Bright Side and Dark Side mixes offer up a different listening experience of what is a phenomenally rich record wistfully
musing on decay, life, age, new beginnings and love with absolutely outstanding production and seemless flow. Possibly
the greatest record ever made by a septuagenarian. The dark-side mix is the one to listen to but both are essential. |

| Gandalf's Fist The Clockwork Fable | 5.0 |
A rip roaring 3 hour prog musical radio play wrapped around a steampunk setting incorporating a myriad of characters
including eccentric inventors, automatons with hearts of gold, religious tyrants and heroes all played out within a living
breathing
world where you can almost feel the dank, grease, grime and oppression. It also has the lad from Gremlins in it.rIf this
isn?t
an accomplishment worthy of a 5 then absolutely nothing is. |

Geezers in their 80s deliver a swaggering raucous slab of good old rock n roll the way it was meant to be played.
Staggering stuff that anyone and their mum can enjoy all the while the pitchfork crowd will sniff at it because they
cannot accept the fact modern bands and music is complete and utter tripe in comparison |

They reign things in here to such an extent it takes a few listens for this one to reveal its majesty but once it does it?s spectacular. For me this is the only record I?ve heard in life that makes me actually appreciate what I have in my own. Staggering. |

A progressive, electronic cinematic oeuvre that climaxes in a record that juxtaposes the frailty of the persona with
the euphoria of unhindered abandonment of conscious self enlightenment. Laying down a framework of loose,
unfurling automated melancholy these instrumental soundscapes are anchored in an emblematic nod to Ingmar
Bergmans nom de simulaire filmic piece by utilising minimal beats to act as conduit.rIn short, considering I was
giving it a miss cos rival consoles sounds like an emo brat band pile of shite, this album has knocked me bollocks
off. |

| A vapid, emotionless record void of creativity or worth. This is apparent rock music. For whom does the bell toll, the scene, the artist or the horde of subjugated brats who?ve lost their ability to question and deride any form of anger against the pap force fed them by the corporate marketing clones. This is an album of nothing for the betterment of nobody with the intention of becoming needless to the needy. Burn it and ignite the flame in your soul to bring back some swagger and bollocks that you?ve sacrificed in order to become just another hapless cunt who has yet to engage in the real deal. |

| The Necks Drive By | 5.0 |
| No Age Snares Like A Haircut | 4.5 |
Now this is what I?m talking about. A genuine slice of guitar based alt rock that cuts a swathe and shows the
pretenders how it should be done by appearing effortless, honest and shimmies with a purpose. The only people
on the planet who can do this sought of stuff properly is the yanks God Bless them. Amazing album. Fucking
awful front cover mind. Fucking stabbed bendy cheese? Righto. |

| The Dear Hunter All Is As All Should Be | 1.5 |
| All is all should be. Namely people heap praise on watered down, flavourless, asinine drivel that does absolutely nothing other than titilate gormless brats who haven?t questioned anything in their vapid little lives. And when I say people I obviously mean sput yank brats who shit themselves and dish out 4-5s over this sort of bollocks. Have you fuckers ever thought once about listening to The Who and possibly kissing a girl? |

The actual facts are it's plastic rubbish churned out by whores who are desperate to cling on to the transparent nothing they held for almost 5mins because they were a 9yr old girls fave band for 5seconds. I have no doubt sowing will 4.5 it. |

| The doors have been blown clean off. All the confusion, anger, disenchantment and displacement have been answered by the holy grail of rock n roll. This album is the answer.

| The Maccabees Marks To Prove It | 4.5 |
| You know that baseless, insipid, concocted at art school by fools who are there to grow beards, amalgamation of styles that offers nothing new, bland rubbish churned out every week by 'bands' who are in the charts? You know that sort? Well I'll be buggered but heres one of them who actually offer something new, heartfelt melodious and soul stirring. It's an album of 2015 I tell ya. |
| Dodgy Homegrown | 4.0 |
| Those teen days smoking rubbish weed and drinking Hooch, being useless with girls and even worse at having a point to prove all the while wearing airwalk trainers and getting frustrated at Blanka on SFII. This was the uncooler, unloved, awkward, fumbling beautiful soundtrack to it all and it still rules. |
