  • Interview – Gregory & The Hawk

    Gregory and the Hawk (interview): One of our best writers, Tonantzin, got a chance to ask Meredith Godreau (aka Gregory and the Hawk) a few of questions. Why? Because Tonan’s a great writer (and a fan) and Meredith Godreau is a wonderful artist, that’s why? Anyhoo, enough rambling, here’s their email conversation:

  • Of how I found myself interviewing myself (pt 3)

    Interview – Lumiere Way back in the Summer, we asked Lumiere to interview themselves. Sadly, the tapes were lost (as the carrier pigeons they used went on strike), but, hooray, now we have them all here for you watch them. Each segment is bookended by an acoustic rendition of their newest material (although part 3…

  • Review : The Proposition, Robert Lane

    Two bands from the Midlands play the sounds of Middle America… Robert Lane -Well adjusted A folky lamentation of not fitting in a place (or scene), Robert Lane’s song is like a realisation about your place in life and whether you want to be in company of a flock or stick out like a sore…

  • Interview – Un Mexicano Enojado

    Un Mexicano Enojado is a band from Mexico, and frankly, they are quite angry. Their music (c’mon, click on the stream!) is a mix of rock and electronic, tribal rhythms. This is Un Mexicano Enojado (An Angry Mexican) speaking to me, a Mexican exiled in the UK. These are their words to the us.

  • Tripping the lucid light fantastic

    The Lucid Dream – In your Eyes (EP) The Skinny: Less lo-fi. Still noisy. The review proper: The lads got a reverb and a vibrato pedal and are not afraid to use it. Swear to God, all that acid done in the 60s found its way into the water supply and after a few years…

  • An interview with Sheffield’s greatest monkey

    Interview – Jonny Sock (no, he ain’t from the Arctic…) Our previous online editor, Orestes, was killed by the minions of the Angel of the North (true story, I have the video to prove it!), but waaaaaaay before that unfortunate incident (see what I did there? tee hee), he/she/it managed to get an interview with…

  • Unfortunate letters about incidents – 7

    Welcome to our new weekly column with Russ “chords of gold” Palmer. This week, he writes with grave concern to Top Shop… (and here’s a song to listen to while reading this incident…)

  • Radio friendly Americana

    Dust on the Breakers – American Reclamation The skinny: Music as a landscape. The review proper: Imagine an Autumn sunset. The skies are turning mauve and purple. There’s a few shades of red and orange by the departing Sun. And you’re on your way home to your loved ones (in my case, a laptop).

  • Lost notes – 3

    Previously, on Lost Notes… Lost notes – 3 As the bus (sorry, coach) stops in one of those greasy food joints along the M1, I think about my green notebook. It has one of those elastic bands and it’s filled to the brim in notes and ideas for books and short stories that I will…
