  • WHAT IS IT WITH K-POP AND FASCISM?

    These K-Pop bands are a massive, multi-million dollar business and on one hand, it’s great to see young pop fans getting into music that is spoken in something that isn’t English. However, there’s a big problem – what’s with all the Nazi stuff?! The most recent news concerns Chaeyoung who is a member of Twice.…

  • FLO TEAM UP WITH MISSY

    If you asked ‘Missy who?’ after reading that headline, then maybe this isn’t the website for you. Anyway, there’s been a lot of noise around FLO this past year, and Pop Justice’s Peter Robinson is a fan and genuinely, that’s something you should always take notice of. They won a BRIT Award, so they’re absolutely…

  • WE SUPPOSE WE’LL HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE OASIS REUNION

    Initially, this article was just going to be a video of a very tired, very angry baby. We bailed on the idea, because that one time someone reviewed a Jet LP with nothing more than a video of a chimp drinking it’s own piss was effectively the pinnacle of that kind of thing, and has…

  • WHY 12K TO BE GENE’S ASSISTANT?

    Given that we know how Gene Simmons dresses for his work, and what he does for a living, we’d be daft for wondering if he was an entirely serious man, or not. Well, he’s had a deal on for fans with some money to spend – and as anyone with even a vague interest in…

  • GODSPEED, WIZZ JONES

    He may not be a household name, but chances are, Wizz Jones is one of your favourite’s favourites. A legend of the Brit folk scene, sadly, Wizz has left the building, aged 86 years old. Named ‘Wizz’ by his mum – a nickname taken from The Beano character Wizzy the Wuz and given to him…

  • LETS GO THROUGH SHARON OSBORNE’S KNEECAP STATEMENT

    You’ve probably seen that Kneecap have found themselves on the wrong end of a tongue lashing from Sharon Osborne, what with their opposition to what’s happening currently with the people of Palestine. If we’re all meant to be free speech absolutists in 2025, then if someone screening ‘FREE PALESTINE’ on a big screen hurts your…
