FOE and Fever Fever at Camden Barfly - 30 January 2012
Fever Fever   Having forgone a gig last week due to indisposition, I’m delighted to almost immediately have the chance to catch up with one of the bands that I missed. I’m primarily here this evening to catch Fever Fever, about whom I have heard great things. They are bottom of the bill. On tonight’s evidence, this is not a position that they are going to have to put...
The Kabeedies "Little Brains"
Myspace // "Lovers Ought To" [Audio] They call themselves "pop music, but shit," but I really have to disagree with that statement. This Norwich four-piece has a sound that is uniquely British, and at times even reminds me of Jamie T, as they expertly mix pop and skiffle. The band’s latest single, "Little Brains," was released yesterday on NRONE...
Cobra Mist
We featured some stills from Emily Richardson’s film, Cobra Mist, a few issues back, alongside an interview with Chris Petit, who was to discuss the East Anglian landscape with Richardson at the Aurora Festival in Norwich. Cobra Mist is a beautiful film, not least because of its sound design - the sound was recorded by Chris Watson and composed from those recordings by Benedict Drew...
Some ‘respected’ U.K. magazine makes list of ‘50 artists who are going 2 alter the future of music
Sometimes I read blogs that post ‘relevant stories’ that were generated by magazines. I am not sure if music magazines will still be alive in _ years, but I think that their last opportunities to ‘get people to visit their websites’ means making ‘huge lists’ where they list a bunch of blogworthy/noteworthy people, then get ‘the entire internet’ to...
Shrag / Violet Violet/ Town Bike at 229 18 March 2009
Heading down the stairs into the sterile environs of 229 I find that Violet Violet have just started their set. I’m just grateful to finally catch them. This trio from Norwich has been on my wish-list for well over a year, but I’ve always been thwarted by gig clashes, non-appearances or evenings that have run so late that I have needed to be tucked up in bed before they set foot on...

Latitude Festival 2011
We were there, in person. Physically. I have the aching muscles and mud piled in every pore to prove it. In only its 5th year (correction: 6th year! Ed.), Latitude has carved out quite a niche for itself, nestled in the South East ‘Sunrise Coast’ of England, between Norwich and Ipswich. With time allotted for only one weekend away to cover festivals personally this year, this was...
Your Elbow EP
Band name: LE TETSUO Teaser: They hurl, scream, gob, gurn and shake their bums like electrified monkeys - they are Norwich’s Tetsuo, and their DIY mayhem has been captured in this debut EP. Emily Kendrick brings us the following words… Pull quote 2: not one song clocks over two and half minutes, and the wild banshee singing fits like bric a brack…...
