Skibunny- Walk Don’t Walk EP
If there’s anyone who should know what makes dancefloor friendly music, it’s the Belfast/Edinburgh duo of Skibunny. After DJing Belfast’s premier indie alternative night for years, these guys know what makes a catchy hook and a killer chorus. It’s a shame then that as the guys have decided to put...
Crystal Castles – (II)
If you had goaded me into a conversation about Crystal Castles two months ago, it would have been hard for me to muster up much conviction on any opinion. If asked then, what two words would I use to describe the band, I would have answered with a hearty: Extremely...
LCD Soundsystem – This Is Happening
“Everybody’s getting younger It’s the end of an era, it’s true.”- LCD Soundsystem-“Dance Yrself Clean” Much ado has been made about the fact that this is reportedly, LCD Soundsystem’s final album.

The Flaming Lips – The Dark Side Of The Moon

A lot of music tends to sound the same these days. Even if you happen to stumble upon something that stumps you for a moment or two, you’ll usually be able to quickly identify a pattern. The band with three guitarists. The band that does harmonies. The acoustic guitar guy....
Gorillaz – Plastic Beach
Damon Albarn, front man and co-creator of the Gorillaz, has been a very busy man of late. Even though a Gorillaz album has not been released since Demon Days, in late May of 2005, Albarn has been in constant creative motion. Rare live shows, the Grammy Awards with Madonna, a...
Two Door Cinema Club – Tourist History
Not since Snow Patrol has a Northern Irish band’s chances of mainstream success seemed so certain. Two Door Cinema Club, an indie pop band from Bangor, have, to their credit, always been doing things their way. Faced with the common problem when starting a band of finding a drummer, they...
Hot Chip – One Life Stand
It has always seemed to me that Hot Chip are a band that are often overlooked. Their first album “Coming On Strong”, whilst hinting at catchy pop sensibilities served mainly to create an impression of nerdy music geeks making bedroom electro. It was 2006’s “The Warning” that remains the album...
