  • Wake up song for today – 40

    Some chilled out Saturday morning music to nurse those sordid hangovers out there. Ok so, maybe not that chilled out. More angsty. Here is some incredible LIVE footage of Tori Amos during the early ninties just after she’d released her highly acclaimed debut album Little Earthquakes. You can feel the pure emotion behind each of…

  • Wake up song for today -39

    Sheffield’s indie-noisesters Navvy are waking us up on this fine Friday morning with some scrappy angular pop which packs a punch. Happy weekend! – Misky

  • Wake up song for today – 38

    Hey, I think my divorce was just like this video!  – Quintana.

  • Single reviews – 3

    (or a inconsistent excuse of a column – Q) Reviewed by: Sam. Gorillaz – Stylo These animated fiends managed to unearth class act Bobby Womack (who needs to remind the world that ‘Across a 110th street’ is a bonafide classic) and even themselves after 5 years (I feel old now) and do an okay(ish) song…

  • Reviews – Bromheads @ DQ

    I guess it was a needed break. Some ol’ school rock after that debacle that I had to review the other day. Call it music therapy if you need a buzz word! Anyways, I was hanging out with Humberto and Orestes, those Mexican alcohol fiends, at DQ. Needed the extra help in case I wanted…

  • Wake up song for today – 36

    The true Mack Daddy of slow-core, Mr. Mark Eitzel and his jolly (irony!!) band of merry (double whammy!) and one of their happiest songs. Enjoy the depression known as American Music Club

  • Reviews – The Unfortunate Incident @ Sheffield Academy

    (Public apologies for the delay. It’s been hectic at Sloucher HQ – Quintana) The posters promised an “evening of aural delight and aesthetic pleasure”. Don’t know about that after spending the night outside my flat (long story short: people=shit) and sleeping in a semi-public library (you’d be amazed how comfy are the collected writings of…

  • Wake up song for today – 35

    Can’t get any classier than Mister Comeback (aka Tom Jones) and Jools “Please forget I was in Squeeze!!!” Holland doing this massively suave track
