Radiohead have received almost nothing but praise for challenging music industry standards when they released In Rainbows on to the Internet last year, and invited people to pay what they wanted for the privilege of downloading the album.
In effect, this meant you could nab a brand new album by one of the best British […]
Wow, this is huge. Bloc Party have revealed heir new single, and it is completely different than anything they have released before, and I’m not too sure whether I like the direction the band are going in.
It all started with a countdown timer on the official Bloc Party website, which suddenly appeared, and pointed towards […]
The Rock Band and Guitar Hero games have proved to be massively popular over the past couple of years, not only for the developers and publishers, but also for the artists featured in the games, who have seen a massive rise in publicity and record sales as a result.
When the first Guitar Hero game was […]
This time last week, Jay-Z was about to take to the main stage at Glastonbury to finally perform the gig which had caused a mass of hysterical controversy over the past few months.
In the run-up to the gig, I took a long, hard look at the controversy over the booking of Jay-Z as a […]

Justin Hawkins was for the space of about a year the hottest man in British rock. Not in looks you understand, as unfortunately for him he is one of the ugliest men to have ever been in a band, although Shane MacGowan from The Pogues does make it a close-run thing.
The Darkness were huge for […]
The Ting Tings seemed to come out of nowhere to become one of the hottest bands in the UK right now. They have even been noticed in the US after their song Shut Up And Let Me Go, which I recently reviewed on Killed By The Video Star, was featured on an Apple iPod advert.

Jay-Z finally took to the stage last night to fulfil his headline slot at the 2008 Glastonbury Festival. The gig was one of the most talked about of the year before it even happened, with many people feeling that Jay-Z and hip-hop weren’t right for a traditionally indie music festival.
