  • Wake up song for today -99

    Cream – ‘SWLABR’: (I know it’s cliché but…) Disraeli Gears is one of my favourite Cream albums because the licks and riffs are beyond insanely good! ‘SWLABR’  will have you doing air guitar around the breakfast table… – PM

  • Remember the time Wet Nuns averted the Rapture?

    This rant is based on actual events at the Wet Nuns + Serious Sam Barrett show @ Stockroom, April 18th. Cars were aflame. Screams and moans filled the atmosphere. The swanky buildings surrounding the Roebuck tavern laid asunder. The smell of destruction lingered as a thousand Wednesday and United fans congregated and fought, whilst police…

  • Wake up song for today -98

    Here is the latest single from the recently released album of the same name by Laura Veirs. Think mellow guitars, melancholy lyrics and dreamy orchestration and production. Laura is an accomplished singer and songwriter and a brilliant live musician, plus the video to ‘July Flame’ is very endearing. Wake up gently on this lazy Sunday – PM

There were other bands playing that night (Serious Sam Barrett, The Crookes, Standard Fare and…

  • obLONG’s rope a dope (pt 1)

    obLONG – Demo EP One afternoon, again in front of my PC, I put on my earphones and search for a band whose name is rather interesting to me… obLONG. Another assignment from the editors. I could only think of an American Football ball shape, tricky shadows, prolongation, perfect symmetry.

    Up at Sloucher HQ we are big fans! – Misky p.s. If you’d like a free song by Bromheads, get our mix cd, it’s free and it’s hellacool!

  • Dirty denim in a Plug Pantry

    Interview – Dirty Jeans     A few minutes after their gig at The Plug, the Dirty Jeans got snatched and found themselves into an interrogation room at The Plug. After stating their names and crimes in the name of good music, Gaz (guitar/vocals), Katie (keyboard/vocals), Clint (bass) and Luke (drums) sat there, with their…

  • Wake up song for today -95

    Wake up to some classic 90’s cheesy soft-rock pop from an unfairly underrated musician (who also happens to own a pair of the coolest glasses in the world) – Misky
