  • If Geeks ruled the world…

    From computer based knowledge, to those who have an anorak intelligence over films and music, there is a Geek in all of us. But what would happen if some of these Geeks had their way with the world? Where would relatively mundane things from now be left? And would the change be better?

  • The Lost Gem : Gazelle – Sunblown

  • Wake up to New Beard

    TUBA! The only instrument you can go to when you consider bass to be too “floaty” to actually leave an impact (I like bass, though). This is New Beard, a fantastic band from Brooklyn, New York who combine some ace riffs with a healthy dose of rock (and tuba, of course!). We’ve reviewed their album New Beard City and…

  • Interview – Conveyor

The vinegar-ey slag!…

  • Wake up to June

    Tuesday, the February of the month. Always feels like a Richard Clayderman sort of affair, especially on these colder days. On that note, the music of México‘s own June has that nostalgic feeling, so much like a forlorn shadow sighing at dusk, on top of a hill no one plays at anymore. Christ, I’m depressed…

  • Songs for Jane Howden

    They said that the only two certainties in life are death and taxes, but considering how some people avoid paying them, I’m no longer sure about taxes. But, yeah, we will all leave this mortal coil, one day. What’s never certain is what we can do with our time on this greeny Earth. I never…

  • Hey Sholay – ((O))

  • Castrovalva – You’re not in Hell, you’re in Purgatory my friend
