Feeder - ‘Tracing Lines’ Music Video Review

Feeder are one of those bands who seem to be forever in the background without ever getting the headlines they deserve. They’ve had their moments, with Buck Rogers and Just The Way I’m Feeling both being singles which have scored them big hits, but generally, they are too ignored by the mainstream.
Which is a shame […]

Whatever happened to Dido? She was massive for a time after her first two albums, No Angel and Life For Rent were released, achieving worldwide success, even breaking America. But we haven’t seen anything of her since Life For Rent dropped in 2003.

Adele Vs Duffy - The Battle Of The British Divas | ‘Hometown Glory’ & ‘Stepping Stone’

I remember a time not so long ago when there was such a dearth of British female singers that Annie Lennox was almost guaranteed a Brit award every year. Now times have changed somewhat, and not only do we have Amy Winehouse doing her thing (drugs, booze, music, more drugs and booze), we have people […]

Stereophonics U.S. Tour To Promote ‘Pull The Pin’ - Re-Releasing Back Catalogue

Stereophonics have always been a favourite of mine, although the amount of love I have for them has varied with each album and change of personnel. They started off brilliantly with Word Gets Around and Performance and Cocktails, both classic albums full of hits straddling the rock and pop genres superbly.
Then came that dodgy period […]

Oasis’ New Album ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ Track Listing & Artwork - ‘Falling Down’ Leaked

I have a love and hate relationship with Oasis. I love the music, or the bulk of it at least, but hate some of the attitude that comes from the band, with Liam Gallagher being the particular pain in the arse. Although, having said that, he seems to have been very quiet and subdued of […]
