The Cure - 4.13 Dream

The Cure - 4.13 Dream

(3 stars)13 Nov 2008

As Robert Smith shuffles – his unlaced hi-tops squeaking across the floor – into pop musical maturity, his willingness to indulge his dark side wavers. The band’s last album, a self-titled behemoth from 2004, was The Cure gone metal. For the greater…

Various - Sleepwalk: A Selection By Optimo (Espacio)

Various - Sleepwalk: A Selection By Optimo (Espacio)

(5 stars)13 Nov 2008

Any album which takes a full ten minutes to actually develop any BPM at all – over Chris Watson’s found wavesound and the calming tone of Nurse With Wound’s ‘Funeral Music For Perez Prado’ isn’t your typical dance mix. But then, as should be obvious by…

From Monument To Masses

Exposure - From Monument To Masses

4 Nov 2008

If you want to get people’s pulses racing, politics and instrumental post-rock are not usually top of the convo list. But From Monument To Masses are the exception – and we want to bellow it from the rooftops. Mixing electronic samples, breakbeats…

Exposure - AC Slater

Exposure - AC Slater

3 Nov 2008

New rave is passé and old rave is new again. Does that make sense? Never mind. A new vogue in electronic production has it that only everything including the kitchen sink can make a set these days, and so we have guys like AC Slater from Bushwick…

Fleet Foxes

30 Oct 2008

She & Him

Singles & Downloads

30 Oct 2008

You know times are tough when you have to resort to Tony Christie to get you through the day. OK, the climate’s shagged and the banks are collapsing, but it’s the piffling amount of brilliant tracks that’s really getting my goat this issue. What? Us…

Blair Douglas - Stay Strong

Blair Douglas - Stay Strong (Bithibh Laidir/Rester Fort)

(4 stars)16 Oct 2008

FOLK The triple language title of keyboard and accordion player Blair Douglas’ latest outing reflects the characteristic mix of Scottish/Gaelic folk and rock, Cajun and New Orleans music that makes up this typically eclectic collection. The Skye…

Popup - A Time and a Place

Popup - A Time and a Place

(4 stars)2 Oct 2008

INDIE If it has felt like a long time coming for Popup’s debut long player to land in our arms then maybe it’s because we’ve been aware of them being damn good from very early on. Furious early demos, bursting with barely contained energy, recorded…

The Pictish Trail

The Pictish Trail

18 Sep 2008

SINGER-SONGWRITER The Pictish Trail is coming out of the shadows. Johnny Lynch (for the Trail is he) has until now focussed on running the Fence Collective and playing guitar for head-honcho King Creosote (aka Kenny Anderson). But with the release of…
