This was one of the first albums I loved and played over and over. I was the perfect age for it,16, and at the beginning of so many of the stories the Arctic Monkeys tell in this album. So, I related to that but also to the music. The Kooks sang about much the sameContinue reading “Arctic Monkeys- Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not”

Editors-The Back Room
‘The Back Room‘ is the debut album by English post-punk/rock band Editors. It was actually the second Editors album I bought because I only heard of them when ‘An End Has A Start‘ came out. I actually prefer this one to their second effort as it was a little more dark and and also slightlyContinue reading “Editors-The Back Room”
El Vy- Return To The Moon
When I heard about Matt Berninger and Brent Knopf’s new project El Vy, I couldn’t wait to hear what they would deliver. It was only when I heard about the project that I discovered Menomena, and their sound mixed with Berninger’s voice had the potential to be something special. I also knew it was probablyContinue reading “El Vy- Return To The Moon”
Track Of The Week-El Vy- No Time To Crank The Sun
I love El Vy. Their album ‘Return To The Moon is one of the best albums of 2015 and has so many stand out tracks. My track of the day is a beaut, No Time To Crank The Sun is one I have on repeat on a regular basis. Have a listen because if youContinue reading “Track Of The Week-El Vy- No Time To Crank The Sun”
Teen Men-Teen Men

They were supporting Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and to be honest, they were ten times better than the headliners. They had a quirky Vampire Weekend feel to them, with every song being oneContinue reading “Teen Men-Teen Men”
The Antlers: Hospice
Hospice is the 3rd album released by The Antlers. It came out in 2009, and I think I bought it sometime in early 2010 because it was pretty new. I found The Antlers on The Last Broadcast, as I have with many more bands I follow. I didn’t know much about them as a whole,Continue reading “The Antlers: Hospice”
Interpol: Turn On The Bright Lights
Before I get into the review, I have to say that this is my favourite album of all time, but I won’t let that dictate my review. Released in 2002, the album didn’t exactly blow up. It was more successful in the UK than the United States, though it did well on the Independent Charts.Continue reading “Interpol: Turn On The Bright Lights”
