Single Reviews - Hal - Play The Hits (Rough Trade) By Steve Rudd
	Following up their chirpy What A Lovely Dance hit, Play The Hits' is quite frankly a fabulous tune from this refreshing Irish four-piece. These fellows go all out to hit upon classic melodies and harmonies that burrow their way into the hearts and minds of their listeners - and that Brian Wilson would die for. This song has been written by band front man David Allen Read more...

Music, Album Reviews - Oasis: Don't Believe The Truth By Nick Boldock
	There was a time when it would sound faintly ridiculous to suggest that Oasis would ever again record a great album. Their last effort - 2002's Heathen Chemistry - suggested a renaissance, and despite mediocre media interest did contain some brilliance, most notably the Noel-sung numbers Little By Little and Force Of Nature. Certainly it was a sign of Read more...

	Well, there's nothing quite like being positive - even if they're Hood and they're playing The Negatives.

Single Reviews - Wherewithal - Sixth Form Poetry (Foolproof) By Steve Rudd
	This fem-fronted quintet sure isn't taking any prisoners, ballsily bursting out of the Farnborough area with gusto. Stacy Hart is the singer, and what a singer she is.

	American Country-rocker Ryan is back on the scene, and is being backed by a new band of friends called The Cardinals.

Single Reviews - Razorlight - Somewhere Else (Vertigo) By Steve Rudd
	Face it - Razorlight front man Johnny Borrell is a total star in his own right, even without the other three lads that make up this tantalisingly talented band... especially when he's armed and potentially infamous with his trusted acoustic guitar. Still, the full band sound is hard to beat, and this tune Read more...
