Flashguns - Passions Of A Different Kind (Single Review)

If there ever was a band that sounds exactly like todays indie music scene, then Flashguns are exactly it. 'Passions of a Different Kind' brings to the table a slightly moody, if upbeat twinkle of emotive jangly guitar pop rock. Even the vocals by frontman Sam Felix Johnston have a particular wail about them that doesn’t really set them apart from their peers. So, while this song is about as original and fresh as anything U2 have released in the last ten years, that doesn’t mean to say it’s bad. After all, Radiohead sounded like Pixies when they started out, and Muse sounded like Radiohead. Look what’s happened to the pair of them now.

Stealing Sheep – The Mountain Dogs (EP Review)
Music Reviews
Monday, 16 May 2011 Written by James Ball


The very first thing I thought when playing the title track of this EP was that I was going to get a boring country tinged piece of American bore. Not that country music is bad in any way, but any country music that isn’t excellent is awful. There seems to be no in-between. Anyway, I’ve digressed. So, when the lo-fi harmonious female vocals popped in for a tea party, flitting between the childish and playful, I was honestly surprised by what I was hearing. It’s certainly not country.
