Single Reviews - Hoobastank - The Reason (Mercury) By Steve Rudd
|
|
It's been almost impossible to avoid this radio-friendly tune over the past few weeks, as it
has literally taken the world by storm. Over in the US it was the Number One airplay
record for five weeks, before basking in the glory of being the Number Three most
played track in

Album Reviews - Joesolo - An Exile In Suburbia By Nick Quantrill
|
|
History lesson - Lithium Joe were much more than graffiti on the Hull train
station wall. Whilst the majority of Hull bands are happy to settle for receiving meaningless
platitudes from their mates and being great in the local clubs,
Lithium Joe was different.

Khi (6-track Demo) By Steve Rudd
|
|
This quartet's high-octane How Would I Know anthem might thematically speak of all the time that
people tend to waste in life, during non-productive days that serve nobody and nothing.
To the contrary, this hugely exciting Hull band (that has been on the go for some years
now) most

Mansun - Slipping Away (EMI) By Steve Rudd
|
|
Brace yourselves, for this is the last-ever single release from those
loveable Chester-based boys. Sadly, they decided to call it a day whilst
recording their fourth, as-yet-unreleased album.
On the upside though, and to help die-hard fans get over the initial
loss, Mansun are

The Composers - Evacuate London (8-track demo) By Steve Rudd
|
|
Compose yourself, for the music on offer here from this East London-rooted band is most excellent.
Opening track Evacuate London is a jingle-jangling shot of down-to-earth,
lovelorn pop music of the highest caliber, with Dan Edelstyn leading the quintet

Ron Sexsmith - Retriever (Parlophone) By Steve Rudd
|
|
Ever since the early 90's, and the 1991 release of Grand Opera Lane, Ron
has been making sublime music - and has even had some of his songs covered
by the superstar likes of Rod Stewart and Elton John.
This 12-track album is a beautifully conceived affair, and a mixture of
upbeat

Single Reviews - The Departure - Be My Enemy (EMI) By Steve Rudd
|
|
Northampton dudes The Departure are dutifully setting the rock 'n' roll-loving nation
alight with their upbeat and hugely melodic brand of excellence.
Would you be my enemy? It's easier that way!, sings versatile vocalist David Jones,
as the band behind him

Album Reviews - Silence Kit - Pieonear By Michelle Dee
|
|
Imagine my surprise when I received a disc from Moscow to review.
It was attractively packaged with what I think may be a crude representation of a pangolin;
possibly a polar bear but I favour the pangolin idea, constructed from snow and ice.
The cover folds out to reveal

Sum 41 - We're All To Blame (Mercury) By Steve Rudd
|
|
After almost a year of keeping well away from the spotlight, these four Canadian boys
are back - and with a truly almighty bang.
Just because there hasn't been any Sum 41 releases for a while, though,
doesn't mean they've been living the easy life. In fact,

The Landaus - What Ya Cryin' For (3-tracks / Dagalost) By Steve Rudd
|
|
The Landaus, over the past year, have come to be rightfully regarded as one of the best rock 'n' roll bands in the Hull area.
This three-track single is arguably their most accomplished and impressive release so far,
fronted by the title track in What Ya Cryin For: a supremely

Kaiser Chiefs - I Predict a Riot (B-Unique) By Steve Rudd
|
|
There's no sense in beating around any bush: this Leeds five-piece is
one white-hot rock outfit - and it seems certain that these Yorkshire boys
are going to more than ingratiate themselves and their incredibly catchy
music to the masses in the coming few months.
The telltale
