What I Did On My Holidays...
My recent attempt to catch some live music whilst on holiday in Venice and Stockholm was a bust. Not from want of trying though. As it was, I had to run to the hills from the prospect of Sting and his Symphonicity tour stinking up St Marks Square. (Warning: The video contains images of extreme smugness). The Biennale was good though. Stockholm on the other hand was teeming with good...
Mr Monk and the London Buses
PARSLEY'S COMMLOCK TV Review : Monk - Mr Monk Goes To A Rock Concert My Mum has introduced me to this amazing show which she discovered by accidentally leaving the TV on after something else she was watching. At first she thought it was crazy, then she got hooked. She describes it as Seinfeld with detective work. It stars Tony Shalhoub as ex-policeman Adrian Monk who keeps getting involved in...

It’s even harder for bloggers like the Devil because, by our very nature, we deal...
Chad VanGaalen - City of Electric Light
After putting the finishing touches on his award-winning science fair project, Mr. VanGaalen has found the time to bang out some mighty fine pop music that is now available to the world via Sub Pop. "City of Electric Light" is Exhibit A: elegiac acoustic simplicity garnished with tasteful percussion and xylophone. Chad is heading across the pond to the U.K. and Sweden in the next week...
The Daily Graboid
We’re nearly three weeks into 2009, but you could argue that the year (in terms of music) officially begins this week. Lots of big name players have albums out this week and trying to single out just one to purchase wouldn’t be fair. New stuff from A.C. Newman, Animal Collective, Andrew Bird, and Antony and the Johnsons? Just those alone would make it a worthwhile week for most,...

Porter - Atemahawke
Origin: Guadalajara, Mexico Album Release: 2007 Similar Artists: Sigur Ros, Radiohead, Caifanes, Cafe Tacuba Influenced by some of modern indie rock most texturized and delicate styles, Porter took a chance and used them to sculpt their second album.

Don Blandford tackles the question as he examines the return of Swedish duo Club 8, who are back with this - their fith record… Pull quote 2: The Swedish twosome may be too sweetly indiepop for those reared on pretty boys with guitars...
