Surprise new track from Metallica ahead of Glastonbury!

nevitably facebook friends grumbling that ‘Andy Murray is British when he’s winning and Scottish when he’s losing.’

On top of it all, there’s Glastonbury coverage to look forward to, and this year’s surprise headliners are Metallica. I am aware that this has gone down badly with some people, who seem to think that the festival should only ever book white boy guitar bands (they must have been at a diff

Metallica are working on their new album, they released this new track today, which sounds like classic Metallica to these ears. If it doesn’t quite yet compare with the likes of ‘One’ ‘Enter Sandman’ or ‘Fade To Black’ then, that’s probably because you’ve lived

Time will tell. In the meantime, this is Metallica’s latest song ‘Lords Of Summer’ – crank it up.

Guess who’s back?

Well, back in Edinburgh after a lovely week’s holiday in England -and let me tell you there are still some places where mobile reception is comically bad in England to this day.

There will be more reviews, Introducing etc.. very soon, but I thought as

ng to sound smug about it, it’s great when a band you have tipped at an early stage start to make serious inroads. About eighteen months ago, I did one of my Presenting… features on new bands, and in this case, it was Woman’s Hour.

Fast forward eighteen months and the band are to release their debut album Conversations on Secretly Canadian on July 21.

The tracklisting for the album is as follows:

1. Unbroken Sequence
2. Conversations
3. To the End
4. Darkest Place
5. In Stillness We Remain
6. Our Love Has No Rhythm
7. Her Ghost
8. Two Sides of You
9. Devotion
10. Reflections
11. Day That Needs Defending

Considering how little was known about them when they first appeared, they now come across as a band who make striking videos and eye-catching artwork. Check out the videos available so far…

sote on backing vocals.

So no, not another singer-songwriter-guitarist (not that she ever was). This is a summery record, and proof that such things do not have to be reggae ultra-lite or cheesy. Instead, what we have is an album that almost defies categorisation, and is all the better for it. One of the few comparisons I can draw with is Elvis Costello’s collaboration with The Brodsky Quartet, The Juliet Letters. And even then, perhaps because that was for voice and string quartet and that may even be where it ends.

It may seem unusual at first, but as with the all best albums, it reveals more and more of its charms with each successive play. Truly something that does not sound like anything else.

How much do I like this record? Well, it’s the first album that I’ve played three times back to back in a long time. That’s it for starters….

d his best friend in quick succession influenced this album – although it is actually an incredibly uplifting song. But interestingly, La Petite Mort is also a French euphemism for orgasm.

But it’s not a smutty euphemism, nor is it a miserable album. The jaw-dropping video for ‘Moving On’ – entirely constructed of string gives an insight into how James are still firing on all cylinders this far into their career. Sure, they took a break for six years in the last decade, but when they reformed, they were both amazing live and and on record. Whilst some bands reform for the money, James seem to be doing it for their art and making new music that adds to their already imp

ressive legacy (Blondie, I hope you’re taking note).

And the opening three song salvo of ‘Walk Like You,’ ‘Curse Curs’ and ‘Moving On’ is a pretty amazing run. Ever since the CD player made it easier for people to simply skip through album tracks and the download age made it easier for people to just cherry pick the songs they wanted, that really counts for something. It’s a record that not only holds up well against their first post-reformation album Hey Ma but also against the early run of albums in the nineties that included Gold Mother, Seven and Laid.

Long may they run.

New album – Blondie

Blondie

Blondie ‘Blondie 4(0) ever:Greatest Hits Redux/Ghosts of Download’ (Noble ID LLC)

Dear God in heaven. I never thought the day would come when I’d be writing a bad review of Blondie.

Look, as far as I’m concerned, between 1976-1981, Blondie were one of the greatest bands on the planet. Parallel Lines, their third album from 1978, is in my all time top five albums. I saw them live in 2004 and they were excellent. Yet somehow, Blondie have dropped this package that I Do Not Feel You Should Waste Your Money On.

The first part of the package is a greatest hits – except completely re-recorded. Now only a couple of years off seventy, Debbie Harry’s voice is still sounding great – and these aren’t awful remakes, but unless they’ve been denied royalties on old records, I cannot think of any reason to buy these remakes. They’re not bad, just not as good.

And then there’s the second disc, their new album Ghosts Of Download. This is their tenth studio album in total, and their fourth since reforming at the end of the nineties. Now, each of their previous three albums since reforming had some redeeming features -and ‘Maria’ was deservedly a no.1 hit. But it starts off with the naff ‘Sugar On The Side’ and it just…fails to get any better. THe nadir is their cover of Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s ‘Relax.’ Somehow, in the hands of one of the coolest women to walk the earth and one of the best bands of the last forty years it’s…awful. Considering that the original caused a stink thirty years ago, the only reason Mike Reed would be refusing to play this is because it’s such a mess.

By the time the final track came to the end I was just relieved.

Album Review – Sharon van Etten

I am pleased to be able to tell everyone that the lead-off songs ‘Every Ti

best online pharmacy with fast delivery advair for sale with the lowest prices today in the USA

picion of singer-songwriters I often have, of both sexes. Her smoky-blues voice is brilliant, the songs fantastic and hopefully this record will be a commercial success, because it so deserves to be. It’s a record to appreciate from start to finish and one I want to play again as soon as it’s finished.

To these ears – and many others, I hope -van Etten’s latest album shows her as an artist who has come of age. Having spoken about how she didn’t want to work with big name collaborators for this record, the proof of the pudding is that she very definitely doesn’t need them, and if people weren’t aware of her before now, this is the record to put that right. One of the strongest albums so far this year.
