Of nicotine stains and shouting fits
Smokers Die Younger – X wants the meat The skinny: Uncompromising music that although sounding aggressive, is curiously ear-friendly. The review (proper): As once previously stated in this very zine (warning: incoming shameless plug), Smokers Die Younger are pretty hard to describe (and i’m not even pretending to even know how to categorise them). So…

It’s rumoured that our lovely Frog LOVES John Denver. And yodelling. Me? I like a good tune and Jacques Cousteau was a good geezer. So, there. Getting friggin’ goosebumps. Big Love Quinto

What the (bearded) cat brought in…
Cats:for:Peru – Attack of the Pitching Machine The skinny: Indie sea of rock with a dark riptide creeping about (will explain later). The review (proper): Hailing from Sheffield and formed from the ashes of other bands, the combined experience of all members show in the broad range of feelings and musical genres mish mashed…

Just recently I was thinking about “The Dukes of the Stratosphear”, the psychedelic side project of Andy Partridge and Co. (a.k.a. XTC) and I was thinking about them because I thought that I have not heard anything like that in the past 10 years.

From Liverpool with Love! I was pretty impressed by The Loud last Saturday at The Grapes and by perusing at their Myspace, I found they recorded this live session. It’s pretty much how raw they sound. Click ’em and check ’em! If you are in Liverpool this Saturday 3 of April, mosey down to Static…

The Loud, Lenders in the Temple and Mabel Love @ The Grapes
So after a gregarious trip to Castleton (including watching two sheep carcasses – brr), the day needed to be capped off with some cool tunes to take away some bad thoughts. The Grapes was having The Loud, Lenders in the Temple and Mabel Love as musical guests. Sounded like the best idea.

In 1968 something amazing happened. Four British rock legends came together for a tv show entitled The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. The Dirty Mac consisted of John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and Mitch Mitchell – too good to be true right?! Well, it is true. Check out one of the only songs…
