Arctic Monkeys - Suck it and See.
Never has an album title been so fitting as to what I am about to do!
Rarely do I delve into the forays of indie rock, usually because indie bands of today rarely stand out. Run of the mill Indie usually, and regularly results from sucking emotion out of a pop-rock band, but like all genres, it does have those artists who break out into chart popularity, one of these bands- of course- is Arctic...

Exclusive interview with Blackwater James!
We caught up with vocalist & guitarist Chris James and drummer Todd Schlosser…

The Dead Lay Waiting - Almost Heaven Review
The Dead Lay Waiting – “Almost Heaven” Review
By Tom McConnell
Having been looking at stage times and looking to plan my Download 2010 weekend out, I found myself with a blank slot early afternoon on the Saturday, so I started looking at bands further down the line-up and stumbled across The Dead Lay Waiting, the single gaining my intrigue, “Anxiety of an Obsession.” I should have...

How important is vinyl in the modern world?
The fuzzy overtones, the little scratches, the accidental remixes as the disc skips; you can’t really beat the sound of vinyl.
Frenchman Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville is the man behind the creation of the phonoautograph, a machine used to portray the visual characteristics of sound before Thomas Edison developed the idea, creating the phonograph. The phonograph had the added functions of being...

The Click Five- TCV
The Click Five supported McFly on their tour around four years ago and could have easily been pigeon-holed as ‘just another boyband’ and, at the time, they were. They had fluffy choruses, they were cutesy and while they put on a fantastic show, they didn’t seem to make an impact on British audiences.
That is hopefully about to change. TCV is a much more mature album and The...
