set fires
We found the term set fires in 31 articles.
Having toured with many large acts including James Blunt, Sheryl Crow and Joseph Arthur, Pallot's album 'Fires' is sure to be purchased primarily by fans she has won over with stunning live performances, myself included.
We Start Fires: Caught Redhanded
Mathematics aside this is a valiant effort from this US grrrl-punk scene influenced quartet. Underneath the guitars and quirky 80s' keyboard effects of this album lies a fair dose of pop-punk fused with the daily trials and tribulations of your average young rock and roll girl.
There always seems to be something rather good going on at The Faversham at the moment. In tonight's case we're treated to a single launch party in aid of those young new wavers O Fracas, the single in question is "Zeroes and Ones".
Band profile for the band We Start Fires
Dance To The Radio to release a new 22-track compilation CD in February
"What We All Want" -released on Monday 27th February- is the new 22 track compilation CD from Leeds record label Dance To The Radio.
'The Waltzers' arrives with the tub-thumping percussion of, say, the Guillemots, or even fellow Glaswegians the Fratellis.
I Call Shotgun crowned 'King of the Mountain' winners in Austria
Headingly based electro band I Call Shotgun have returned victorious from the Snowbombing Festival in Mayhoffen, Austria where they won the 'King of the Mountain' national battle of the bands competition.
Shard wail onto my stereo like a fucking alarm bell. Hit me, hit me, hit me! Riffs shooting out of their guitars like bullets from an MK47, vocals that scream down the mic shouting slap me in the face, yes, you, now you bastard!
To a backdrop of a velvet curtain and harsh white lighting Johnny Borrell exploded onto the stage. His extremely accomplished voice swept through all our favourites: 'Golden Touch', 'In The Morning', and so on.
Pray For Hayden: As The Sun Sets
Post-hardcore, emo crushers Pray For Hayden are here to bleed you dry. I believe this natty little EP is a first, if so then it ain't a bad squeeze.
"We aren't like any other band that are currently on the scene..." ahh the old classic. Anyone who's anyone who's been in a band has either thought it or said it and of course like all of them If I Were King are also incorrect.
Patience. Doctors have plenty of them, but alas the general music-buying public of today have very little.
Counting Crows: Big Yellow Taxi
Had it not been for a spat with Top Of The Pops some 10 years ago when the band refused to lip sync debut single 'Mr.
'More' starts off with a nice lazy beat, a bit of jangly guitar and then in comes Peter Bott with the vocals.
Festival Republic Stage line-up announced for Leeds Festival 2008
The Leeds Festival organisers have today revealed the line-up for the first Festival Republic Stage (formerly Carling Stage).
Nerina Pallot: Learning to Breathe
The third single from Pallot's quietly yet warmly received Fires reiterates the songstress' essential life-affirming message as conveyed through her lyrics of self-doubt and perseverance coupled with the magical musical arrangements.
Emanuel: Soundtrack to a Headrush
What a better way to kick start a record than the phrase "Listen up motherf**kers, this is the new unheard of, unspoken, so if you're down, then get down, and if not then get the fuck out".
Right from the get-go, Fuji Heavy's crazy Garage-Space-Punk fires a rifftastic rocket straight up your arse.
Line up announced for Across The Tracks festival
The line up for Across The Tracks, the two-day festival (29/30th July) that takes place in the Leeds city centre, has been announced this evening.
Adrenaline Injected Punk Rock'n'Roll
More of a commercial sound than the last CD, which is noticeable from the outset. Whilst I have to admit I liked the kinda raw feel of "Too little Too Late" this could be a step into the right direction for the band.
The Young Knives @ Leeds Festival 2008
British Sea Power start the final day and drive away any remnants of the morning's deluge. Unfortunately the wind, or the Main Stage's volume limiter, conspire to also wash away the sound, so only the manic flag waving at the front gives hint to how good they are.
Well, this is a pleasant record. Kind of pleasant in the Gary Lineker sense of the word. You know where you are with it.
Here's what I wrote for the lovely Sandman magazine in September 2005 ...
Why, oh why, oh why?? What is it with female bass players? Now I've been in bands with three myself and my current partner in rhythm, Miss Ravelle, is an exception to this rule...mostly anyway.
"Please excuse us, it's very hot in these cravats" winks Yellow Stripe Nine's quirky keyboardist with a cheeky smile pinned haphazardly across his malleable face, tongue firmly slotted into cheek, twinkly eyes joking merrily along with all this talk of decadence, sleaze and spotless white spats.
Forgetting it's Sunday I turn up just in time to see the end of Rob Galloway's set. This comprises of a song about doing something unsavory to a poor ginger girl's rectum and a cover of Electric Six's 'Danger!
Leeds Music Scene caught up with The Whip as they kick off their UK tour
Will Ridge interviews Tim Wheeler and Rick McMullen of the band Ash and tries to establish what the future has in hold for them now they have turned their back on the conventional album.
Wildhearts @ Scarborough Castle
So this is what I missed Leeds Festival for then. Catching the train out to the coast first thing on a Saturday morning (well, halfway to the coast - due to trouble on the line I end up getting a bus from York) to see the last ever gig by both Wildhearts and Terrorvision, today has the omens of being a good day.
