Music Reviews - Kill Surf City By Michelle Dee
	The fresh five-piece from Hull have fast become the band name to drop in any discerning musos discourse. Recent months has seen them leapfrogging the opposition and quickly reaching and surpassing a few significant milestones. The band had barely been together two months when they headlined at the Sesh (see review thisisull.com ) Linnet and Lark. This was quickly followed by more Read more...

Music Reviews - Night Clubs - Friday 2nd December - Regis at Pure Techno at Rhythm Room By Michelle Dee
	Friday night in the icy rain I flagged down a cab to town. My preferred late night spot tonight was Rhythm Room on Baker Street for a heady night of uplifting beats. Someone once enquired, What is this rude, lewd, lascivious junk called techno? What, indeed. One way of describing it is like a sonic sunburst Read more...

Music Reviews - 13th October 05 - thisisUll.com Keeping It Peel at The Silhouette By Joe Hakim Photographs by Darren Rogers and Mo
	Whenever a musical icon dies, there always follows a period where their name and image is turned into a commodity. The best current example would be John Lennon. The celebration of what would have been his sixty-fifth birthday and the impending twentieth anniversary of his death has sent the record companies and the various conglomerates that Read more...

Music Reviews - Scarborough Beached Festival 2005 Sunday By Michelle Dee Photos by Roland Standaert and Michelle Dee
	Sand beneath my feet, sounds of activity on the stage, blue skies overhead, sun blazing: a strange but rather pleasant surrounding for a gig. Amaya Huntly and Jon Neeves had the unenviable task to open the show on Sunday. An acoustician and Keyboard duo; the highlight of their set was the Credence Clearwater Revival cover where they proved with a strong number they can do a Read more...

Music Reviews - Friday 25th November 05 - Franz Ferdinand at Hull Ice Arena By Michelle Dee
	Last night probably the biggest name in recent Indie music touched down in Hull as part of their Europe-wide tour. A tour, which, will see them play thirty-seven dates in sixteen different countries. The tickets were sold out almost as soon as they came on sale, so we knew we were in for a packed gig with plenty of people and a great atmosphere. The Glaswegian multi-award winners sure know Read more...

Music Reviews - Friday 4th November 05 - Shinobi featuring Grooverider and MC AOB at The Welly By Michelle Dee - 3 Page Photo Gallery.
	Drum n bass creeps up from your feet to your fingaz and puts a smile on everyone's face... I am aware of the genre drum n bass or d n b as it is commonly referred. A good few years ago I stayed by my radio all night to tape the Bristol pioneer Roni Size playing live on air. I watched with interest a docu-road movie on LTJ Bukem and the antics of MC Conrad. The show ended up with the Read more...

Music Reviews - Sunday 6th November - Staks Battle of the Bands 05 By Michelle Dee
	On Sunday 6th of November the popular cafè bar cum restaurant on Beverley Road held the final of the Battle of the Bands competition. This event is not to be confused with Band Wars organised by the staff at the Polar Bear on Springbank. The bands that had successfully made it to the final were Hollywood, Minus 272 and the Vels. Regular readers of this site will Read more...

Music Reviews - Saturday 8th October 05 - The Mardous and 59 Violets at Yo-Yo By David Thurlby Photos By Michelle Dee
	The Yo-Yo night at The Welly Club on Beverley Road is slap bang in the middle of its most hectic period what with all the students back in place and the host of bands that are lined up to play it's Live Lab. Tonight saw a band from just across the bridge share a small and compact stage with some up and coming chancers from down south. Barton's own 59 Violets Read more...

Music Reviews - 14th August 05 - Frank's Right Hand Trouser, Shindigg, Sal Paradise and The Vultures at the Adelphi By Anthony Baine.
	So, another week, another gig. This time it's the Paul Jackson's gaff for some of Hull's top local fare. Sundays are usually quite hit and miss in the summer months while there are no students about and this on this occasion I took a seat in a half-full Adelphi just in time to witness four bands strut their stuff. First up were The Vultures. Hull's music scene at the moment consists mainly of Read more...

Music Reviews - The Leeds Festival Diary - 25th to 28th August 05 By Andy Knudsen Photos by Em Alexander, Steve Clappison at (www.tallorders.org) and Sam Saunders
	In the same inexplicable way that you sometimes wake up a second or two before the alarm goes off, I wake up just before the door to the room I'm sleeping in opens. Dave bends his blonde head round the door. "Helloo" he sings and advances into the room wearing a face like the Cheshire Cat. I muster some kind of greeting and check my watch for the time.

Music Reviews - Night Clubs - 26th August 05 - Eat Your Words at The Welly By Diane
	What a night to remember! If you enjoy continuous dance music then get yourself down to Eat Your Words at the Welly Club on Beverley Road and dance the night away like I did. Very friendly staff as I entered the building. Somewhere to drop your bag and coat and helpful staff at the bar if you're like me and can never decide what you want to drink! A kind lass behind the bar offered Read more...

Music Reviews - Saturday 13th August 05 - Arctic Monkeys at The Silhouette by Nick Quantrill Photo Gallery by Darren Rogers
	Supported by The Applewhites, Sheffield's Arctic Monkeys rolled into Hull as the current NME-approved future of music, and for once they might just be correct. Despite having released just one single, the band has already toured extensively to build a formidable word of mouth fan-base, and they look equipped to explode into the musical mainstream.

Music Reviews - 13th September 05 - Kill Surf City at the Sesh By Michelle Dee
	Kill Surf City is generating a fresh wave on the Hull scene. Just a few months ago no-one had heard of this mixed (boy/girl) five-piece. I first saw them 17 August supporting the Applewhites at Ringside. That day I sat down pretty pissed off about things in general and life in particular, I happened to see a vaguely familiar face aside the stage. I recalled some weeks earlier, a conversation Read more...

Music Reviews - Friday 29th July 05 - Park and Ride, The Landaus and The Truth at KU Bar Stockton By Michelle Dee
	At half past three on a balmy Friday afternoon I clambered into the back of a hire van to make the journey to Stockton. Once inside, I was greeted by Hull's flagship band The Landaus, who were playing on the same bill, and a few fans of both bands including the much-loved Haribo and original party monster Dean Shakespeare. Danny Landau appears to have found the best seat Read more...

Music Reviews - Sunday 31st July 06 - Benefit Gig at Staks Bar By Joe Hakim Photos By Roland Standaert
	It's an early start, three in the afternoon, but it's for a good cause. Sundays, and the weekend in general, tend to be meaningless when you're unemployed, yet you always feel obligated to spend as much time in bed and do as little as possible in between bouts of napping. A lot of this is due to the fact that there's fuck all on TV on a Sunday. There's hardly anything good on TV during Read more...

Music Reviews - Monday 25th July - Hayseed Dixie at The Cockpit, Leeds By Joe Malarky Whole lotta Dixie
	I discovered Hayseed Dixie whilst searching for a version of Duelling Banjos in my local record shop. I won't go into why I was searching for the main tune from Deliverance, that's my business and anyway it's not important. What does matter is that I was intrigued by the Tennessee quartet. I did a little research and found that their beliefs are simple. All good songs Read more...
