Band Profile: Termite
A 'disgustingly contagious' four piece jazzy, proggy, spacey blues rock band - New E.P "Growth" out now - termite.bandcamp.com<br /><br />"One of West Yorkshire/Lancashire's most exploratory young bands, Termite's 3rd EP... Growth, is an all too brief voyage into a melting pot of blues, garage rock and early psychedelia" - Counterfeit Magazine<br /><br />"Impressively expansive and explorative music... 'Growth' is a mixture of styles, influences and genres that gel wonderfully to create a cacophony of the familiar and the surprising" - Listen with Monger<br /><br />"An exuberant crescendo of noise...roller coaster...in all senses of the words" - MusicMafia<br /><br />"When the world ends and the horsemen make their descent from heaven to cleanse the earth with fire, plague and pestilence; the last sound we will hear will be the last minute and a half of Kettle Of Fish." - Space Giraffe<br /><br />"Their attempts to blend styles are the work of a band attempting to look forwards rather than back. The textural nature of much of the music on 'Memory Loss' and the propulsive garage rock that ends 'Kettle of Fish' suggest that this is a band with a good few more sides to show us yet." - Echoes and Dust<br /><br />"'[Growth] draws you into both the sounds and the lyrics with a near hypnotic feel... An EP which will add to the collection of any music fan, who appreciates and welcomes the emergence of new and exciting musical talent." - Keep Music Live<br /><br />"From the beginning of the EP 'These Clowns' had me already hooked with the loud drums and the LSD guitar riffing" - WordsForMusic<br /><br />"Several times, the set descends into extended proggy breakdowns with electric double bass and flute thrown in for good measure but they are charismatic and musically capable enough for these Pink Floyd moments to be powerful rather than merely self indulgent" - No-TITLE Magazine

CD Review: Mull Historical Society - Am I Wrong?
Bloody hell. I ought to really like Mull Historical Society. They have a good name and they get listed in all the same places as my favourite artists like Cat Power and Yo La Tengo and Smackvan and Reindeer Section.

Band Profile: As Silence Falls
Sharing the hometowns of Hondo Maclean and Funeral For a Friend and having spent enough time performing alongside the likes of the aforementioned bands who have risen up and out of the thriving South Welsh music scene - As Silence Falls, who are somewhat of a 'local band super group' to those in the know are infact a genuine proposition to join the UK's metal elite.

CD Review: Grandmaster Gareth - The Party Sounds Of Grandmaster Gareth
Give this man a minute and he'll give you a melody. He'll give you a surreal story in sixty seconds. He'll even give you a bonus track that's half as long as the album itself!

CD Review: Daniel Pearson - Mercury State
Daniel Pearson has been writing songs about the state of the world. It's risky territory: one false move and you've produced something that dates the second you play it and lacks any sincerity.

CD Review: Biffy Clyro - Puzzle
Biffy Clyro are, inexplicably, one of those bands you're not really allowed to like. All too often dismissed as lowly emo, the Scottish three-piece band have somehow never quite broken in to the mainstream.

Live Review: i concur + The Pattern Theory + Rotary Ten + Mickey Charbagz + Peter Wright
There's a strong sociable ambience at tonight's EP launch for i concur. The whole evening is endearingly informal - partly a product of the choice of venue, but most importantly of the obvious musical friendships between groups.

CD Review: Exit State - Bad Days
'Bad Days,' the debut single from Lancashire's Exit State is catchy, bass-driven, mid-tempo rock. Its chorus follows the tried-and-tested formula of gang harmonies bouncing off frontman Roy Bright's hoarse-edged vocals.

Live Review: Edison Medicine + Brody + Mizkarrage of Justice

Live Review: Cables Cause Fires + Not Great Men + Empire Safari
There is an atmosphere in the dank cellar beneath the Royal Park pub that owes less to the faint smell of rot and alcohol hanging in the air than it does to the pervading feeling amongst all present that this event is the beginning of something exciting: A night of music organized by the bands themselves in the heart of Hyde Park, with a sense of community and mutual respect amongst audience and musicians alike.

Kasiuss are not your average rock band. Combining epic piano and classical chord movements with feel good and sometimes raw and aggressive guitar riffs, poignant lyrics, dynamic builds and catchy chorus', the Kasiuss 'sound' is one that can be hard to define.

CD Review: Goldie Lookin' Chain - ASBO4Life
'ASBO4Life' is one of the strangest albums I've heard in a while. In an ideal world new material would be judged purely on its own merits, but when a group has previously always followed such a rigid and distinctive formula, it's impossible not to expect more of the same.
