Seeyouspacecowboy / Killing Me Softly / Boneflower

Published: September 7, 2024 11:55
If you were to draw a Venn Diagram of Seeyouspacecowboyās influences, it would look like the product of a demented Spirograph. If I were to list them verbally, we would be here until the next tour. This is a band who pass through emo, nu metal, hardcoreā¦
Kneecap

Published: September 6, 2024 10:16
Many of the most creative ideas come from a night in the pub. Though oddly, the idea for Kneecapās debut album instead welcomes the listener into their own ā imaginary ā local. If The Rutz existed, itād be built as a community boozer on a West Belfastā¦

Published: September 5, 2024 12:27
Released back in July, this is well worth catching up with, as it could be the strongest and most complete realisation of Lilly and Gordonās ongoing mPCPQ usical project yetā¦ A heady mix of heady electronica, orchestration and squalling electric guitarā¦
Art Brut

Published: September 5, 2024 11:53
Fans of indie music will have spotted a recent trend for bands abandoning singing with lead vocalists instead speaking their lyrics. Dry Cleaning, Yard Act and Black Country New Road are among those adopting sprechgesang ā speak-singing ā Kraftwerk perhapsā¦

Published: September 4, 2024 22:45
The Beaches donāt need anyone to tell them theyāre good. The Canadian group have been around for 15 years and perform like a well-oiled machine, having a marvellous time and effortlessly entertaining everyone. Thereās a comfort and ease to it all, anā¦
Sleater Kinney / Gina Birch
https://www.isthismusic.com/sleater-kinney-gina-birch
Published: September 3, 2024 20:45
Sleater Kinney and Yo La Tengo playing neighbouring rooms in the same venue on the same evening seemed like a strange planning decision given their overlapping fanbase. Still, it made for an interesting game of pairing the fan to the show before everyoneā¦
Girl In Red / Nieve Ella

Published: September 2, 2024 11:02
Marie Ulven Ringheim ā aka Girl In Red ā is really keen that we know sheās not drunk. The singer songwriter has sold out two nights at the Barrowland Ballroom and, on this, the second night, sheās giddy on the elixir of music alone. Running around theā¦
Yo La Tengo

Published: August 28, 2024 20:23
Iāll level with you ā Iām probably not the right person to ask about value for money when it comes to live music. The eye-watering prices for, say, the Taylor Swift Eras tour, or Ticketmasterās ādynamic pricingā scheme, leave me lost for words. Plus, beingā¦

Pixies / The Pale White
https://www.isthismusic.com/pixies-the-pale-white
Published: August 22, 2024 15:16
When I discovered The Pixies it was like coming across a long lost grimoire. Often nonsensical, dark or twisted lyrics yelped and screeched at me over music that shouldnāt be pleasing to the ear, but somehow wasā¦ to the right people. āThis is the band Kurtā¦
