iLiKETRAiNS: A ROOK HOUSE FOR BOBBY
iLiKETRAiNS have always been renowned for their sublime refusal to conform to a single genre and style within their music, particularly with their exceptional debut double single BEFORETHECURTAiNSCLOSE.
The Voyeurs: If I'm Right / World
The Voyeurs certainly know how to do good pop music, yet make it listenable for the most 'alternative' of music fan.
The Lost 45s UK to release a new EP on November 5th
Leeds band The Lost 45s UK will release a new EP on Monday 5th November. "Experiments In Pop" will be available via the band's website for just £1.49 including P&P.
Perhaps best known for the wonderful "Size Of A Cow" and their collaboration with Vic Reeves, The Wonder Stuff were a strongly supported band in their day.
Seriously, what's in the water in Wales? As Silence Falls are the latest in a long, long line of Welsh bands blazing a trail across metal, heading straight for super-stardom.
iLiKETRAiNS: BEFORETHECURTAiNSCLOSE
If the Kaiser Chiefs are Leeds' masters of all that is cheery then iLiKETRAiNS are doom merchants placed on this earth to turn all those smiles upside down with dark and ever so sinister post rock epics.
"Spiteful, cynical, rock noir"
The Scaramanga Six: Horrible Face
Sweet sounds but with a raw quality, then biting operatic bitter vocals crooning "Where did you get that horrible face?" Then a soaring heartfelt chorus yelping out "You ugly ugly cow!" The Scaramanga Six certainly know how to bend the rules of pop music and when they do it it still create a very successful end product.
Cash Mattock: 21st Century Sleaze
God this is a tricky one, so it's going to be really brief. First off because this album contains 17 songs of which describing each ones sound would take me forever (the press release which came with this CD is 4 A4 sheets long!), but primarily because this guy is a bloody nut, and his album hums with this undertone.
After arriving home from my brief holiday in Iceland, it's ironic to find a song about summer waiting on my doorstep.
Mildly sinister string music leads in to God Forbid's support set at the Met. There are many horn forefingers and pinkies raised without a trace of post-Beavis and Butthead irony and they kick into their post-everything metal.
This is the third album from Jeff Klein, a New Yorker relocated to Austin, Texas. It opens with the title track, with lullaby acoustic guitars and some truly beautiful, sparse, throbbing slide guitar.
Wrath Records announce Super Sevens singles club...
WRATH SUPER SEVENS - the aural equivalent of Reader's Digest, this singles club subscription will bring you a veritable smorgasbord of indie/rock/garage/punk mayhem in six highly collectable split 7-inch releases featuring the might of the Wrath roster plus some rather distinguished guests.
Rose Kemp: A Hand Full of Hurricanes
OK, hands up, how many of you initially thought Rose Kemp was a tongue-in-cheek novelty act based on former Eastenders hard-man Ross Kemp?
There's not a lot of bands that can make you feel like you're on a mind-altering drug when you're actually chronically sober.
Eureka Machines: Being Good Is Okay (But Being Bad Is Better)
Chris Catalyst appears to have had his sinister fingers in any number of Leeds-baked pies in recent years.
Sometimes you can just tell a band's going to be good from their name. These guys call themselves The Budda Cakes so obviously they're gonna be brilliant.
It's cold, it's Friday night, it's the Royal Park Cellars and it's empty for Herrod's arrival on stage.
As the year comes to an end Vib Gyor can look back and smile. An ever growing international fan base, great reviews, spectacular live shows and even a mention in American magazine Entertainment Weekly and after listening to this latest collection of their work it suggests that 2005 is going to be even better.
GF93: The Bloody Bastard Remixes
I have never heard of GF93, but I've met a lot of bastards in my time. You know the type, the ones who don't have a father.
After listening to this hurtling rollercoaster of a musical offering, one would be forgiven for imagining Leeds' Grammatics create their masterpieces holed up in a candlelit gothic garage, in between earnestly skimming Tolstoy, purely for artistic merit.
The Cooper Temple Clause @ LMUSU
The Cooper Temple Clause tonight are playing the final British gig on the tour of their second album: "Kick-up The Fire and Let The Flames Break Loose", one of the more longer winded titles I've come across this year.
Storming out of Sweden are brother and sister combo Olof and Kristin Dreijer, aka The Knife. Unlike other famous brother and sister combos, the music isn't thrashy garage rock, nor is it arty punk pop.
Maximo Park: Our Earthly Pleasures
I had the privilege of meeting singer Paul Smith at a small record store in Durham way before 'Apply Some Pressure' had propelled them to Radio One stardom - way before the fabulous Jo Whiley had jumped on the indie bandwagon.
Rhode Island all come from Leeds. You will never have heard of them. This is because their current CD goes under a different guise.
Having reviewed his other album, I feel a bit apprehensive as to what Munkie's done with himself since.
If you happen to be young, intelligent and restless, Coventry is a surprisingly inspiring place to be today- if only for all the wrong reasons.
'A trip through London, Paris and the Nag's Head' is what I was promised when I first looked at the promotional blurb on the front of the CD.
Various Artists: Lancaster: The Bands
You would have thought that Lancastrians would have come to terms with the fact that they're never going to get the better of us lot, but it would appear that they're still up for the challenge.
ESCLAVAGE A rather melodic beginning for a band that seem ready to tear the new roscoe down. This song turns into a roaring mosh-fest in seconds with all members showing good stage presence.
A Hawk And A Hacksaw @ Holy Trinity Church
Contemporary Music Network tours are usually pretty special. But this was extra special. This was my first time in the Holy Trinity Church, and whilst the architecture hardly resembles that of the York Minster or Barcelona's Sagrada Familia, I don't think there are any live venues in Leeds which can match this type of setting.
The monthly TTS, or the Tea Time Shuffle, could soon become an institution. It's Friday, it's 6 o'clock, the Hi-Fi bar is well and truly open and 3 and a half of Leeds finest bands are playing before your increasingly Southern Comforted eyes and all for just a fiver.
A pretty quiet start to the evening for a Saturday night in Leeds, and bloody cold too, so I was looking for something to warm my cockles.
Dum Flux opened up the evening in a punk rock fashion. Melodic, energetic but let down by out of time guitars and slightly out of tune vocals.
Leeds' local punk, emo and ska promoters Strikepunks put on a veritable banquet of emo hardcore deliciousness this Friday, as the Cardigan Arms played host to four hot new bands playing the circuit for nothing more than that which is the greatest love of all, that wonderful love of music...
One Bullet Left @ Snooty Fox (Wakefield)
The Snooty Fox in Wakefield is slightly different to the majority of pubs that you'll will have no doubt drank in.
