WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • WHICH BAND DOES KEANU LOVE?

    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…

  • APRIL FOOL’S DAY

    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.

  • BLUE LIGHTS FROM JAYDA G NOT TO BE MISSED

    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…

  • FRIPP & TOYAH HEAVILY FEATURING BREASTS, FOR THE CAUSE

    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…

  • PSYCHEDELIC TWANGS WITH IMMATERIAL POSSESSION

    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 BUSS ME A SCRIPT

    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…

  • LETS TALK ABOUT HOW ED SHEERAN DOESN’T SEE THE POINT IN MUSIC CRITICS

    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…

  • V V BROWN BACK AND BLACK BRITISH

    Granted, that seems like an incredibly Brexity headline, but V V Brown is back with a new track called ‘Black British’, so we’re not being massive gammons. You may remember V V’s rootsy pop from the Noughties, but it’s 2023, and she’s got something she wants to say. And this is potent stuff, where she…

  • NEW GIRLS ALOUD MUSIC

    There’s going to be new music from Girls Aloud (if you’re pretending you don’t like them, you can stop now – it’s not cute) and that’s been confirmed by the achingly tremendous Kimberley Walsh. This is to mark the 20th anniversary of their debut LP ‘Sound Of The Underground’. The girls have been moderately active…

  • EUROVISION ON THE CINEMA SCREEN

    Great news if you want to sit with a load of other people and watch the Eurovision Song Contest at high volume – it’s going to be broadcast in British cinemas for the first time ever. Of course, everyone was trying to get tickets for the show in Liverpool and the whole thing sold out…

  • MODERN NATURE, BACK.

    Jack Cooper’s Modern Nature are back with a new track from forthcoming LP ‘No Fixed Point In Space’ called ‘Cascade’ and features Julie Tippets. It’s a bruised, psychedelic-ish folk-jazzy post-rock number, which granted, is a lot of words, but if you’ve heard Modern Nature before, you’ll know it’s a kaleidoscope of influences and good shit.…

  • TOM TOM CLUB BEING AMAZING

    We can’t lie to you – initially, we were meant to cover a lot more music from the past on these pages, revisiting lost classics and reappraising hidden treasures and all that. We accidentally became transfixed with new releases, which is kinda good seeing as new bands need the press while they’re still around. Anyway,…

  • PORTABLE RADIO FEEL LIKE A DOG

    Selena Gomez has announced a return to music. Miley Cyrus has confirmed a new song. There’s new Guns N Roses music. However, the entire world is talking about the new single from Portable Radio. Portable Radio – perhaps the greatest band in the entire world right now, not that anyone’s noticed – have a new…

  • STEPHEN STEINBRINK NEWIE IS A GOODIE

    Stephen Steinbrink, who we hadn’t heard of until we pressed play on the below video, has a cool new song out. Let’s tell you some stuff first though, so you get the illusion of value for money, even though we’re doing this for free. There’s going to be a new album called ‘Disappearing Coin’ and…
