  • REVIEW / HILARY DUFF / LUCK… OR SOMETHING?

    Fun, wholesome albums are hard to get behind a lot of the time, because they can sound insincere and wishy-washy in an environment where pop is required to be overtly sexy or have some kind of grievance. However, with Hilary Duff’s new album, she’s super easy to root for. She’s embraced the memes, she’s nostalgia…

    In 1984, legendary alternative pop show The Tube decided to go to Berlin to see what was happening. The Cold War was looming large and the hipsters were out en masse – some of them dressing up like the Gestapo and vicars, as well as the classic Goth Punk looks of the time. Muriel Gray…

  • EUROVISION PLAYLIST 4U

    If you want to listen to a load of Eurovision songs from all decades, then have we got a playlist for you!

  • COUNTRY ROCK 70s GOODNESS FROM PETAL

    Songs your dad loved are back in vogue thanks to a load of younger, possibly traumatised kids looking toward a simpler time of the ’70s or, at least, road trip radio stations, which sees younger artists wading into the comfort and flared jeans. With that, we tripped over a new song by Petal called ‘You…

  • RIP POP ART PUNK, FRANK KOZIK
