CD Review: Saving Lenny - Easy Way Out
Ska Punk is one of those phrases that fails to describe the music of Saving Lenny. They have primitive songs (punk-ish) and occasional spurts of up-beat horns (sort of ska-ish nearly).

CD Review: Slaraffenklang - Danish Dynamite Live at Sono Festival
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: Sidearm - Graffitied Litter
Sidearm are an ambitious and adventurous bunch. This idea-rammed CD of three songs shouts out "gi's a gig!" in a loud and convincing voice.

CD Review: King Booty - s/t
More funky house music? Oh yes. King Booty sound like some sort of cross between those endless 'chilled dance music' CDs you see clogging up valuable space in Virgin Megastores and the sound of French dance music from about 1998 - 1999.

CD Review: Instant Species - The Longer You Leave It, The Louder It Gets...
Lured by some professional quality graphics I bought Instant Species' "Home Alone" CD last year. I ended up a bit disappointed by what I thought of at the time as bleak plodding music.

CD Review: Beneath Augusta - Mellonova 00-03
Something must be happening in Canada these days. From the nation that brought us such luminaries as Bryan Adams, Celine Dion, and the miserable Alanis Morisette, the country that sits atop the United States of America is quietly out-doing their southern neighbour for quality musical exports.

CD Review: David Broad - Untitled
David Broad, member of the Leeds Folk Theatre Partisans which also features Fran Rodgers, Michael Rossiter and Benjamin Wetherill, releases his debut EP and, unsurprisingly, it's four tracks of good old-fashioned folk music.

Live Review: Vessels + Quack Quack + Juffage
Juffage is a potential health and safety hazard. During his set tonight (over and above the short circuit-inducingly large amount of loopers, delay and fuzz pedals), various pieces of equipment are carried around Upstairs @ The Library high above his head, an incongruous table lamp atop an amp stack is wobbling violently and his cavalier style of guitar playing seems to centre on physical contortions in the middle of an already-large crowd.

CD Review: ˇForward, Russia! - Life Processes
Let's take a leaf out of the Life Processes book and get straight on with this one (it's precisely three seconds before the first of many huge choruses on display here).

CD Review: Various Artists - Leeds Urban Fusion 2003
According to the liner notes here in the CD wallet of Leeds City Council's 'Urban Fusion 2003' album it says, rather cringingly, that this is a CD "born from hip hop, r&b and urban flavaz" although what 'urban flavaz' is meant to mean I have no idea.

CD Review: Red Light Company - Fine Fascination
'Fine Fascination' is an album that makes no efforts to disguise its ambitions: it's an album that wants to fill stadiums, and it sounds fittingly huge.

CD Review: Fake Problems - It's Great To Be Alive
'It's Great To Be Alive,' the third album from Florida's Fake Problems, is so sublimely happy, that it'll leave you agreeing with the album title wholeheartedly.

CD Review: Dear Reader - Idealistic Animals
I'd warmed to "Idealistic Animals" before I heard a single note. I like animals. Not in the way that would force Republican candidates to cry "It's unnatural!" of course but in the "They're ace!" sense.

CD Review: Various Artists - Charles Ives: Four Sonatas
Hilary Hahn seems to be championing new, modern and often misunderstood music of late. In 2008, she recorded the opinion-dividing Violin Concerto of Arnold Schoenberg, about which the great Jascha Heifetz himself said one would need six fingers in order to play.

Interview: The Wonder Stuff
'Twas a blustery wet night on Sunday 12th March 2006 when I forced my way into a packed out Cockpit in Leeds, to interview not only a legend, to all self respecting indie lovers, but also a rather splendid chap! In the immortal words of Take That would The Wonder Stuff be back for good?
