Is anyone else’s inner teenager singing for joy at the return of Belle & Sebastian?! They are finally back in our ear drums (they never really left mine), and will soon be returning to our shores to top it all off. They’re bringing their latest album, Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance, with them and judging […]
This might sound like an outrageous comment, but it’s one that i’m going to stick to. Tonstartssbandht are possibly the most energetic live music performance I’ve seen in 2014. Now before you start jumping to conclusions, there are many factors that go into this comment and to be honest, it wasn’t that hard. The factors include, the venue, […]
Did anyone predict the complete takeover of the world that CHVRCHES has secretly been doing this year? Being booked on just about every festival bill for the last 12 months, their album has skyrocketed to be one of the best electro-pop releases of the past few years.
