Interpol @ Leeds Festival 2003
The first time I saw Interpol, I was blown away completely. I was hooked. Their astounding album "Turn On The Bright Lights" is one of the best in my collection.
It has been snowing all evening. From the centre of town, The Met is an uphill climb. It is icy. Falling is almost a certainty.
Band profile for the band Interpol
alternative rock
The new single from Ladytron is yet another fantastic slice of dark electro-pop. Where previous single Seventeen, was a pop masterpiece, this drifts into territory more familiar with a band like Broadcast and atmospheric gloom.
More bands added to Leeds Festival 2003 line up...
Mean Fiddler have this week announced additional acts scheduled to play at Leeds Festival: Interpol, Electric Six, The Libertines, Primal Scream, Junior Senior and Hot Hot Heat.
As apposed to sounding like some raw disco-punk, or nu-indie-disco DFA sound-a-like, this record reminds me most of Grandmaster Flash & The Furious 5, Afrika Bamabaata and general dodgy 80s 303 led hip hop.
indie electronica rock
This Et Al: Wardens / Rotary Queen
With a perhaps more accessible style than their mates Forward Russia there is just a chance that if they keep churning out this sort of quality, This Et Al could end up being the VHS of the relationship.
Joy, joy, joy. The slew of bands raping Joy Division's back catalogue continues. People who detest Interpol/Editors et al but like Joy Division are idiots.
Vicious Cabaret: Twilight Of The Idols EP
For those wondering what the whole Brit-garage-punk genre might sound like if only someone could be arsed to do it right, check out this new EP from Vicious Cabaret.
Although it opens with the slightly trembly vocals and chiming guitars best associated with playlist staples like Coldplay and their ilk, the debut single from Glasgow-based foursome The Cinematics may not be destined for Radio 2 after all.
Belfast four piece V//Formation haven't just been scouring their computer keyboard for some weird characters that will make their name leap off the page (or annoy reviewers everywhere: see Forward "it's not an 'i' it's an inverted exclamation mark dude" Russia!) Oh no V////////!!!!!formation have also been listening a lot to Placebo, Pixies and JJ72 for it is an ear pleasing blend of the 3 amongst pinches of Interpol and The Walkmen that make up the two songs on this their proper debut.
The Boyfriends: No Tomorrow / I Love You
While the band may have a crap name they actually do have the knack to pen a couple of decent tunes as demonstrated on this two-track CD.
Five O'Clock Heroes: Run To Her
Oh Jesus, When is this endless tide of pretty boy piss poor pop going to end? "Run to her" skips merrily around on my CD player but I think I am going to take it out in a minute and use it as a coaster.
Shed Seven - The Charlatans - Flowered Up - The Verve - aah, halcyon days indeed. These bands are almost certainly amongst the record collection of openers Silvertin and their facsimiles of the aforementioned bands in their songs are pretty spot on, if a little watered down.
Because of the Leeds hype-machine-like tendency of the Dance to the Radio compilations, all of a sudden twenty-odd unknown bands all of a sudden get thrust into the limelight and we get to see what happens.
Every Move A Picture: Heart = Weapon
It seems that for every excellent darkwave indie infused rock band that have turned up on the mainstream's doorway in recent years, a veritable backlog of similar, wholly uninspiring bands have formed a bottleneck behind them.
Various Artists: Roger / Boys of Scandanavia - split single
It's a funny thing, electroclash. A few years ago it was considered the in thing, the hip new sound from the underground, the tipple of choice for people who wear ghastly 1980s clothing and cake themselves in make up.
Six more bands announced for Leeds Festival 2003...
More Main Stage bands have been announced today for Leeds Festival 2003. Those band include: Jay Z, Junior Senior, Lost Prophets, Bowling For Soup, The Used and Finch.
alternative indie
Although I liked their early singles I failed to be inspired by Duels' debut album "The Bright Lights", hence it was more with interest rather than any actual desire that I approached this, their second album.
The Faversham as always has a good mix of Indie elite with the odd middle-aged couple wondering just where their evening went terribly wrong.
Nine Black Alps: Everything Is
Nine Black Alps are the latest in the long line of bands to be adorned with that oft used title 'The Next Nirvana' but for anyone who is now hearing band names such as Silverchair, Puddle of Mudd and Bush, fear not.
"...bridges the chasm-divided demographics of indie-pop and post-punk excellently" www.drownedinsound.com
The Most Terrifying Thing: Victoriana
Musically, what would the most terrifying thing be? Hows about Gary Glitter, on Speed, performing at a multi-racial Crèche?
Many more bands added to Leeds Festival 2003 line up...
More Main Stage and Radio One Stage bands have been announced today for Leeds Festival 2003. Those bands include: Staind, The Darkness, Cave In, The Thrills, The Kills, Jet, Grandaddy, Hell is for Heroes, The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster, Radio 4 and The Raveonettes.
The first wave of dance punk hit these shores in 2003. Flown in from New York in the wake of The Strokes, Interpol and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, it was depicted in typical NME fashion as the latest in a long line of movements to descend from the heavens and alter the course of music history.
progressive ambient post-metal
Your New Antique seem to have a solid formula for a fierce double-pronged attack on the music scene. The first of these slightly threatening-sounding prongs is one of the most efficient ways to endear your band to the media, which in this case comes in the form of a press pack.
More acts named for Leeds Carling Weekend Festival 2003...
