Death In Vegas - Dead Elvis

Let me get straight to the point here - this album is not what I expected at all. The only exposure to this band that I had before this album was their last single ‘Rocco’ which was enough to initiate the line of thinking that this would be a hard-edged

Various - Talvin Singh Presents Anokha

Talvin Singh Presents... is not simply any old compilation album. He both writes, plays and produces on several of the tracks, and the album’s diversity stems from the fact that this has been compiled only under the heading Asian Underground. Anokha is the club night that has become synonymous

IC football in not crap shock

Yet again the conditions were against IC, playing away to league leaders LSE in the usual windy conditions. The weather made it difficult to slip into the slick passing style that we have so successfully copied from the second team. The first half was tending to a draw until five

Weekly Poem: London Bridge to Waterloo (East)

For pride of place in the pile That lives upon an ocean Of floating finance food For business suited sharks. Money grows on trees In these 1990’s parks. The past is on my side, Coronation Street chimneys rising, Brown bricked buildings falling down Like London Bridge, but hiding In

18 Wheeler - Year Zero

18 Wheeler’s newly-released effort is a sharp contrast to their previously-released dull trad indie efforts. Presumably the intention was to fuse exciting dubby beats and the best of electronic effects with their usual guitar pop, much the same as their Creation stable-mates The Boo Radleys did in their spectacular
