The Divine Comedy Announce UK Tour Dates & Tickets

Fresh off the back of a well deserved Ivor Novello nomination for his work with his cricket-crazy side project, the Duckworth Lewis Method, The Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon will be playing a sold out show at London's sumptuous Somerset House on July 17th ahead of summer festival dates and an extensive UK tour in November.

Hannon's new single 'I Like' is released on August 1st through Divine Comedy Records. The opposite of a soppy, sappy ballad, it's set to the kind of ecstatic motown stomp that makes toe-tapping an inevitability. Surely the feelgood hit of the summer.

THE AGITATOR - 'Get Ready/Let's Start Marching' - Review

The Agitator is Derek Meins, one very angry guy with a lot to rant about and Robert Dylan Thomas on the drums, formally the drummer with The Maccabees. Get Ready/Let’s Start Marching is a 2 track release, due out on the 5th July.

It is a raw stripped back sound, used to put across protesting lyrics about the world we live in are quite punk in their ideals, but far from punk in sound. In sound it is almost Chico meets hip hop and that can never be good. Poppy and thought provoking the tracks may be but ultimately they are lacking in quality or depth. The music is poor with the simplest of hip hop beats, not heard since New Kids On The Block, even Robert’s pounding of his drum skins does nothing to lift the quality.
