MySpace Trawl – Envelope

by Matthew Laidlow

Back in the olden days, to create the sound of an orchestra, you literally needed the real thing. This often lead to major problems in terms of booking a room to fit them all, having enough money to pay for one and making sure everybody turned up. Now, you can download an app on your [...]

MySpace Trawl – Harry And The Potters

by Matthew Laidlow

Every now and then, something comes along that is so epic and brilliant that it makes us question everything we’ve ever listened to. With Harry And The Potters, we’re sticking our necks out to say that they are one of the most ace bands we’ve come across in a long time. We were a bit [...]

MySpace Trawl – Jon Hopkins

by Matthew Laidlow

One of the best things about getting free stuff is the press releases that come attached. Typically they’ll start with the awful phrase “xxx xxx is a man who knows no bounds”. However, even we have to sometimes use phrases we hate to describe various things. In this case, Jon Hopkins is a man who [...]

MySpace Trawl – Frankie & The Heartstrings

by Matthew Laidlow

Now it’s not like hecklerspray to be rude about people. That just isn’t in our nature. We’re all for peace, love and the giving of cake. But sometimes we do get a little bit bothered about stuff. Some folk may say we’re just being bellends and need to grow up, but just hold tight with [...]

MySpace Trawl – Gold Panda

by Matthew Laidlow

Not only is it coming to the end of this year, but also the end of the decade. So far, various lists have been chewed over to come up with the best albums of 2009. And, as usual in December, it’s time for so-called industry bigwigs to tell us what will be clogging up space [...]

MySpace Trawl – Happiest Lion

by Matthew Laidlow

It’s that time of year when we all celebrate the birth of our lord saviour Jesus H. Christ by eating a small squares of chocolate every day. But we don’t call the 25th December ‘Jesus Day’. Oh no, it has to be more complicated than that. For whatever reason, it’s called ‘Christmas’. Perhaps Santa can [...]

MySpace Trawl – Earth Lay For Fiction

by Matthew Laidlow

Sometimes when we have to write these various pieces, it does cause us headaches. Not because we have stupidly high standards and regard the majority of music as rubbish. We don’t think that for a second; if our opinion mattered we’d be on some sort of smug music panel show or furiously writing for the [...]

MySpace Trawl – Silent Devices

by Matthew Laidlow

Certain cities have various scenes that have been established over time. For bands that get involved, it’s all fine and dandy for them. Look no further than Oasis and The Smiths from Manchester who set the bar for others to follow. But then again, not everyone wants to crank out indie music which continually sounds [...]

MySpace Trawl – Bibio

by Matthew Laidlow

With 2009 kicking and screaming to a close, many magazines and other publications often spit out their best-of lists.

Usually it’s the opinion of one person sat in an office. Most of the time, people with any sense flick past them as they don’t need someone else telling them what is considered to be good.

Though we could use the arse end of 2009 to go over the artists we’ve looked at, we won’t. Instead, we’ll still try to at least bring you something creatively different and worth investing in. This week, we couldn’t pick a better artist for mixing things up than Bibio. Whilst we don’t know if it’s pronounced Bi-bio or Bib-io, the records released by him are bloody fantastic.

MySpace Trawl – One Little Plane

by Matthew Laidlow

Yee-haw kids, its reality pop star season, so what does that mean? It means that anyone who’s got an ounce of talent in their blood is going to get ignored. Money-making mass-produced rubbish will take over and make us all believe it’s the best thing since the last reality show winner from the previous month. [...]
