  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Album review by Angela Madden   Yes, it is the same Russell Morris you are thinking of; him of the 1960s ‘The Real Thing’ fame and success. The 64 year old musician has a new-ish recording out, ‘Sharkmouth’ and this marks his first ever top 10 album – some 44 years after Morris […]

  A Scene to Watch Closely Album review by Angela Madden   This girl is one to watch. Closely. And I’m not the only one who thinks so. Melody Pool’s debut album The Hurting Scene made it into Rolling Stone Magazine’s top 50 albums of the year for 2013, which is an extraordinary outcome for […]

These guys formed in high-school back in 2009, aged around 14yo, and, amazingly, the core 5 members of the group have stayed constant since that time. […]

  Beards prove a hair-raisingly good formula Album review by Angela Madden    You probably won’t believe me, but Novelty-Hair-Rockers ‘The Beards’ have just released their fourth album all about beards.
