Noel Gallagher - AKA... What a Life - Music Video

Previously known as the song from the Vauxhall advert, we now get to listen to the new Noel Gallagher track without having to put up with seeing those England footballers. This video featuring Russell Brand, was filmed in California, Arizona, and New Mexico, and is sure to generate interest prior to the release of his debut solo album High Flying Birds, which is due out on the 17th of October in the UK, and November 8th in North America. Be warned though – this is more like a short film than a music video – but is well worth hanging Read More – Watch Music Video

Mastodon – Black Tongue

Mastodon - Black Tongue

Mastodon’s new album The Hunter is released this week, which seems like a good excuse to feature as our track of the week, the single released earlier in the year – “Black Tongue”. Apparently this album isn’t a concept album, and the resultant freedom of subject matter is reflected in the music, which seems more flowing than on previous Mastodon albums. Either that or they listened to Blue Record by fellow Georgians, Baroness, and thought that they’d have stab at making an album as good as that. Anyway, this isn’t an album review. Maybe we’ll do one at a later Read More – Watch Music Video

Nirvana - In Bloom - (Nevermind the 20th Anniversary)

Everyone’s talking about the 20th anniversary of Nirvana’s Nevermind album, so why can’t we? It was released on 24th September 1991 don’t you know, and for some reason the 20th anniversary is more special than the 19th, so this particular passing of time is being celebrated by everyone because they like nice round numbers on which to celebrate events. We’ve chosen the song which was released as the fourth single from the album, a track entitled “In Bloom”, as our song of the week. Chosen because the video is fairly humorous and seems to fit in with the hype surrounding Read More – Watch Music Video

Track of the Week – Young Knives – Vision in Rags

Track of the Week - Young Knives - Vision in Rags

The Young Knives have been in and out of the fray since their moderately successfully first album proper, Voices of Animals and Men, and a follow up in the shape of 2008′s Superabundance, which was met with mixed reviews and unfortunately most people believed the worst ones. This meant that their third album entitled Ornaments from the Silver Arcade, wasn’t really one of those three years in the making albums that fans are constantly checking the internet music places for updates on.  Which is a shame. This week we look at their excellent new single “Vision in Rags” taken from their aforementioned latest album, and it’s typical dryly humorous promotional Read More – Watch Music Video

Emeli Sande - Heaven - Music Video

Single of the week reviewed by Paul Darlington. Now have I got a stonker for you! Just when people were about to give up on the charts and who could blame them after ‘Swagger Jagger’, I feel dirty even saying it, boom! My confidence is back that good music can actually be found in the charts. Emeli Sande 23 from Aberdeenshire in Scotland has been floating around for a while making cameo appearances on other artists tracks such as on UK rapper Chipmunk’s debut single “Diamond Rings” as well as featuring on other urban artists work, including Roll Deep and Read More – Watch Music Video
