LIVE: Australian Pink Floyd - Cardiff CIA - 22nd April 2010

“Better than the real thing” was one comment among the many overheard during the interval at Cardiff’s CIA on Thursday night. Quite an over-statement maybe but considering these guys are described as one of the best tribute acts on the planet, it could be forgiven this one time, because seriously, close your eyes and you’re there at a genuine Floyd gig.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (FEATURE)

Thank goodness I never found a bookmaker willing to take my bets on pop music’s next big thing. The fact that bands like the Howling Bells and The Concretes aren’t topping the bill at Glastonbury, conjures up a picture of a bookie’s outstretched podgy hand and a glum-faced me.

Of course I’ve backed the occasional winner in the last few years: I was one of the first to be raving about Franz Ferdinand and long before the Arctic Monkeys made the charts, I had them marked down as the bizz. But what’s there to shout about? As my granny used to say: ‘Stand a blind cat in a fish tank and sooner or later he’ll be munching on a guppy’.

Record Store Day 2010: What The Shops Had to Say (FEATURE)

Over the last couple of weeks, it has been difficult to miss news of this year’s Record Store Day. Reports of limited-edition releases from bands, such as the Rolling Stones, filled the music press prior to the event on the 17th of April. The biggest story of all was probably that of the new Blur single, ‘Fool’s Day’. It was their first release in seven years and has led to calls for a full return from the band. However, Blur were not the only people involved. A number of artists, including the Flaming Lips, Lily Allen and Hot Chip, were also busy getting records out in support of the day. Since last Saturday, Record Store Day 2010 has been hailed as the most successful yet. Many of the independent record shops that took part around the country have reported seeing queues that extended out onto the street.

Blood Red Shoes - Fire Like This (Review)

Blood Red Shoes feel like they’ve been around forever don’t they?! Well a bit like Wayne Rooney in that sense, they haven’t actually. Hitting the scene back in 2006/7, they made musical waves with singles Stitch Me Back and A.D.H.D, promising lovely big things to the NME’s New Music Tour crowd. Rather thankfully for the band, comparisons with the Shrek-headed footballer end there, as second album Fire Like This is at least a bit more alluring and a less sweaty joining of souls than an evening with Mr Colleen.
