Noises of Velvet Underground on repeat...

It's been a really nice couple of days,actually. I always start these entries with an uncertain air,or perhaps something completely negative.But at the moment,I feel far from negative. I'm still a little worried that all of this will suddenly stop,suddenly be taken away from me and I'll be back to square one again,but I've had such fun and have felt well and truely enjoyed,it would all be worth it.But...

The Feelies: Crazy Rhythms and The Good Earth

The Feelies: Crazy Rhythms If Domino continues to invest its Arctic Monkeys millions in remastered re-releases like this pair, I’ll have no complaints. Looking at my much-cherished vinyl copies I’ve always thought that these should be released in additional formats and my prayers to the god of pop have finally been answered. Hailing from suburban New Jersey, the Feelies are clearly inspired...

Presenting…The Factory Kids

The Factory Kids have grabbed me by the short and curlies (I need to do something about those sideburns of mine). Based in Glasgow, Warwickshire lad Tim Chaplin and American lass Christina Marie (who came over to say hello at the 17 Seconds Records night in Glasgow last week) are plotting some weird kind of musical [...]

Tuned In: Julian Casablanca ... Way Out West ... Heavy Trash

"PHRAZES FOR THE YOUNG," Julian Casablancas (Cult Records/RCA) When The Strokes emerged earlier this decade some talked as though the New York City garage band would save rock music -- a ridiculous notion since rock wasn't dying and even if it were, one band certainly wouldn't save it. | read more

Something Beautiful

Following my last round of CD purchases , I've found something rather amazing. I'm a big fan of Michael Nyman's music; in this collaboration David McAlmont has turned Nyman's music to song. The result is extraordinary - The Glare in which McAlmont explores subjects as varied as 21st century piracy (‘Going to America’), trafficked prostitution in Europe (‘City of Turin’), sexually-charged...

Trashcan’s will be supported on all the dates by fellow Scottish band The Seventeenth Century, a band [...]

The 11 Best Nirvana Covers (you've never heard)

With this being Nirvana week...I wanted to try and do something special. Typically, I would do a "best of" list. But that's been done to death. Or I would do a B-sides list. But again...most of those have been released. So what would be a unique list that might get everyone salivating? Obviously unreleased material is always at the top of everyone's list. Now I could do a list of original...

Dancing The Night Away With Delightfully Tacky

How can I begin to describe the delight that is Delightfully Tacky ? You have to love a girl who lists Winnebagos as an interest, has perfect cascading curls, great personal style, and makes living in Alaska look like a dream. The girl behind the blog was also kind enough to plan out a dream dance party complete with an epic play list. What type of party is it? Rock and Roll dance party! It would last...

'Once and For All We're Gonna Tell You Who We Are So Shut Up and Listen' at Freud Playhouse

Like most teenagers, their blare precedes them. The sound is raucous, almost violent, as though a living room is being invaded by savages and its contents thrown in the air like confetti. These hormonal hoodlums are practically begging an authority...

Wednesday's Earful: Living Colour @ The HighLine Ballroom

By: David SchultzOn the night before Halloween, Metallica, Aretha Franklin, Jeff Beck and U2 held court at Madison Square Garden as part of the second night of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s 25th Anniversary celebration. Only a few blocks south, Living Colour, one of the truly great rock bands of our generation, reminded a sold-out crowd at New York City’s HighLine Ballroom that sometimes...

Michael Clark Company, Barbican, London

Rock music is good for Michael Clark. His latest work, Come, Been and Gone, shown as part of bite and Dance Umbrella, returns to the music of his teens: Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, David Bowie. Even the programme is designed to look like a 7-inch record sleeve. With this soundtrack, Clark and his company gleam with purpose. It's the best thing he's done in years.

Jon Savage on song: Link Wray plays his Ace

The guitarist's 1963 single, Ace of Spades, was insistent, sinister and hypnotic – and it opened a new world of sonic distortion "Electricity comes from other planets," quipped Lou Reed on the Velvet Underground's Temptation Inside Your Heart . Many a true word is spoken in ad lib. When rock'n'roll arrived in the mid-to-late 1950s, it sounded so strange that, for many, the only place...

The Blue Seeds

Led by the evocative voice of Amélie Laflamme, the music of Montreal-based The Blue Seeds resides somewhere between atmospheric-rock and alternative-folk. Some quotes about the band: “No doubt this is one this year’s revelations!” Journal de Montreal “A promising vision of work!” Montreal Gazette “I like the sultry vocals slightly tainted with sadness. And...
