Everybody Wah by Bosco Delrey | Album Review

Having the sound of psychedelic, blues, rock and roll in your MP3 player nowadays is something quite rare when it once used to be peppered around on many a vinyl player circa 1965 when James Douglas “Jim” Morrison and The Doors first formed.

Mona by Mona | Album Review | Official Music Video

I like hearing bands that sound like other bands, but better. Having that little bit more off something whether it be an ecstatic drum beat, a funkier bass, a more frantic guitar riff laden record or more powerful vocal strength.

Go Now And Live by We Are The Ocean | Album Review

I find that when you talk to people on the phone, you can tell whether they are smiling or not. It makes a massive difference to people who are working in sales. Having a positive demeanour is paramount. It increases sales. When listening to the new album by We Are The Ocean, the energy they emit shows that they enjoy what they are doing so they’ve sold the album to me.

Good For Nothing by Hard-Fi | Single Review

With a touch of northern soul on the intro and the weaving feel of the madchester scene of time gone by this indie band who many of us thought we now gone, Hard-Fi are on the return with a new album, a fresh sound and new focus.

Euphoric Heartbreak by Glasvegas | Album Review

Glasgow, Scotland is not a depressing place. It is a beautiful city full of culture but like many cities across all of the lands, there are some areas which can be deemed as a wee bit miserable. A little sad. Depressing maybe. But true Scotsmen will not get down about it. Shrug, deal with it and carry on regardless.

Wasting Light by Foo Fighters | Album Review

Are these guys not one of the biggest rock bands in the world? Arguably they are the biggest but looking at the attention the Foo Fighters get for the smallest release is something only unsigned bands can dream off.

The End by Hyper | The Beatman & Ludmilla Remix | Single Review

Make no mistake, I’m a bit of a rocker. I grew up on Metallica, Faith No More, Pantera, all that kind of jazz. So I’m fond of a heavy guitar riff. Hyper‘s latest dance release mixed up with Beatman & Ludmilla‘s dub-steppy breakbeats remix very much has classic metal guitar riffs.

Dust Bowl by Joe Bonamassa | Album Review

I can’t believe that Joe Bonamassa has released yet another album. After the storming success of his last album Black Rock which reached number one on the Billboard charts, I’m sure this one will do the same.

Brick By Brick by Arctic Monkeys | Single Review

Without warning, heads up or just not telling anyone, Arctic Monkeys have let out a new track just simply by uploading it onto the net and pasting their website address across the social media formats that they are connected with. Subtle.

Rope by Foo Fighters | Single Review | Official Music Video

There are rock bands and then there are rock bands. Here we see the return of one of the biggest rock bands of our time and in all.

Romborama by The Bloody Beetroots | Album Review

I get quite annoyed sometimes how certain musicians pass me by. When I finally come across them I hear the releases which have been out for a while only to find myself being totally in awe but months out of date.

Come Around Sundown by Kings Of Leon | Album Review

Not many people can argue the fact that the Kings Of Leon are quite possibly the biggest band in the world right now.
