WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
The latest FREE RANGE show is up and this one is a little chaotic with loads of killer music on it from all over the world. This one has a guest presenter on it which is real fun. You can listen to it below and the tracklist is a little bit below that. FREE RANGE…

Cosmic country pop? Like Gram Parsons but with a will to actually sell some records? Big claim that, but fuck it, let’s go with it. We’re talking about Jenny Lewis, who is a bit of a legend in certain circles, and who has a most excellent wardrobe (stop pretending that this isn’t a thing that…
-
It’s funny that ageing rockers bemoan the thin-skins of the yoof, while acting like petulant babies all the time, throwing their toys out of the pram and indulging in very ugly, public, hilarious spats. Just look at Pink Floyd. A very dignified set of old men there. With that, we turn our attentions to KISS.…

Keanu Reeves is everyone’s non-problematic fave and generally seems like a good dude. Great face too, if we’re still objectifying people in 2023. You can imagine he’s got a half decent and very sizeable record collection, right? His house is probably dead nice. And we’re only mentioning Wyld Stallyns now to say that we won’t…

We’re not bothering with anything like here, don’t worry. Everything you read today is just a normal story. However, that said, now we’ve drawn attention to it you might think we’ve completely made up our imminent Keanu Reeves piece up, when we haven’t. He’s just that nice.

She’s a DJ, she’s a producer – Jayda G is bring good and hypnotic vibes to make your feet move around wildly and, luckily enough, there’s a new tune out called ‘Blue Lights’ which is really good. There’s a new LP due too, called ‘Guy’, and that’ll be on Ninja Tune, which is a name…

It’s difficult trying to avoid being cancelled when someone keeps getting their breasts out and we, responsible music critics must pretend we haven’t seen the aforementioned breasts. Even if we have noticed the breasts, then we must underline how people should be able to free their breasts for whatever reason they like, because the people…

If you’ve not heard of Immaterial Possession, they’re an odd bunch. That’s a good thing, before you start any of that nonsense. They’ve got a new tune out called ‘Mercy of the Crane Folk’. What’s that about you ask? Well, it’s a song that is apparently a tale about a needy ghost that never gets…

03 Greedo has served 5 years in prison and is out on parole and, out of the gate, he’s not messing around. He’s got a new track out called ‘Buss Me A Script’ which features Maxo Kream and it is haaaaaaaarrrrrrrd. There’s a new LP in offing too (might be a mixtape, might not be…

Ed Sheeran has said that he doesn’t see the point in music critics. You might think that this is going to provoke some kind of butt-hurt response from us, given that this is a place for music criticism. Well, largely, there’s a point to this notion, given that people have Spotify and YouTube now, so…

ACID HOUSE AS IT HAPPENED
We’ve spotted a great book that you’ll want or will start dropping heavy hints in the run-up to Christmas – it’s called ‘Acid House As It Happened’ and its a beautiful document of the boom of rave that happened in the late ’80s. By Dave Swindells, it’s filled with photos from Future and Shoom taken…

NEW CURE EH?
Fans of The Cure probably already heard this, but whatever. They’ve been teasing something new for a couple of weeks and now, there’s a new song to listen to and news of an album. The LP will be called ‘Songs of a Lost World’ and you imagine there’ll be a tour to go with it.…

KAITLYN AURELIA SMITH + HOT CHIP? NICE
Composer Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith has teamed up with the ever loveable Joe Goddard from Hot Chip and good things are happening. It is taking the form of a new EP called ‘Neptunes’ which will be out in November. As ever, we’ve got something for you to listen to so you’re not just sat there wondering…

THE UNTOLD STORY OF SCOTS GIRL BANDS

Of course, Scotland has had loads of great groups and many of them sorely…
