‘The Fool‘ was released by LA rock band Warpaint at the end of 2010. It was released 2 years after the LP that brought them to attention, ‘Exquisite Corpse‘ came out.

Run The Jewels-Dublin 30.03.17
Run The Jewels ran the show on Thursday the 30th of March. When they announced a European Tour I made it my number 1 gig priority to see them. €46 was the damage but if it was €46,666,666 I still would have paid it. Well, maybe not, but you get my point. I REALLY wantedContinue reading “Run The Jewels-Dublin 30.03.17”

Earl Sweatshirt-Doris
Yep, I’m that white guy, the same as those in Instagram videos with people dancing around to Future’s ‘Mask Off’. I’m listening to some of Americas newest and roughest rappers in the likes of Vince Staples, A$AP Rocky and here, Earl Sweatshirt, not because I can relate to it but because it sounds so GodContinue reading “Earl Sweatshirt-Doris”

Tom Waits-Closing Time
This is going to be a hard one. Or very easy..this is one of my favourite albums of all time so I’m either going to wander into how much I love it or get mumbled along the way. Tom Waits debut ‘Closing Time’ is one of those perfectly aged yet never old albums aboutContinue reading “Tom Waits-Closing Time”
