This song is over a year old now but still kills! I was reading some articles about culture & race within music, particularly in Britain where young people form such a sense of self through music. From Teds, Mods, Punks,…

Noel Gallagher – Holy Mountain
Hot on the heels of Liam Gallagher’s new album release is brother Noel’s big, new single. Equal parts Roxy Music’s ‘Let’s Stick Together’, 60s Doo Wop and Ricky Martin’s ‘She Bangs’ it marks a very new direction for the former…
Stop Draggin’ my Heart Around – Stevie Nicks & Tom Petty
We lost ANOTHER Rock’n’Roll icon this week. This time, Tom Petty. The waif, flaxen-haired embodiment of classic, guitar-toting Americana passed away Tuesday at the age of 66. I always really liked Tom Petty and was sad to hear of his untimely…
Harry Styles – The Chain (Fleetwood Mac)
Hunky, former One Direction dreamboat, Harry Edward Styles is certainly proving there’s life after being in the world’s biggest Pop group. With the release of his debut solo album, along with his Australian Tour selling out in MINUTES, we’re now…

The Coral – Dreaming of You
The Coral were the band that deserved to be bigger than they were in the early 2000s. While The Strokes & Kings of Leon dominated airwaves, The Coral’s mix of 60s beat grooves, Surf pop harmonies and quirky, laddish charm planted…
Let yourself Go – Elvis Presley
This week saw the 40th Anniversary of the passing of Elvis Presley, The King of Rock’n’Roll. I’ve loved Elvis since I was very little, watching his classic films on TV most Saturday afternoons then singing his songs & mimicking his…
Funky Town – Lipps Inc.
This week was my Birthday. I’ve had lots of them by now. I’m feeling old. I’m feeling old but I was spoiled rotten by my partner this week and now I’m gonna get drunk all weekend. But I am feeling…
Your Light – Total Giovanni
Local good time, disco sleaze lords, Total Giovanni return with their brand new video and it’s rad. The song itself is great but the video is just TOPS! Catch ’em playing with the equally awesome, Client Liaison later this month.…
