Metronomy - The English Riviera (Album Review)

The LA sound? Yes. The Seattle sound? Yes. The Devon sound? Well that’s possibly not one many people are used to hearing, however Metronomy aim to change that with their third album ‘The English Riviera’. Using the resort’s name and logo for this new release, the band have attempted to create an album that gives Devon it’s own sound, because apparently, ‘at the moment it’s crap’.

Alessi’s Ark – Time Travel (Album Review)
Music Reviews
Thursday, 21 April 2011 Written by Rob Sleigh


There aren’t too many artists out there that have released two albums, worked with people from bands as well-known as Bright Eyes and Mumford & Sons and toured with a list of equally renowned artists - all by the time they reach the age of 20. Even fewer have done it with the precision and awe-inspiring manner of Hammersmith’s Alessi Laurent-Marke – aka Alessi’s Ark. Two years after the release of her debut album ‘Notes from the Treehouse’ (which was produced by Bright Eyes’ Mike Mogis) and Alessi is back with her second LP ‘Time Travel’.

Stereoboard Speaks To Heath Hospodarsky & James Lyle Of Giants To Talk About The New EP (Interview)

Initially formed in 2005 in Americas mid west, post rock outfit Giants have never relented in doing things their way. Their self titled first EP recorded on a shoestring in Cedar Falls, Iowa was originally intended to have vocals, but when the band heard the instrumental tracks they felt their music was strong enough on its own merit and left the vocals out. The band hand burned three hundred CD-R’s of the EP and sold out of them after just their first two shows. This was the end of the EP until now.

Jamie Woon - Mirrorwriting (Album Review)

I had owned Jamie Woon’s debut, 'Mirrowriting', a matter of hours and had listened to it only twice, when it became the ignition of an argument between a close friend and I. Not only did I passingly use the term ‘post-dub’ (which on refelection was slightly stupid, as it shows that The NME may actually have an effect on my life. And no one wants that do they?), I also compared Woon to namesake Blake. Apparently this was a most heinous of crimes.
