As last year, I will not be able to attend the music lover’s paradise, South by Southwest, and will have to explore the roster of artists from the swivel chair in front of my laptop (if I spin around fast enough every so often, I can attempt to simulate the dizziness brought on by wanting to see so many bands at once). Once again, there are many bands and artists that I already know about...
Polly Scattergood - "Please Don’t Touch"; There are worse things in the world then watching this Polly Scattergood video that’s for damn sure. With just her lovely self and her adorable voice she makes this video pop off the screen. The music and her beauty are obviously enough to sell this package so why mess it up with anything more creative then that? Grade: B- We...

Titus Andronicus MP3s

It’s not very often that you find music on this blog that needs to be listened to LOUD. But here we are. It’s not often these days that a proper rock record inspires me so much, but I’m so impressed by The Airing of Grievances by Titus Andronicus that I can’t let it go unmentioned.

We’re nearly three weeks into 2009, but you could argue that the year (in terms of music) officially begins this week.

Newman, Animal Collective, Andrew Bird, and Antony and the Johnsons? Just those alone would make it a worthwhile week for most,...
Patrick Stickles really, really, really cares that you ‘get’ what it is he’s trying to say. The Titus Andronicus frontman’s vocal - wobbling somewhere between wry and weary Paul Westerberg and Conor Oberst’s tantrum tones - navigates a thrilling, fickle register; dramatic ups and downs anathema to traditional hipster deadpan schlock, guitars too jaunty and hyped for...

Titus Andronicus Reviews

I went to this festival last Saturday and the weather was real hot and I had been at work all day not enjoying the sun. Things didn’t get off to a blinder too as I was walking past the many packed bars on Sauchiehall Street watching the Champions League final which would later lead to a disgustingly busy, almost, Ibiza-esque vibe given the weather. Luckily I didn’t have to wait for...
