One Night Only Ready New Album - Announce UK Tour Dates & Tickets

One Night Only will release 'Say You Don't Want It', the first single from their forthcoming second album on August 16th. The album, yet to be titled, follows a week later on the 23rd August. One Night Only have also revealed details of a summer UK tour. Dates below.

The hurtling first single and album opener 'Say You Don't Want It' is an instantly memorable song which talks of living like stars with beautiful girls and fast cars but also the fake and materialistic side of what can also be an empty and lonely world behind pop stardom. It captures the highs and lows - how it feels to be pop's most wanted and the darker flipside of pop success which the fans never get to see.

San Diego duo Crocodiles will release their new single "Sleep Forever" on July 5th through Fat Possum Records.

The perfect pre-cursor to Brandon Welchez & Charles Rowells sophomore record (due late Summer 2010), the album picks up where the trippy organ drones of their debut "Summer of Hate" left off. It washes us into the Californian desert where it was made.

Always ahead of the curve, Klaxons have returned with a new back to basics rock approach and a burning desire to turn the music world on its head once again and inspire kids to pick up guitars.

Harry's Gym - Harry's Gym (ALBUM REVIEW)

I think there is something special about the sound that can be achieved when a female vocalist fronts a group, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Florence and The Machine and Garbage to name a few which come to mind. And this band do not disappoint. The progressive pop/electro indie sound and Anne Lise Frokedal’s chilling, eerie vocals, produced by this Norwegian group provide a unique, despairing sound that can break your heart.

Grand Archives - Keep in Mind Frankenstein (ALBUM REVIEW)

This is Grand Archives 2nd Album from the band from Seattle, who formed in 2007, as the Archives. They are an American Indie Rock band made up of Mat Brooke, Curtis Hall and Jeff Montano.

Keep In Mind Frankenstein is a melodic, soft album mixing gentle music with soft airy vocals. There are hints of country and western and hints of 70’s American rock within this undramatic and unexciting medley of well played, well sung, easy to listen to tracks, which are overall, certainly not bad, but certainly not great.

Topsy’s Revenge starts the album with gently played instruments and a nice accordion accompaniment. The lyrics are emotive and sung gently but there is no real imagination or excitement.

Witchy Park/Tomorrow Will (Take Care Of Itself) is a nice track, happy and upbeat. The backing vocals and harmonies lift the song and the well played acoustic instruments make this a pleasurable track to listen to.
