CD Review: Lowfields - Untitled
Despite only forming four months prior to this recording, Leeds act Lowfields' first ever demo is two tracks of instantly likeable mainstream rock, played by very accomplished musicians.

CD Review: Farming Incident - The Swine Fever Diaries
Farming Incident are still doing their own experimental, art-rock thing. It's still lo-fi and it's still very strange.

CD Review: Rising Times - All The Way
Lee, Kieran, Cameron and Si from Rising Times are the new boys on the English rock scene and they've already made a huge impact, having just supported The Cooper Temple Clause and opened at the QuingDoa International Festival in China in front of 27,000 revellers.

CD Review: Elektrons - Red Light, Don't Stop
Kicking the album off is the single and club favourite 'Get Up' which absolutely provides an exciting introduction to the rest of the album.

CD Review: Rhode Island - Night Fliers EP
Rhode Island announce themselves with the borrowed voice of a court house judge from some seedy American backwater.

Live Review: Mir + Steward + Farming Incident
Tonight brings together three fine, but different, bands for a Satellite magazine special at the Royal Park Cellars, and by the end of the night a decent sized audience has gathered, perhaps 50 or so, to see the headline act of Mir.

CD Review: The Scaramanga Six - Are you one of the Family?
Save for the first twenty seconds of the opening and title track "Are you one of the Family?" (On their own Trinity Records label), an opening in which The Scaramanga Six have recorded some very strange effects, including explosions, I actually like this track.

CD Review: Battle - Break the Banks
I'm going to start this with a disclaimer - if you've recently enjoyed a seven-minute wildly creative single entitled 'Atlas', you needs to pick up the album by Battles, because I'd feel bad if any confusion in the names - combined with this review - would discourage you from picking up one of the albums of the year (Battles - 'Mirrored').

Live Review: The Walkmen + Sound Team
As support band Sound Team launch into their brief but stunningly good set it is evident that this band are meant for big things, even despite the slightly dodgy name.

Live Review: Aeon Scream + Four Run Run
It's another night of nervous expectation down at Joseph's Well, but maybe the uncertainty surrounding what's on show only makes the taste sweeter when things go right.

CD Review: Tiger Shadow - The Rise of The Tiger Shadow
Leeds' Tiger Shadow have a very distinctive sound, but for a point of reference, think somewhere between Skindred and Gorillaz at their most hip hop, with some Faithless thrown into the mix.

Live Review: four day Hombre + Martha + Ashley Hicklin
I believe change has to be accepted as an endearing facet of life in general, thus the exciting prospect of a mob-handed entourage of cello wielding students taking the stage in Joseph's Well already appeared enough to induce a clammy palmed curiosity.

CD Review: The Shadowcops - A Big Pot Of Hot
It seems a prerequisite that any band on Manchester-based independent record label TNS Records' roster, will specialise in shouty, snotty, DIY punk rock played at quadruple speed, and The Shadowcops are no exception.

CD Review: Various Artists - Kerrang! The Album '09
The genius of the annual Kerrang! compilation is that, like the Kerrang!-sponsored Download festival, if you're an avid reader of said magazine, then chances are you're already familiar with every last band on this mammoth forty-two track compilation, even the acts being billed as 'ones to watch out for.' Spanning two CDs, it's conveniently split into mainstream-bothering punk and rock songs on the first CD, and metal and heavy rock on the second.

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.

Live Review: Foo Fighters + Arcade Fire + Rise Against + Hot Hot Heat + The Kills + Dogs + Arctic Monkeys + Million Dead + Nine Black Alps + The Explosion + Senses Fail + Editors
Sunday started like any other day. Apart from this Sunday I happened to wake up in a field with 30 odd thousand other bear soaked, bleary eyed, unwashed, desperate bladder controlling festival revellers.
