CD Review: The Ripps - Loco
The Ripps have produced something not too dissimilar to what the late 90's would have thrived on. "LOCO" is quirky pop punk that makes you feel like a snotty, rebellious kid smashing up the house after too many skittles.

CD Review: Koala - Do not be afraid
It has to be said that koala bears are possibly the cutest and most vicious animals that have ever graced this planet, beneath their cutesy exterior lies the heart of a cold blooded killer; Koala the band on the other hand have released one of those albums emotionally expansive albums that wrap a warm blanket around you on a cold winters day and serves you a hot mug of tea with those tiny marshmallows in.

CD Review: We The Kings - Heaven Can Wait

CD Review: Wolfmother - Far Away
'Far Away' is the perfect blend of quirky indie and anthemic indie. Angular-voiced frontman Andrew Stockdale warbling out life-affirming lyrics is a strange, but surprisingly moving experience, and his spiny voice takes some of the sickly-sweetness out of the lyrics.

CD Review: Local Natives - World News
'World News' from Los Angeles' Local Natives, is a relentless rumble of booming drumbeats, contrasted against lilting vocals that rise to sudden, wailing peaks, and fleshed out with flickers of guitar that don't lure the listener's attention away from the main event: the contrast between the marching drums and the fluid vocals.

CD Review: Cha-Cha - Phonographic Love
The debut single from Cha-Cha, 'Phonographic Love,' comes across a little unsure of its identity. On the one hand, it seems to be aspiring towards cool, quirky indie-rock, with piston-like drumbeats and lurching riffs, but the band then splatter random, garish electro over the top, and transform 'Phonographic Love' into an awkward hybrid.

CD Review: The Hickey Underworld - The Frog
The Hickey Underworld are a four-piece alt-rock band from Antwerp, Belgium, and from the press release that came with this single, 'The Frog', I was pretty excited- on paper, it sounded as if this single would be quirky, dynamic, and unpredictable.

Perpetual Leeds mid-afternooners Deftones are foiled by the wind and the Main Stage's recurring sound 'issues', so I make my way to the smallest stage for a band who are fast becoming one of my favourites.

CD Review: ninepoundnote - Go National

Jaunty acoustic duo Peggy Sue and the Pirates played to a sparse audience of hangers-on and plus-ones at a subdued Brudenell Social Club, but their winning chattiness and lack of pretension set me up to like Peggy Sue before they even sent a jerky, charming mixture of grime, nu-folk and doo-wop echoing round the room.

If Ladyhawke has taught us anything, it's that girl-synth-rock is fit. And Plastiscines have not tried to hide the fact that their break-through single is in fact a complete cover of Ladyhawke's 'Paris Is Burning', where the word "Paris" has been cunningly substituted for "Barcelona." But I've found myself not particularly caring about this complete rip-off at all; 'Barcelona' is a great pop song that ticks all the necessary boxes.

CD Review: Sound Of Guns - Architects
Sound Of Guns continue to carve a niche for themselves as pedallers of earnest, stadium-rock anthems with added personality, with their latest single, 'Architects.' 'Architects' is a towering roar of impassioned, mainstream-friendly rock where everything is pushed to extremes: the vocals are bigger, the guitars are louder and the drums go off like heavy artillery.

'Can You Rely On Them' is a tune that upon first listen seems to pull no punches, upon second or more listens you will be thinking 'what the hell is going on with these guys.' It is filled with lots of quirky little solos, which do showcase a lot of musical talent that is there, somewhere!

Live Review: Unclejohnny + Vatican Jet + Spitfire Charlie + Silverlode
Every time I go to the Packhorse, Leeds seems to be in the middle of a hurricane or similar. The walk from the city centre up to Hyde Park is a blustery and soaking one, but once inside things start to pick up immensely, with one of the most impressive local lineups at the venue in some time.

CD Review: The Foxes - Depression, Joy and a Moment of Fame
The Foxes' 'Depression, Joy and a Moment of Fame' EP brings the sunshine with three light, summery indie-pop songs, before finally capturing your full attention with the unusual, subtly humorous 'Country Low.' The most memorable of the three upbeat summer-songs, is the beautifully hazy 'Something About You.' The blurry-eyed guitar-work is complimented by the occasional starburst of acoustic strumming and melt-in-the-mouth, lilting vocals.

CD Review: Volcanoes - Vexihomp
I'm a fool for CD covers. The art of downloading has taken a hell of a lot of the magic away for me, as an ugly itunes tracklisting doesn't really have the same appeal as a Beatles or Stone Roses masterpiece.

Live Review: We Are Scientists + ¡Forward, Russia! + Foreign Born
Once again I found myself racing for the front barrier with roughly half the population of Leeds' High Schools in order to witness what has to be said, one of the most mind bogglingly unhinged extravagancies this city has held in quite some time.

Live Review: Martha Wainwright + Yellow Stripe Nine
"Please excuse us, it's very hot in these cravats" winks Yellow Stripe Nine's quirky keyboardist with a cheeky smile pinned haphazardly across his malleable face, tongue firmly slotted into cheek, twinkly eyes joking merrily along with all this talk of decadence, sleaze and spotless white spats.

Live Review: The Maccabees + The Hair
The Hair make me want to do reasonably mucky things to people. I think. I'm not sure. Either that or maybe find a partner to relive certain aspects of 'Dirty Dancing' with right there and then on the shiny wooden floorboards of The Faversham, except we'd incorporate more modern and perhaps more subtle dance moves whilst substituting those items of footwear now relegated to the depths of a chiropodist's hell with slightly more comfortable shoes.

CD Review: Sucioperro - Random Acts of Intimacy
Competing for the youth of the nation's musical hearts and minds is no easy task. Sometimes you need a gimmick, a ruse that will make you or your band stand out from the many others who are all after the increasingly short and fickle attention span of the mainstream media and record buying public.
