So, if you’re in and around Edinburgh during the fringe, and even if you’re not particularly in

Blue Sky Archives -‘Blue Sky Archives EP’ (self-released)

Glasgow five-piece Blue Sky Archives describe themselves as making post-rock pop music with a heart. This is actually a fairly accurate description, there’s a scope to them but

an edge that means epic and anthemic wouldn’t do their sound justice.

Comprising Ross Rankin (drums), Lauren Mayberry (vocals, synth, percussion), Matt Phelan (Vocals, guita

Post-rock pop doesn’t have to be an oxymoron; these guys and gal show that there’s blue sky thinking going on here, and very impressive it is, too.

August in Edinburgh.

The International Festival, The Book Festival, The Fringe (Film Festival now takes place in June)…an extremely busy time for the city, but one I look forward to every year.

And then proceed to grumble about when tourists get in my way, and I spend my life saying ‘No I don’t want your flyer.’

Quite forgetting of course, that I arrived here nine years ago, knowing no-one in this City, to see my brother doing his stuff on the fringe…and I stayed. And earned money by flyering. And if some of my dreams crashed and burned, then many of them came true. I met my wonderful wife of three years and married here, met some of my best friends, started interviewing and reviewing bands, D

Album Review: Tango In The Attic

Tango In The Attic -‘Bank Place Locomotive Society.’ (Self-released)

Glenrothes five-piece have been around for a while now, and have released some really good singles over the course of the last year or so. Still unisgned, they have now unleashed their debut album, Bank Place Locomotive Society. A few listens in -and my initial thought still remains: They sound like a Scottish Vampire Weekend.

Now, that’s not meant as a criticism; I’ve really enjoyed both VW albums. I’m not the only person to have

ueprint that they used to make their debut (and so far only released album). As to whether the band have well-played copies of Graceland and The Indestructible Beat Of Soweto…who knows? Certainly the opener ‘One Step Away’ does make you think you could be listening to one of them.

The tracks that have seen the light of day so far as singles ‘Jackanory’ ‘Blunderground’ and ‘Seven Second Stare’ are probably the strongest here, though I’d also nominate ‘Sketch by Quention Blake’ and ‘Off To.’ None of the tracks here are weak, and it

I’ve hinted at it before, but next week I will start four weeks of having my own radio show on Edinburgh’s local student radio statio, Fresh Air.

I was very flattered to be approached by them, to do something during the festival, so I’m going to do the best I possibly can

It goes without saying that I will be supporting local acts, and I’ve already worked out what the first track I want to play is (and no, it’s not an act on 17 Seconds Records, past or present!) I’m trying to finalise some live music and hopefully some more guests. I am also hoping to feature some unsigned acts, so if you read this and would like me to consider playing your music, please get in touch via the email on the right. Among

The Suzan are a Japanese band consisting of four girls who have just grabbed me by the short and curl

ies, so to speak. they come from Tokyo and they are Saori on Vocals and Guitar; Rie on Guitar and Keyboards, Nico on Drums and Ikue on bass.

I was intrigued that they’d got Bjorn Yttling of Peter, Bjorn and John to produce their album. My ears pricked up further when the small press release mentioned the Violent Femmes and the mighty ESG. And then I heard the new single ‘Home.’ It’s bloody fantastic. It’s aesthetically moorish, I can’t wait to p

lay it again the moment I’ve finished listening to it. Imagine the primal funk of ESG infused with Japanese pop, as hypnotic as an Indian raga. That good. It also reminds me a little of Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club circa 1981 (this is meant as high praise).

Their forthcoming album, entitled Golden Week For The Poco Poco Beat will be released in the autumn. I’m trying to find somewhere where I can buy their single from, but in the meantime, cheerish this free (legal download). You will want to investigate further, I PROMISE.

Album Review – Stornoway

Stornoway -‘Beachcomber’s Windowsill’ (4AD)

OK, this has been a out for a while. But I’d decided – cautiously- to give it a listen and whether they deserved the adulation that the four piece band from O

online pharmacy buy zithromax online with best prices today in the USA

xford, named after a Scottish town on the Isle of Lewis were getting.

The answer is -unequivocally -yes. This album not only has gorgeous songs, but in the spirit of the DiY age that we find ourselves in, in this new age of austerity, they mostly recorded it themselves. It’s not only this that they have in common with the likes of Aberfeldy, it’s the fact that this is chamber pop at its’ very finest. It’s a folky take on the sound of c86, that comes from the heart. No windowdressing, no mucking about, just honest-to-goodness songs.

Sure people have compared them to Mumford & Sons (and there are worse bands to be compared to). But much as I like that album, I’m falling head over heels in love with this. What’s impress is is just how many awesome tracks there are, and how they flow together yet remain distinctive at the same time. The banjos on ‘We Are the Battery Human’ initially took me by surprise, but by the second chorus it felt completely natural. Hopefully by now you’ve heard opening track ‘Zorbing’ but whilst it’s a great starting

online pharmacy buy kamagra oral jelly online with best prices today in the USA

point, you want to hear this whole album.

Yet again 4AD have come up trumps with yet another amazing act. And whatever happens to them (hopefully worldwide fame and fortune), nothing can take away from the fact that Stornoway have made a gorgeous debut LP.
