thisGirl @ Leeds Festival 2002
Having got a support slot with this band, this was a perfect chance to check them out. The band play punk metal type stuff with mellow bits in between - a bit like Lost Prophets but not quite as heavy.
Do Me Bad Things: Whats Hideous
I wasn't sure what to expect from a band with a listed six vocalists and a support slot with The Darkness under their belts.

2006 + 2007 Futuresound finalists. Debut single Primadonna released 30 Apr 07 on Science Fiction Theatre Records Playing NASTY FEST @ Faversham on Sat 3rd Nov
Putting Air Traffic as the second band on the line-up is extremely misleading. The implication given to the unsuspecting audience is that their performance will be equal to that of a slapdash support slot; anyone expecting this kind of set is about to be proved wrong in the most spectacular fashion.

four day Hombre release their Radio One acclaimed First Word is the Hardest debut single on July 7th.
Would putting rock bands in a massive hole work? With a crowd made-up of mostly of people wanting to be seen and grab the free booze, it was a triumph for the bands for so many to be grabbed from the bar by the quality of the music.
Entering the Cockpit, immediately I am aware of the amount of people here already, at this sold out show, in time for the first support act Data.Select.Party.
The Wedding Present: Interstate 5
In 1997 The Wedding Present was put on hold while Leeds favourite Indie son embarked on a new path exploring strings, flutes, film scores, sweet melodies and a lesser degree of big guitar.
God Speed You Black Emperor! @ St George's Hall (Bradford)
God Speed You Black Emperor! come from Canada. They wear shirts, buy amplifiers and get scared by tall buildings.
As a fan of all things from the icy plains of Iceland, it's good to see Minus landing on my doorstep.
First of all this gig is criminally under attended, because all three bands are really good. Beards are a three piece who come on stage dressed head to toe in what look like nu-rave garden gnome outfits.
The Cockpit to host a monthly unsigned showcase...
Due to the success of the annual Futuresound competition and the mounting climate of the local music scene Futuresound Music Ltd has decided to launch a monthly unsigned showcase.
After waiting for what seemed like an eternity for any action on stage and supping the over priced bottles of beer (because the draft had run out!) Oceansize took to the stage amidst an array of guitars (6 in total), laptops and large drum set-ups.
Victoria Holdsworth catches up with Hull band The Bonnitts before they go on stage at Beach 2006 in Scarborough
You know when a song just grabs you and won't let go? The music courses through your bloodstream and into your mind and your murkiest thoughts...
Adam Green: Jacket Full of Danger
After recent support slot with fellow friends The Strokes and briefly having a diary in NME, Adam Green is back with his new album, Jacket Full Of Danger.
We arrive at the Met bar ten minutes before doors open, to see the queue stretching all the way down the road, towards Millennium Square.
Alternative Pop & Rock act with a nod towards the more obscure...
I just made it to Rio's in time to catch Cursed Diamond doing a pretty decent a cover of "Fell In Love With A Girl" for their final song.
Making new discoveries is always exciting. Few self-respecting music fans will disagree that finding a promising new band is one of the main reasons to get up in the morning - perhaps only over-ridden if somebody's cooking something lovely for breakfast.
I started my day in a very groggy fashion indeed. I had already come to terms with the fact that my football team (Tamworth FC) will be slogging it out somewhere outside of the football league next season, and that I was flat broke after paying long overdue bills...
I don't know whether it's the great big pillars blocking everyone's view, the bizarre bar-queuing system, the epic journey required to reach the toilets or just the rubbish sound but the Refectory has never been a favourite venue of mine.
Come with me on a little journey in time all the way back to late 2001 when this reviewer was reluctantly in Heaven and Hell with some pissed-up pals.
A few weeks ago I teased Kez, lead singer with local band Albeit, after they secured a support slot with Scottish rockers Idlewild at Bradford University.
My day started off surreally, an early morning phone call from my old dear asking me if I've heard of a band from Sheffield, called Milburn?
Paranova @ The Old Cock (Halifax)
The Old Cock has recently been celebrating the renewal of is entertainment license, and a decent sized crowd had assembled in what is the town's temple of live music. The support slot was filled by a band new to my ears, a swampy rock outfit named The Roller 6ix.
So I'm stood at the edge of the dancefloor looking on. Two guys are somewhat the worse for wear, they and they alone seem lost in a parallel universe where unpredictable currents are making their fight to keep their footing a forlorn hope.
Many People don't like ska. I am one of those people. I just don't get it! I understand the aspect of "fun" in the music, I understand that many local ska bands incorporate as many instruments as possible in order to rectify the lack of musical talent.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club @ Leeds Town Hall
So then ladies and gents lets go back a couple of years when Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, the Strokes and the White Stripes were unleashed on us surrounded by a haze of media frenzy and unadulterated cool.
Clint Boon Experience @ Cockpit
Tonights support came from the Fuzz Light Years - their name sounding like it might promise Super Furry Animalesque psychedelia.
Daniel Powell talks to York's Elliot Minor as they begin their tour at Leeds' Cockpit venue.
Rob Galloway Dubbed 'The Rebel of the Leeds Music Scene' ROB GALLOWAY describes himself as Beck meets Iggy Pop, creating an electric sound from dance beats, guitars, trip hop and punk rock
Deerpark: It made her look spidery
The slightest thing about this CD is the relative frailness of the songs themselves. The tunes are gentle modulations around a couple of notes that suit the singer's range.
The Sunshine Underground @ The Vine
The Printed Sound began proceedings on Friday night at The Vine, following their inclusion into the first Leeds HMV Showcase.
With 'Hey There Delilah' firmly planted in the Top 5 of the UK charts, this gig tonight is most definitely sold out.
'The greatest records in the world can be put on in any situation: you can put them on at a party and they're going to sound great, you could put them on in a club and they're going to sound great, you could put them on on your headphones and listen in bed.

On the 17th December '05, I had the pleasure of meeting one of the hardest working front men in the music industry, Ian Prowse (no relation to the bloke that played Darth Vader). He is the lead singer with the band Amsterdam.
The Research: The Old Terminal
It may surprise some of my acquaintances, but I didn't always spend my spare evenings propping up the bar at the Faversham nursing a pint of Theakston and stroking my chin to the latest peripheral sounds.
It's a noble sight: performers fighting the flu and still giving an audience what they came for. The bug-victim count was fairly high on stage when Crosscut Saw battled their way through a couple of sets of fine stuff - even if it was as late as fifth song's guitar solo before the full spellbinding effect gripped listeners.
Dave Cooke talks about life after Landspeed Loungers, Wrath Records, the local scene and the fortunes of his new band...
From Chambers Dictionary we have the following: 'Polytechnic - adj. of many arts or technical subjects; n.
Biffy Clyro @ Leeds Festival 2007
Mute Math - The Carling Stage The New Orleans quartet are perhaps only known thus far as recently re-doing the Transformers theme and for their excellent video to "Typical" which has attracted over 1 million views on Youtube.
I have to say I was pleased that this event was taking place, my 82-year-old gran had a full right mastectomy to fight breast cancer only 3 years ago, and I have lost an Aunt to cancer.
Victoria Holdsworth talks to The Glitterati as they make a welcome return to their hometown.
Andy Roberts gives les Flames! a grilling...
There are few bands in 2004 that can quite captivate the listener in a complete contrast of emotions like Aereogramme, we speak to singer/guitarist Craig B about the release of impending mini album "Seclusion", touring the world in a beat up transit van and... skeleton xylophones
Red Stars Parade: a refreshingly piquant slice dropped into Leeds' musical soft drink