More Main Stage, Radio One and Concrete Jungle Stage bands have been announced today for Leeds Festival 2003.
Considering there wasn't a lot of promotion for the showcase this evening at Leeds Mine this was one hell of a night.
Official line up for Leeds Festival 2007 revealed
The line up for the Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival 2007 was announced at a special launch party at Leeds' Cockpit this evening, and with (accurate) rumours in plentiful supply on the internet over the past few months, there was little by way of surprise.
This Et Al: Everything's irrelevant and no idea's original
The big art rock sound of This Et Al has plenty of variety and invention about it. There's a range of influences from Radiohead through Mogwai to Interpol and a vigorously accomplished approach to playing their instruments.
French Kicks: The Trial of the Century
The first track of this decidedly melodious album opens up like a blooming flower, with all the passion of The Walkmen and the synth-pop giddiness of Pulp aligned in a wonderful, mind/body/soul-warming manner.
BRMC to replace White Stripes at Leeds Festival...
Festival promoters Mean Fiddler have announced that Black Rebel Motorcycle Club will take the slot vacated by the White Stripes at this year's Leeds Festival.
In a full transcription of the interview that appeared in the May 16 issue of the YEP, Andy Roberts talks to Noble - guitarist from eclectic Bowie-esque soon-to-be superstars British Sea Power about growing up in Leeds and more...
Carling Stage bands announced for Leeds Festival 2003...
Bands have today been announced for the Carling Stages at Leeds Festival. The headliners are as follows: British Sea Power and Manitoba (Friday); Sparta and The Black Keys (Saturday); Billy Bragg and Brendan Benson (Sunday).
I love bands from Washington D.C. Especially bands that were or are on Dischord, the innovative, politically conscious and close knit label co-founded by Ian Mackaye (Teen idles, Minor Threat, Fugazi).
As Ian Curtis is my witness, Editors are good. They may not be the four most effervescent of chaps or the most endearing of performers but if nothing else, Editors prove substance over style should be the way to go any day.
Smirnoff Experience Dance Arena line up announced for Leeds Festival...
Bands have today been announced for the Smirnoff Experience Dance Arena at Leeds Festival. The headliners are as follows: Lamb (Friday); Death in Vegas (Saturday); and Audio Bullys (Sunday).
Moving Units @ Brudenell Social Club
Comparing bands is a funny business. You can say that a band are like the Happy Mondays, and mean it to be a good thing, but find that you are actually putting someone else off.
¡Forward, Russia!: Life Processes
Let's take a leaf out of the Life Processes book and get straight on with this one (it's precisely three seconds before the first of many huge choruses on display here).
Interpol had to drop out due to pressing engagement catching criminals in Paris airports (actually they were doing a Peel session if I heard rightly).
I arrived at The Vine late to see there was a change to the original line-up for the night. Wakefield three-piece Soberskin had conceded their slot third on the bill to open the night.
My first review for the site was really over indulgent in length, so I'll try to keep this one as short as possible.
The Cut @ Lawrence Batley Theatre (Huddersfield)
"Who needs Glastonbury when we've got Huddersfield!" announced the compère at the Noisebox Festival at the Lawrence Batley Theatre in the town.
The Sunshine Underground @ The Vine
Walker's instruments are powerful: drums are hit, guitars are thwacked, bass is appropriately loud; 'tis a shame that the vocals can't cope/don't try.
Beneath Augusta: Mellonova 00-03
Something must be happening in Canada these days. From the nation that brought us such luminaries as Bryan Adams, Celine Dion, and the miserable Alanis Morisette, the country that sits atop the United States of America is quietly out-doing their southern neighbour for quality musical exports.
Cathy Simpson talks with Sharin Foo of The Raveonettes ...
Having become rather disconsolate by seeing many unsigned bands who simply mimic their heroes, often succeeding in recreating the look rather than the sound of say the Libertines, Oasis and the Strokes, it was refreshing to see two bands for whom the music definitely came first at the Bassment.
Sucioperro: Random Acts of Intimacy
Competing for the youth of the nation's musical hearts and minds is no easy task. Sometimes you need a gimmick, a ruse that will make you or your band stand out from the many others who are all after the increasingly short and fickle attention span of the mainstream media and record buying public.
The Scaramanga Six @ Leeds Festival 2007
Wintermute - The Carling Stage Wintermute's prize for winning the Cockpit's Futuresound competition is the opening slot at the festival, 11.30am on The Carling Stage.
Sky Larkin @ Leeds Festival 2007
Turbofruits - The Carling Stage Hailing from Nashville these fresh faced blues-punks are a thrilling kick off to the day.
So I'm waiting for my friend, in the freezing cold, who happens to be twenty minutes late yes that's you sara gill, I ain't even gonna bother putting your name in capitals.
Manic Street Preachers @ Leeds Festival 2008
A night of torrential rain hasn't dampened anyone's spirits, although the ground is a little muddier than it has been over the previous 48 hours.
Minus The Bear @ Joseph's Well
Minus The Bear are a breathtakingly awesome band with a sound so in tune with the times whilst being apart from other bands of the guitar-electronics melody section, base-drums rhythm section set up.
The Duke Spirit @ Joseph's Well
Fact: good image + good stage presence + good songs + lot's of A&R men = getting a good record deal. ...And all this is true about Duels, the first band on tonight, at an absolutely jam-packed Joseph's Well.
