Review: Flaming Lips & Fwends – With a little help from my fwends
After absconding from Sloucher in late April, I was roped in to review once again for that fat twat and his cohorts. I had a good time reviewing EPs by real bands a couple of weeks ago and then I heeded the call to review a new Flaming Lips album. How bad could it be?…

Vast Robot Armies’ Studio Diary – Day Two
(Author’s Note – again. Remember when I said I would be less verbose for the upcoming entries. Ya, maybe not. But don’t worry, all the “what happens in the studio stuff?” is coming. It all ramps up from Day 3-12) I awoke in the Agee household. Everyone in that house was now very aware that…

I ran into the music of Monuments a couple of years ago, thanks to that old recommendation engine Last.fm. It was hard tracking them down because there are six bands under the same name on that site (sort it out, CBS!) but eventually managed to get ahold of them, especially after listening to their latest…

Review: John Hiatt – ’Terms of my Surrender’
‘Wow. Did I order a smoky barbecued steak and a shot of bourbon? Surprising. Especially because I am a vegetarian.’ That was my first thought upon hearing John Hiatt’s voice rumbling through the opening lines of ‘Long Time Comin’, the opener of his 22nd studio album Terms of my Surrender. Despite a career spanning 30…
