It’s not for the cock, it’s for the big expectations
The Big Pink- A Brief History of Love   They’ve been picked for the  BBC Sound of 2009 (kind of like winning a lottery ticket to success), have been written about everywhere, wowed a number of festival audiences this summer and now The Big Pink’s debut album is finally with us. The start of A Brief History of Love, the opening three tracks in particular, is...
MAP May
It’s MAP time again. This month I’m enthusing about Blue Roses, as I have here quite a lot already. The more I hear that album, the better it gets. But there’s a lot more of good worldwide stuff here. Check it out.   AMERICA: I Guess I’m Floating 4 Lands & Peoples – Awake Baltimore-based Lands & Peoples seem to have a knack for hypnotherapy.

MY BLOODY VALENTINE MP3s

My Bloody Valentine - The Palladium, Texas, April 2009 - download bootleg
This is the latest bootleg from the American leg of the MBV tour. The sound is a bit on the quiet side for such a loud band but all in all not a bad recording. The rumours continue about the promise of some new material this year but still no official word.    This is what the Dallas Morning News had to say about the gig.    By PRESTON JONES / Special Contributor to The...
Simon Says No!
Simon Says No! are a 4 piece experimental shoegaze/noise-rock band from Oslo, Norway. Considering the fact that before now, the only Danish music [surely you mean ‘Norwegian?’ - Ed] I’d heard was Aqua - Barbie Girl, their stuff is suprisingly good. When listening to SSN! it’s obvious that bands like Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine are big influences on them. They...
Skeleteen
Sludgy, surfy distorted No Wave rockers Skeleteen are a band with a difference. Kyle Justin and Matthew Eilers take their cues from Kyuss, Slint, Sonic Youth and even, some might say, Metallica. But their sound is not the only reason they’ve got people all over the world taking note. Kyle and Matthew are huge supporters of the animal rights organisation ASPCA, as well as massive supporters...
My Bloody Valentine - Dortmund Live Station, 3rd April 1989
Here you go then Robert. I don’t normally do requests but I’m in a good mood today. York City FC have a new manager and hopefully he will be the man to turn things around and get us into the play-offs by the end of the season…. has anyone seen my pig? It appears to have flown off!   Anyway this is actually a really good recording of the pre-"Loveless" My...
