Altogether very Envy Corps. The expected summery dynamic – complete with smiley, simple guitar hooks, pretty vocal melodies and even a wee bit of tambourine to set the tone more… “The Envy Corps”

Usually bands that describe their sound (if possible) as ‘plucking a spider’s web encrusted with dew drops’ are either a) piss takers of the highest degree, or b) arguing with their garden gnomes over who swiped the last microdot. more… “Soft Hearted Scientists”
Stroksian guitar flurries, Leeds accent, terrace chanting chorus (no, this isn’t the latest killer Cribs single). The Pigeon Detectives have always divided opinion, but ‘Take Her Out’ breezes in and out like a rowdy Kooks jaunt-along more… “The Pigeon Detectives”
East London three piece The Zico Chain specialise in the sort of distortion-doused gravel rawk we thought time had forgotten. more… “The Zico Chain”
Dance music followers will know Ali Love from his guest vocal slot on recent Chemical Brothers hit ‘Do It Again’. Upon hearing this you will know him as Ali Love – that bloke with the shite tunes. more… “Ali Love”
A jumble of the vivacious late 80’s euro-pop of Erasure and Simple Minds mixed with the slightly more sober and conscious music of INXS, Transaudio are a strange creation. more… “Transaudio”
B.R.M.C may well be a Jesus and Mary Chain knock off, but straight imitation and siphoning another’s sound to create your own are two very different things. more… “Black Rebel Motorcycle Club”
‘Ask The DJ’ is a catchy, autobiographical tale, mixing odd staccato rythms, Sway’s assured, humorous rap and a sung girl/boy chorus into a curious but catchy song. more… “Mr Hudson vs. Sway”
I love the way the Horrors divide audiences. Live, they are a pretty intense short, sharp shock to the senses, some of the best fun in town since those early Jesus and Marychain mid 80s gigs. more… “The Horrors”
‘3 Minutes 4 U’ is a delirious romp, all sweet, strident female vocals and buoyant guitar driven punk-pop hooks. Not the most original song ever but deliciously catchy, goodtime indie-pop. more… “The Trudy”
