Peaches – Peaches- I Feel Cream
We wouldn’t expect any less from Peaches at this stage than a song title like ‘I Feel Cream’ now would we? The second single off the album of the same
Mini Viva
Will the supply of popstars from the Simon Fuller factory never end? The latest addition of pop entities you just want to hate are British popstrels Frankee and Britt, AKA
Pearl Jam
After soiling their reputation for too many years by residing in the wasteland of nondescript dad-rock, Pearl Jam appear to have pulled themselves from out of the depths with current
Bad Lieutenant – Never Cry Another Tear
Stupid Peter Hook. What did he ever do for New Order? Sure, he had a COUPLE of sweet basslines. And yeah, maybe he gave an otherwise clean-cut and sappy band
Islands – Vapours
At a time Islands seemed as destined for mythology as the namesake of their previous incarnation, The Unicorns. Their second album, the piss-poor, personality-free Arm’s Way burst that particular bubble

Pixar, the animation house responsible for modern classics WALL.E and Finding Nemo, have joined forces with Disney on their latest flight of fancy, Up. Under increasing pressure from a construction
Modeselektor
Berlin’s brightest pair of messers, Modeselektor, were two-thirds of the bass-heavy force that gave technoheads their Electric Picnic highlight this year (the other third being long-time comrade-in-synths Apparat), the portmanteau
The Dead Weather – I Cut Like A Buffalo

Boys Noize
Alex Ridha is a busy man. He is taking a well deserved break and enjoying a stroll around a particularly blustery Berlin, as Totally Dublin catches up with him for
Brendan Muldowney on Savage – Part of This Year’s Darklight X Festival
A young man’s despair following a brutal assault soon descends into a consuming desire for revenge in Brendan Muldowney’s exploration of the nature of violence at its most viscous and
The Cribs – Ignore The Ignorant
Imagine for a moment the sinking Titanic of British indie, shipwrecked as it is on the iceberg of lady-helmed electropop. There’s a serious shortage of lifeboats, but thankfully Leeds’ The
Dizzee Rascal – Tongue N’ Cheek
The day had to come when Dizzee washed the grime off his high-tops and scrubbed up nice in a suit. Much has been made of this newer, starrier, self-produced incarnation
The Flaming Lips – Embryonic
There are many good reasons to record a double album. Just because it occurred to you that you should is not one of them. Having said that, I enjoyed this
