The Residents

The Residents Live At St. George’s Church

Wed Feb 27 2019

The Residents gave a stunning performance at St. George’s Church in Kemp Town, Brighton earlier this month. A curious mix of eccentric costumes, video intermissions, and minimal lighting, juxtaposed with the Church’s traditional Christian surroundings created an eerie and whimsical atmosphere. 2019 marks the 50th anniversary of the band and their UK tour made a […]

The Manchurian trio Gogo Penguin gave an incredible performance at what must have been their biggest show to date at the Royal Albert Hall.

Kikagaku Moyo

An Impressive Performance From Kikagaku Moyo At Scala

Thu Nov 22 2018

Two years ago, I saw Japanese psych-rock band Kikagaku Moyo in a half full pub in Dalston where they were touring their 2016 album ‘House in the Tall Grass’. They performed a pretty great show. This time around they really outdid themselves, playing an even better show at a sold-out Scala. With an album out […]

The Melvins

The Melvins, arguably one of the most important underground bands through the late 80s and 90s, released their 21st studio album ‘Pinkus Abortion Technician’ in April this year. The album didn’t offer too much in the way of the Melvins exploring boundaries like they have done fantastically in the past, but it does offer some […]

Canshaker Pi At The Victoria, Dalston

Thu Oct 25 2018

After seeing Canshaker Pi earlier this year at Brighton’s Great Escape festival in May I was really eager going into their co-headline gig with Avalanche Party at The Victoria in Dalston. The Quartet, based in Amsterdam, played a near-capacity show at Brighton’s Komedia and thrilled the audience with their signature creative dissonance, playful pop writing, […]

Anna Pancaldi’s New Single ‘Peace’ Leads Her To A New Direction

Tue Oct 23 2018

Anna Pancaldi’s new single ‘Peace’ leads her to a new direction and sound. Described as a ‘foot stomper’ track, it has more of a classic indie-rock feel as Anna experiments with new instruments and it follows effortlessly from her bold previous offering ‘What I’ve Become’. Anna comments on these new changes to her music, “A challenge at first but […]

Yussef Dayes Live Show Review, Scala

Thu Oct 18 2018

Yussef Dayes gave a fantastic performance at a sold-out, overflowing Scala, gifting the audience with finger blistering drum solos with all-round great performances from his band, as well as special guests, Alfa Mist and Mansur Brown who joined for several songs. Yussef Dayes’ set, which we were told was mostly improvised, was splitting at the seams […]
