Single Reviews - The Holloways - Generator (Sensible Recordings) By Nick Quantrill
	Hailing from the Holloway Road area of London, this limited edition, vinyl-only debut release is a prime slice of ska-tinged pop from a band destined to be one to watch out for in 2006. Lead track Generator is a three-minute snapshot of what the band have to offer. With its prominent harmonies and choppy guitars, Generator is something approaching a 21st Century take on Read more...

Album Reviews - Ellenby - Run Away EP (Levelsound) By Steve Rudd
	Ellenby are an exciting London-anchored duo, producing an intoxicating blend of Folk, Pop and Rock. Their debut album is forthcoming, and provisionally titled All You Need To Know. This four-track EP, however, is titled Runaway, which is also the name of the first track that proves to be the perfect introduction to the music of Ellenby. Liz Young is the singer, while multi-instrumentalist Read more...

Album Reviews - Jethro Tull - Aqualung Live (RandM) By Steve Rudd
	Over thirty years on from the release of Jethro Tull's classic Aqualung album, Aqualung Live is an amazing album in its own right, that captures a live performance of all the songs that featured on the original masterpiece. Only legendary band front man, Ian Anderson and ace guitarist Martin Barre remain from the original band line-up, but the Read more...

Music News - The Sesh Column - DJ Mak's Festive Rant
	Time to reflect. 2005 has to go down as a great year in my book. I've thoroughly enjoyed my work at various events across the city. Everyone has seemed up for it. Positivity has reigned supreme. Talent has emerged from all quarters. The creative folk of the city have been stimulated and encouraged, and the good people of Hull have got together and finally made things Read more...

Single Reviews - Coldplay - Talk (Parlophone) Reviewed by Steve Rudd
	First there was Speed Of Sound. Then these guys returned to literally haunt us and to Fix You. Now all Coldplay wanna do is Talk. And if they want to talk, the masses will sure as hell listen. This is the third single to have thus far been swiped from their stupendously successful X & Y album, and - as always - it is an anthem dominated by both frontman Chris Martin Read more...

Album Reviews - The Raindogs - The Adventures Of The Raindogs (Three Track Demo) By Steve Rudd
	Hull-based quartet The Raindogs are understandably turning ears in their direction with their uniquely spirited brand of indie-fied rock 'n' roll, that magically manages to be damn catchy come the choruses of all these three songs. Stop Smiling is up first, and straight away band front man Martin Clappison stuns the senses with his extraordinary voice: a voice that is Read more...

Single Reviews - Silversun - Immediate (Invisible Hands) Reviewed by Steve Rudd
	God, no! The 'Sun front man in James Broad was recently injured whilst making the accompanying video to Immediate... or so it has been alleged, when Mr. Broad thought that he was James Bond for a while and went hell for leather to emulate some of the secret agent's stunning stunts for the aforementioned video. Long story short, he injured himself. Details are Read more...

Single Reviews - Patrolman Pete - Ready To Roll (MX3) Reviewed by Steve Rudd
	Bob the Builder has effectively already been here and done this, but this twee novelty single release still has its wide-eyed and wholly innocent charms, and - at the time of writing - seems destined to scale the charts in leaps and bounds, with the odds on it being 2005's Christmas Number One literally increasing day by day. The AA-affiliated, two and a half minute song Read more...

Single Reviews - Athlete - Twenty Four Hours (Parlophone) Reviewed by Steve Rudd
	Ever since these four guys released their Vehicles And Animals album, they've been an exciting band to watch, but since the release of their more recent Tourist long-player, this quartet has rightfully became very well known indeed. This stunning single release follows on from their hugely popular Wires and Half Light singles, with this mid-paced anthem in Read more...

Album Reviews - The Peasants - Champagne Lifestyle On A Lemonade Budget (Our True Records) By Steve Rudd
	Whatever you do, don't you dare judge this CD by its cover, that shows the two young guys who make up this musically gifted duo - Jody McKenna and Dave Saxby. They both look like mean-spirited rockers, and both were brought up on the biggest council estate in Britain - Hull's Bransholme estate. Yet, the style of music that these two make together is in fact sweet harmony. Read more...

Album Reviews - Paparazzi Whore - I'd Rather Be Infamous Than Famous (DV8 Productions) Reviewed By Steve Rudd
	There aren't many bands around that allow their sound to be dominated by a bass-driven whirlwind of noise. Paparazzi Whore are something of a unique band, in that there is no lead guitar melody in the mix, but just bass guitar and rhythm guitar... both played by Chris Oaten, who is one of the four talented band members. Fronted by the feisty Micci Oaten (who also plays Read more...

Album Reviews - Four Square - Industry At Home (Bad Taste) By Steve Rudd
	A truly magnificent album from start to finish, first impressions don't last as the beautifully chilled-out 'Intro' (that combines piano, vocals and a lilting string arrangement to subtly rousing effect) couldn't be any more different from the brand of rock that swiftly follows with a bang. Ah yes. Please Don't Go immediately hears the band Read more...

Single Reviews - The Waking Eyes - Watch Your Money (Coalition) Reviewed by Steve Rudd
	Wise words indeed from this thrilling Canadian band; a band that has bust out of Winnipeg with one hell of a mission - and that mission is to rock hard! And loud!! A ball-breaking rock 'n' roll riff dominates this smile-inducing anthem, as this quartet indulges in a similar upbeat exuberance to bands like The Black Velvets and Jet, lightly stained by the wicked fun of The Hives. Watch Your Money might Read more...

Album/CD Reviews - March - Turn (Fortunate Son Records) Reviewed By Nick Quantrill
	Out of print until now, this low-profile side project from Jeff Caudill and Michael Baines was originally released in 1995. Conceived as a temporary respite for Caudill from the pop-punk of his band Gameface, this record allowed him to create a roots record that signposted the way forward for his future endeavours. Following the eventual demise of Gameface in 2003 Read more...

Album Reviews - Torso Horse - The Creation Part 1 (DVD) By Steve Rudd
	With four classic Goth-Metal music videos at this DVD release's core, The Creation features the full-blooded intensity of the Torso Horse swan-songs in In Your Head, Dragging Me Down, The Angel You'll Never Be and Let It Out - the latter video having been shot in an exhilarating live setting, showing off the extent to which 'Horse fans get riled up at their hot Read more...
