  • The Horrors – Luminous review

    If I were to point out one aspect that The Horrors seem to excel at, it would have to be reinvention. When their debut Strange House emerged onto the scene, the Gothic sound of it that reeked of Robert Smith’s aura was laughed off by many music fans at the time however these same people…

    ALBUM REVIEW: TURN BLUE – THE BLACK KEYS

    The Black Keys aren’t exactly new to the music scene. In their career that has spanned 13 years, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney have released 7 albums that have gathered praise from critics and rock fans alike, most notably their 2010 release Brothers which brought the duo a lot of commercial success as they were…

    Paolo Nutini – Caustic Love review

    Paolo Nutini is a hard one to pigeon hole. While most artists find a sound that serves them well and stick to it for album after album, the Paisley born singer song-writer continues to delve into different genres in each of his album releases with his debut These Streets containing a nice blend of Pop…

  • Top 10 Controversial Music Videos

    Ever since Video Killed The Radio Star debuted on MTV over 30 years ago, music videos have became a huge canvas for artists to express their creativity but just in the same way that violent movies rile up the media and parents, so to can certain music videos. Some are odd yet creative while others…

  • Foster The People – Supermodel review

    Hype is a double-edged sword. Bands like The Strokes have suffered from receiving an extreme amount of acclaim in the early part of their careers which results in unrealistic expectations for future releases. Mark Foster declared that he had “created a monster” when reflecting back on Foster The People’s smash hit Pumped Up Kicks. For…

  • Bombay Bicycle Club – So Long, See You Tomorrow

    It’s odd to think that five years ago “I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose” was released and made music lovers aware of four boys who were not just an alternative to the Arctic Monkeys who dominated the indie rock scene at the time but were an act that had a lot of…

  • Biffy Clyro – Rank The Albums

    Well, this’ll be difficult. After all, Biffy Clyro are one of the few bands I can recall having a consistent delivery of high quality music over their career though that may be a bit bias seeing as I’m a huge fan of them. Initially I thought this list would be a lot easier as I…

  • Looking For Alaska by John Green

    “When adults say, “Teenagers think they are invincible” with that sly, stupid smile on their faces, they don’t know how right they are. We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken. We think that we are invincible because we are. We cannot be born, and we cannot die. Like all energy,…

  • Tyler The Creator – Goblin

    So recently I wrote a review on Earl Sweatshirt’s debut Doris, praising it for showing off the potential the Odd Future member had and for solidifying his career in the genre. The person we have to thank, other than Earl himself, for that record even being possible is Tyler The Creator, the leader of the…

  • Chvrches – The Bones Of What You Believe

    Now this album could have gone horribly wrong. Chvrches could have produced a bland album with repetitive and dull songs and been a total let down from the potential they had shown on their previous EP’s as well the hype they had accumulated on the music scene.Thankfully this is not the case with The Bones…
