I've been downloading a sik amount of podcasts lately, and it's resulted in my 15GB iPod being filled up within a few days. twisted. probably the hottest podcast around is Filthy Few. always on the latest and greatest, it brings you tracks by some of the best new bands and artists around. I've fallen in love with the Toxic Avenger remix of a SEIK track at the start of podcast number 14. I just can't wait to get my hands and ears all over it properly. I might even take it to bed with me. kinky.
the lovely High Voltage sent me some promos to review, and I did just that. however, the only track that really stood out for me was by Micky P And The Dudes. he's a chap from Leeds and is well worth checking out. I described the particular track I was to review as sounding like "as if someone has broken the hearts of The Pigeon Detectives and given them acoustic guitars and a poetry book".Susan May
the other day I made a mixtape for a friend of mine who lives in America. I so happened to title this mixtape "Why
British Music Is Better Than American Music". not that it's a competition or anything..featured on the CD is the lovely Popular Workshop. the tracks on their new EP sound a little VEGC-esque. not that I'm complaining, I adore VEGC. if you've ever seen Pop. 'Shop live you will know that the dirty rhythms and piercing guitars are present in full force at all times with this band. they are a marvel to watch, even if you and the headlining band at the gig are the only ones doing so. I'm not sure that they have a sound that will make the majority go "ooooh" but they certainly push my buttons.
