The Racists
I just found this great new band ‘The Racists’ on myspace. I think they have something to do with Bo-Ningen so obviously it’s gonna be of a high calibre. They played there first gig at the weekend, I wish I had known I would have loved to have been there. They remind me of the first D.A.F album, great haevy bass with rockin drums and spikey guitar layered over the top. They also...

Ska'd For Life - Horace Panter
I recently bought this book from the bargain bucket bin at HMV. its a biography of the specials by their fantastic bass player - Horace Panter. I wasn’t expecting much due to the fact that it cost 3 pounds and the only quotes on the back were from the Daily Sport and Mojo. Not only this but the foreword was by none other than Phil Jupitus. surely they could have got Jerry Dammers or Rick...

Unfortunate Incident at the Dentist
Forgive me if I’m letting you know too much about my private life here but I’m so embaressed with myself I feel I should share the cringe with the public. I had a dentist appointment this morning for some long awaited work that needs doing and it was scheduled for 10.30. I have trouble getting up so I didn’t actually rise until 9.45. This meant I had to shower etc. in 10 minutes...

Divorce Review
(Before I start to write this review. I’d just like to point out that when listening to this record I realised this is the only new release I have gone out and bought from a band I do not know. This annoys me, I’m going to rectify this situation.) I first heard this band at some party a few months back but, when I woke in the morning i couldn’t remember what they were called....

Lightning Bolt are coming to town! →
I just found out that Lighning Bolt are playing The Dome, London on the 10th December. This is gonna be fucking rockin’ so I suggest everyone goes to see them. The only time I have seen them is at Primavera and it was on a big stage. It’s gonna be far better to see them in a club. I cant’ wait. It’s all about some progressive, drum and bass infused, noise metal.

PiL - Chant & The Tube interview →
John Lydon recently announced that he will be reforming PiL. When i first heard this i was genuinly excited, but now thinking about it, its gonna be fucking shit. Wobble and Levene have declined to do it so basically the only members are gonna be late-era Public Image or session musicians, which begs the thought. What’s the point? Lydon you disgust me. you already destroyed the Sex Pistols...

The Adicts
Apart from Ipswich Town Football Club and Abbot Ale, Ipswich has not produced anything that can be deemed exciting or interesting. The only good thing to have ever left this small suffolk town is The Adicts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV5-KhZMOtY The Adicts- Joker in the Pack I heard about this band when i discovered my Dad’s old 45’s box in his shed. This is their first e.p...
