Sometimes the ska Continue Reading

snake eyes is a duo composed of Jim Heffy (vocals/guitar) and Thomas Coe-Brooker (drums/vocals), and they have just released their debut album, ‘cash rich’.

Following several quarters of disappointing employee morale and unprofitable emotional expression, Northampton-based mega-enterprise Utopia Development Corporation is releasing its debut EP, 'Industrial Area Swimming Centre' - a title inspired by one of the most misleading pieces of public signage in the United Kingdom.

Album review: Thee Headshrinkers – ‘Head Cheese’

By Alex Goose
Chaotic. That’s the word that comes to mind when reading about - and listening to - Thee Headshrinkers, and trust us, it’s a good thing. Based around the East Sussex/Kent area, the trio all originally met online and got straight to work on trying to emulate The Jesus And Mary Chain.
