Music reviews. Recorded, live or undecided. Cutting edge or Kylie. No editorial policy and no truck with cool. Independence is lovely, indie is bollocks. We listen to everything and we review everything.

Young people like old music. Annoying, but we decided to hoe on down to the likes of Alice Cooper / Bob Dylan / Deep Purple / Guns N Roses / Jimi Hendrix / Led Zepellin / The Beatles / The Darkness / The Kinks / The Sex Pistols / T.Rex
"Ice Cream" by El Spoonio. A brilliantly disturbing reference to the ever-popular habit of kiddie fiddling. Sad to say that the habit is still popular, but El Spoonio are long gone. On the bright side, you can steal the track from here;

It's time for the all new, re-touching it's roots, not commercial, at
all Glastonbury Festival and the big guy is predicted to be
lobbing the thunderbolts and pissing all over the joint. So it's
just as well that The Guardian printed some 'Glastonbury
Survival Tips' and a bitch n bile summary is below. The original
is still at www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/
2009/jun/24/glastonbury-festival-survival-tips
#1 Put your keys somewhere safe.
No shit, I thought I'd staple them to the first odd-looking person who
bumped into me.
#2 Pack lots of wet wipes.
Eh? When it rains, everything is a wet wipe.
#3 Eight quid for lukewarm noodles, not good.
Part of the Glasto problem are the people who think that £8 for noodles
is a great deal.
#4 Wear shorts under your waterproofs! It can be chucking it
down relentlessly for 48 hours, but still your legs will be too hot
if you shove a layer of denim under your plastic trousers.
Part of the Glasto problem are the people who send a few quid to
Bangladesh and still believe that two days of heavy showers is
anything like 'chucking it down relentlessly'.
WACKO JACKO NO COME BACK-O
We are confused.
A fifty one year old man
has suffered cardiac arrest
and died. Now every tart with
access to a qwerty-board is rushing
out articles with headlines like "The
Day The Music Died", "Blame It On The
Doctor" and "That Is Not My Son". Obviously
the legendary, iconic, influential, creepy, genius,
totteringly wealthy, terrifyingly skint, artiste known as Michael Jackson is dead. However... it is a fact that
Michael had done nothing of creative or commercial note since the 1991 release of "Dangerous". We take the release of the gold-plated, best-ever, see you outside if you disagree "Earth Song" in 1999 as genuine rage against the dying of the light and would prefer to remember him with this track on full volume.

GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL SURVIVAL TIPS... MOCKED
#5 Take earplugs.
Ooooh, it's going to be fun at a music festival with you
pass me a wine gum, make it two, I'm going for it.
#6 Clearly label your drinks so as not to start the
day with a glug of water you mistook for industrial
strength absinthe. Oh, hang on, have we got that
the wrong way around? Oops
Clearly label your drinks? Why not sew labels into your
cashmere jumpers or hang a sign around your neck with
'my name is Poxie Autobahn, please return to SW6'

#7 Do get lost in the legendary "Glasto spirit"
Blag everything while sneering at the people being
over-charged for corporate rubbish.
#8 Don't get so lost in the legendary "Glasto spirit
that you end up spending all your cash on an avant-garde sculpture crafted from a bin bag and some twigs.
Are we back to the absinthe and water thing?
#9 Take lots of plastic bags.
I would, but I'm pretty sure that Kate Moss and her mates are bossed up.
#10 Take cigarette lighters and bottle openers. It's amazing how popular you will become.
Take cigarette lighters and bottle openers? Brilliant, once you've gouged the author, you can burn an idiot.

It's just that we can't start the car without them...
Told you, I stapled them to a guy with a hat!
