Tell me I'm not the right audience for Andy Shades and you're probably onto something, but I've seen him in concert and know he's a decent musician who works with others of the same ilk, some of whom are the US playing here.
Wow, what a great young band. Fronted by the vest wearing Adam Sweeney, The Alamo churn out fast and furious spiky powerpunk riffs with a couple of memorable hooks which kick this evening off nicely.
A hot, rammed venue, filled with over 175 of Leeds' most fashionable rock'n'roll clientele, greets the return of young Leeds four-piece Orka, who set about to blast glam and fuzz rock in all directions.
She's Not Dead: Bedtime Stories
Some very accomplished playing, programming and production work lifts this 3 song (2 and 1 remix) CD out of the "ordinary" category, but limitations in the lyrics and overall sound holds it back from moving into the "extra-ordinary" league.
Deserves To Die: Surrender All But Our Skin
Deserves To Die are one of those rare British metal bands that manage to combine all the elements needed to succeed in the genre today, whilst never sounding derivative, or, in the case of most British metal bands, a lackluster alternative to their superior American counterparts.
Apparently the result of a tantrum after his record label told him that his initial efforts were too depressing we have former mopey alt.country boy turned 80's rock god.
There's a world of male dreams, TV series and British films where the Ford Capri, wide lapels and the wah wah pedal combine to create power, speed and cool calculation.
In such a short period of time, Just Jack has been thrown into the public eye with such speed I don't even think the original cheeky chappy knows what to expect on a February night in Leeds.
Hot Club De Paris: Drop It Till It Pops
I was looking forward to hearing this album having heard Everyeveryeverything and missing them supporting Maximo Park because of an inability to read my watch.
rock metal
Clone, dressed in their shades, have an uneasy obsession with writing songs about the stars and planets.
Edison Medicine @ Joseph's Well
Seeing as Kate expertly reviewed Inertia Crisis, who I missed a lot of, I thought I'd review EDISON MEDICINE.
Cathy Davey: Cold Man's Nightmare
This girl is a diamond. Or, more accurately, a mystical earth-princess of warmth and amber-shades nibbling on a toffee-apple and 'ooh'-ing at a bonfire who also happens to be able to write songs of such perfection (based on current evidence) that they've got you singing along three bars before they've even started.
Chindits @ Woodkirk Valley Country Club
Punk is punk is punk. Yeah? Well not here. In a single, unusually poorly supported gig, you could have seen at least three different shades of punk - really up close and personal.
Galitza: Laugh Like A Horse EP
There's extra special value for punters with this new and completely delectable horse-themed (note abstract gee-gee cover-art) EP from the Wrath records stable.
It's cold, it's Friday night, it's the Royal Park Cellars and it's empty for Herrod's arrival on stage.
Why is it that only guitarists can pull off wearing a cowboy hat? And why is it only drummers who wear vests?
Ambient, alternative music is on the cards tonight in the ridiculous upstairs room of the Atrium. Peasman, aka.
Lapdog @ Woodkirk Valley Country Club
The summer madness continues with a spanking good night of local music at The Strychnine Lounge last Friday - four bands, yup four bands - one stage and a room full of people demonstrating that the upward trend of the venue is continuing.
There's no room for shades of grey in today's digital world; you're hot or you're not. Anywhere other than that is destination nowhere (Five out of ten?
The New Roscoe on a wet Wednesday night was a new experience for me. This was my first gig there and having never been in I was unsure what to expect but as a live music venue I was pleasantly surprised.
Lightspeed Champion @ St George's Hall (Bradford)
BD1 Live seem incapable of putting a foot wrong. This conglomeration of some of Bradford's busiest and brightest promoters and general musos has consistently bashed out successful night after successful night, and there's no uncertainty over what exactly to expect.
Okay let's be straight right from the start. We weren't exactly there for Athlete right from the start.
Sigue Sigue Sputnik @ New Roscoe
Before I start I'd better point out that I like the Sisters of Mercy - have done for years, and probably always will.
When the lead singer of Trap 2 walked onstage tonight I couldn't quite believe what I was seeing. Was this four piece really to provide support for Kasabian or a tribute act??
Patience is no longer a virtue or at least if it is no one really gives a fuck anyway. What people want nowadays is immediacy.
The Ebb are about to reach make or break time. Ball-busting, tribally triumphant drums soundtrack the band's rock and Borrell swagger onstage, the supremely confident singer causally sauntering across the pit before thrashing himself into a Columbia sized riff.
Arctic Monkeys: Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys EP
How many million sales exactly? It beggars belief, it really does. Sorry to break yer suit jacket and jeans-wearing hearts kids, but it's time someone said the truth about this - the Arctic Monkeys are simply Not Very Good.
The Mooney Suzuki in Leeds. The Mooney who?! Luckily, a few raw enthusiasts for this New York beat combo managed to rustle up a crowd barely reaching a hundred, a real shame for a band whose live reputation back in the USA is huge.
Another night at the Well, they are going to have to give me my own chair at this rate... I have seen both Catylyst and Mariko before, but not Cube, although I have heard a lot about them.
First onstage tonight are the Bradford-based quintet Seven Hours, who mix a dose of funk into their otherwise straight-ahead rock sound.
Once again the well is full. The crowd seems slightly different from usual, there's a definite glitzy glamour and expensive smell about them.
Not many people are here to watch Buzzkill; a real shame, as they give it their all. Unfortunately there is a problem with the saxophone, meaning we don't get to see Matt Perrot strut his stuff, and this leaves half a brass section by the name of Ben Whittington, who's trumpet can barely be heard except during his fiddly solos.
Doubts over Alan McGee's sanity have become commonplace since his surrender of the once-great Creation Records to the likes of Mishka, Kevin Rowlands and the money men at Sony.
I knew I really couldn't miss this! I have seen both Albeit and Sugarvalve before but not Mariko. Saying that I feel as though I have.
A great concept for a night - no doubt. Let's drag some foreigners kicking and certainly screaming across those windy rain plagued hills separating the land and cram them into Leeds' "most intimate venue" to try and conquer a largely partisan audience, forced to miss the footie and demanding satisfaction.
OFM @ Counting House (Pontefract)
"Doncaster's finest" reads the promo. Overzealous PR, or straight-laced fact? My mission - uncover the truth.
Another cracking line-up courtesy of the Blue Star boys, this time with a bit of a rockier edge leading to possibly the fullest showcase since Leeds Music Scene maestro Dave Sugden and Joseph's Well manager Karl Baird began the monthly nights back in December 2000.
Joseph's Well in Leeds have played host to some rather well-known bands if their posters are anything to go by - and over the last few months it seems like they've booked mostly Biffy Clyro support bands (thisGirl, The Boxer Rebellion, X is Loaded and some little London outfit named Brigade...).
The Scaramanga Six @ Joseph's Well
