You might recognise the name. Former Boo Radley and BraveCaptain Martin Carr has never really stopped writing brilliant songs, its just that now he’s doing it under his own name. He’s releasing a new single, The Santa Fe Skyway on September 1st, ahead of a new album The Breaks, which follows on September 29th, both …

Announcing their arrival on stage with a short and punchy blast of ‘Peter Gunn’, it was clear from the off that Terminal Gods were here to blow the joint apart, and attempt to leave a lasting impression on the gathering before them. Just in case anyone had any doubt as to where they were going …

It’s maybe not the most obvious of places but Richmond in North Yorkshire is home to underground hip-hop collective Ceiling Demons, aka Psy Ceiling, Dan Demon and Beat Demon. Out last month was the Tom Robinson supported Amputated Spirit, backed by a previously unreleased b-side For The Love feat. Acts. Amputated State lays down this …

Mark Lanegan is inarguably an indie rock institution, having released over 50 albums during his lifetime either solo, through collaborations (such as his work with former Belle and Sebastian member Isobel Campbell) or via his first major band, Screaming Trees.

There seems to be a very healthy Italian psych scene at the moment and, like in the late 60s and early 70s, there seems to be quite a range of bands out there. These include In Zaire and The Diaphanoids, both of whom I wrote about recently, and The Vickers: also Backseat Mafia favourites. These …

I’ll start off by saying I’m not the diehard fan of this garage rock revival that so many others are. I recognize the greatness guys like Ty Segall, John Dwyer, and White Fence’s Tim Presley possess. Their musical output is quite staggering, and to the newbie it can be rather intimidating. Much like someone walking …

I didn’t start listening to Corrosion of Conformity till 1994. It was the next phase in their sound. Before the album Deliverance they were a hardcore punk band. They had street cred and lots of hardcore punk fans. But Deliverance saw the band head in more of a dirge-filled, Sabbath-oozing direction. Pepper Keenan as lead vocalist the band embarked …
