LIVE: KISS - Birmingham LG Arena - 5th May 2010

Is there anything in the world more worth seeing than a 6-foot blood-spitting, platform-booted, winged demon. A bare-chested, scream machine Starchild. A guitar-shredding Spaceman and a levitating drumming Catman?

LIVE: Scouting For Girls - O2 Academy Glasgow - May 4th 2010

I do not hold shares in Fred Perry, Ben Sherman, Adidas or Abercrombie and Fitch. However, something is giving me the distinct impression that I ought to. The homogenous sea of recurring brands swamps the bar on this fairly nice Tuesday night. There are teenagers, fathers and mothers, mid-twenties perennial party goers and middle-aged dancing barflies. The full gamut of ages. Given that this range gets considerably and unsurprisingly smaller the closer to the stage one gets, it's really no surprise that the safest mix tape in the world plays at a considerable volume. Children sing to the strains of 'Livin' On a Prayer', 'American Idiot', and 'Summer Of 69'; butterflies dance in the liquid glow of the house lights...

Norwegian Band Harrys Gym Announce UK Tour Dates

Harrys Gym are the latest band to come out of the Scandinavian SXSW Bylam and are currently in the studio with URB next 100 producer James Rutledge.

‘Like leaves on the ground, but rather snow in the air, swirling and massive, weightless and fragile’ … is the most apt metaphor to describe the angelically haunted voice of Harry’s Gym vocalist Anne-Lise Frokedal.

With a liking to Garbage, Mew, Blonde Redhead and The Knife, the Norwegian quartet are “wonderfully soaring, dreamlike prog-pop that's more northern sorrow than Northern Soul – but not too oppressively bleak.” (Guardian, Band Of The Day).

INTRODUCING: Stars of the Search Party

Guilford’s Stars Of The Search Party have been playing almost constantly across the UK over the last eighteen months, and have built themselves an impressive UK fan base in the process.

With such an infectious sound, it’s not really such a surprise; the band combine power metal guitars, electronic flourishes and an anthemic, but aggressive, punk-rock outlook that simultaneously brings to mind the likes of Underoath, Enter Shikari and Proceed.

Diana Vickers - Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree (REVIEW)

Let's get The X Factor out of the way first. Diana's finished with it and moved on, and that's exactly what we should be doing. It may have been an effective platform for her, but that's all it was - a platform, not the be all and end all of her musical career.

The fact that she hasn't signed with Simon Cowell and produced an album full of Ryan Tedder penned ballads should be more than enough to prove that Diana is doing things her own way, and doing it well.
