WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Yungblud thinks sex will “save the world”, while also very much having a nose like a two-pin plug. The singer, who you look at and just want to poke a travel adapter in before you trying charging your phone up, insists that the “expression and freedom” of making sweet, sweet shags, is a sure fire
-
Rita Ora’s life seems exhausting, honestly. Like treading water, she has to keep the grind up possibly more than a lot of her peers, from which you can draw your own conclusions. Her work ethic is very strong, that much is clear, as she scrambles over the bones of pop and celebrity culture. Does anyone

It is incredibly easy to be mildly irritated by Taylor Swift, but no-one is forcing anyone to like or dislike her here, because we’re not really talking about her music or her personality here. This is something else. This is about records, and buying LPs is good. Her recent LP ‘Midnights’ – which we haven’t
-
‘Cult Survivor’ by Sofie was a really good album. Well, slightly redubbed as Sofie Royer and now in pierrot make-up, she’s at it again being great, with her ‘Harlequin’ LP. In 2022, it seems silly to start describing what she does when you can just click on the video below or indeed, give it a

Born in a Derbyshire village in 1941, little did the residents of the High Peak village know that a legend had been born. Vivienne Westwood left Tintwistle for the big smoke to attend art school, but she only lasted one term, because frankly, formal training wasn’t needed for what she was about to give the
-
We can’t imagine we’ll be featuring a huge amount of ice hockey on these pages, but then again, how many surprisingly good disco LPs are based around tips from a professional hockey player? Guy LaFleur died in 2022, and was a Canadian hockey legend, and he once released an LP where he gave training advice
-
90s hip hop fans can be very irritating indeed BUT we shouldn’t let gatekeeping Old Heads stop us enjoying the music right? Right. So with that, A Tribe Called Quest are great aren’t they? They never seem to be in the conversation when people are talking about Who Is Best, even when that conversation is
-
More new music which is great that we won’t talk about too much initially, because you can ignore us and just listen to it below. However, for enthusiasm and padding an article out’s sake, Nala Sinephro is fantastic. It’s part ambient, part jazz, all fantastic. It’ll make you feel like you’re in one of those
-
The price of things are going up, but wages aren’t. It’s a thing that always happens when anyone in any position of power naively believes in trickle down economics. The fact is – and we all know this – rich folk like hoarding their money or spending it on themselves. Add a host of other

NEW KALI UCHIS
In another life, we interviewed Kali Uchis before she was very famous, and honestly, she was incredibly pleasant and was especially mean about the girls from her school who liked Chris Brown. She was good value and then went off with her manager to Nando’s, where we worried that she might get a bad idea…

MUSICIANS THAT ARE SENDING PEOPLE TO SLEEP ZZZZZZ
We’re not sure it’s great news for a musician to be told that your work is sending people to sleep. Honestly, you’d rather here it’s caused raging impotence wouldn’t you? Unless you’re the Penguin Cafe Orchestra or something. Either way, this is the news that the likes of Billlie Eilish, BTS, and Khalid have woken…

SCIENCE, NOT YET GASLIT BY A MUSICIAN, SAYS BEING A MUSICIAN MAKES YOU MORE ATTRACTIVE
Science has vaguely been doing its thing again, crunching some numbers and then spewing out some kind of finding. These findings we’re talking about here are by no means definitive, but we’ll talk about them anyway, because it’s funny to so. Apparently, according to boffins, being a musician makes you more attractive to possible suitors.…

KELELA IS BACK, BEING GREAT
Whether you think of her music as experimental electronica, or future R&B, we can all agree that Kelela is fantastic. And she’s back with a new single called ‘Contact’. She’ll be releasing a new LP called ‘RAVEN’ which is bound to be fantastic on Feb 10th. New album ‘RAVEN’ is out on February 10th. And…
