Track Review: Pouty – Sad
California sweethearts deliver a track full of glamoured up qualms about anxiety White women singing about feeling sad and suicidal? Well that’s new. Whilst this may be something we’ve came to know (and get sick of) with Lana Del Rey, it would be harsh to say that Pouty are trying to rip her off in any…

Track Review: Kanye West – REAL FRIENDS
A common comment about any artist is that they’re not what they used to be, whether or not it’s a criticism depends on your own interpretation. In the Hip-Hop genre though it’s often a way to slate a rapper who has went against his original sound or image, whether it be selling out in order to make…

Gig Review: Echo Valley @ King Tuts ~8/01/2016

Best of 2015
2015 has been one of the most eventful years in recent history. A year just as full of tragedy as it was brimming with joyous occasions that put a smile on our faces. An annual event since 2013 when I made my first compilation of best albums, here’s another Best Of from us here at…

First week with Fallout 4: A Sorta Review
Foolishly enough, I was planning on reviewing Fallout 4 for some point this week. Obviously not the full game but I hoped to have at least finished the main campaign. Over 20 hours in and I’ve not even scraped the surface of Bethesda’s massive and weirdly beautiful post apocalyptic world so instead of trying to…

2015 has been full of blockbuster games like Call of Duty. So how did a game featuring two teenage girls manage to steal the Best of 2015 crown? “I knew you were important the moment I saw your first selfie,” says a familiar yet mysterious voice as soon as Life Is Strange’s finale boots up,…
