CD Review: The Pigeon Detectives - Untitled
The Pigeon Detectives are one of the most entertaining live bands around Leeds at the moment.

CD Review: The Courteeners - Acrylic
On first listen I'd have said that this tune wasn't half as exciting as it liked to think it was (or indeed, as a large number of people - all more important than I - seemed to think it was.) Sure, it jangled, it jerked and it leapt, but it still sounded ever so slightly two dimensional.

CD Review: The Rosie Taylor Project - Black And White Films
It would be easy enough to dismiss 'Black And White Films' after a cursory listen. Boasting a gently plucked guitar line that trundles along for four minutes without really deviating, and lacking anything that could really lay claim to being a 'chorus', it's a tune that can pass you by as lightly and unobtrusively as a gentle breeze.
