Live Review: Easy Star All Stars
A band who'd do whole Reggae cover albums of prog rock classics invite dismissal as a novelty act, but for years, largely until the Bob Marley/Roots revolution of the early/mid seventies, Jamaican artists commonly interpreted the work of American and UK artists.

CD Review: RZA - Afro Samurai: The Resurrection (Soundtrack)
For those of you not familiar with RZA, he is a rapper and producer who didn't attend class when they began teaching 'gangster, bling and bitches are cool.' He was probably sat at home playing chess, watching a Kung Fu movie, or perhaps even practising Kung Fu.

Live Review: James
Have you noticed that it's getting harder and harder to tell bands apart from their roadies? This is not necessarily because of the lack of true rock stars we possess at the moment (© NME), rather that bands are employing their own 'posse' as opposed to the black-leather clad roadies of the last few decades.

It's no doubt the NME Awards Tour presents some pretty big shoes to fill.

Tonight, in drizzly Pennine country with sleep in its bleary eyes and grit on its railtracks, we wander into this cornerhouse bar to find a large number of children onstage barely out of Huggies and totting up, I estimate, a grand total of four and a half years of age between them.

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.
