were doused in Kerosene and set alight.

Bloody hell. A band who site The Beach Boys as influences are hard to come by nowadays... Thankfully The Composers aren't one of those bands who say someone is an influence when in reality only have one song on mp3 which they kinda like.

CD Review: Buck Brothers - Me
Many people erroneously laugh off the Kaiser Chiefs as mere Britpop pretenders, but imagine if they had actually been born into the dregs of Britpop in 1995 and not quite made it - thus leaving the music business quietly to play at local snooker clubs wearing sunglasses, a la Rick Witter?

First up on tonight's 360 Club showcase of local unsigned talent are Six O'Clock Showdown. Their indie rock 'n' roll has a distinctly Northern flavour with accented vocals and contagious riffs not unlike the Artic Monkeys (circa 2007) and The Cribs.
