Editors - The Weight Of Your Love
The first Editors album since the departure of lead guitarist Chris Urbanowicz is, with all due respect, none the worse for his leaving.
Reviews / Album
Sleeping With Sirens - Feel
The songs on Feel that are good are very good. It’s just a pity that the bad aspects of some of the tracks are just too bad to ignore.
Reviews / Album
Lou Doillon - Places
Places is an impressive debut
Reviews / Album
Ghostpoet - Some Say I So I Say Light
This is an intimate album and a mighty fine one at that.

Spencer P Jones & The Escape Committee, Shifting Sands, Alex & The Shy Lashlies
The fact that Shifting Sands are so stripped back certainly helps make The Escape Committee sound even fuller than normal. Throughout their hour-and-a-half long set, Jones shows why he is such an important figure in Australian Music.

Spencer P. Jones & The Escape Committee, Shifting Sands, Alex And The Shy Lashlies
Just as you wonder if the tone may improve, the next song is introduced as “a song about surfing and stabbing to death the performer Jack Johnson in an alleyway in Surfers Paradise.”
Reviews / Album
Beady Eye - Be
The songwriting skills of Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell and Gem Archer are undeniable as there is not one track that doesn’t belong on this record.
Reviews / Live
Super Wild Horses, The Living Eyes, The Clits
We’re invited at one point by Franz to sing happy birthday to McKee, who, we’re told, is turning “an unnamed age.” The only downside tonight is that their set is so short.

They Might Be Giants, Dark Fair
Despite a running time of almost two hours, tonight’s show finishes far too quickly. We can only hope they don’t wait another 12 years to return.

Jenny Biddle - Hero In Me
Biddle’s voice has a soothing quality to it and wraps itself around you like a warm blanket.

The Delta Riggs - Hex.Lover.Killer
The Delta Riggs have shown that they don’t care what you think – they’re just here to give the music world a shot in the arm with a no-holds-barred mix of rock, retro glamour and a hell of a lot of life.
Reviews / Live
The Tiger & Me, The Twoks, Texture Like Sun
The best sort of gigs are ones where you can tell that the band is having as much fun as the audience, and this is definitely the case tonight. It’s hard for anybody not to be won over by the band’s charm.
