Emotional Response at Suburban Voice

Bad Daddies’ side is loud ‘n fuzzy ‘n catchy, especially for the last song, “It’s Not You.” There’s a wicked hook on the chorus, both musically and in Camylle’s vocal. “Stay True” is also quite tuneful, following the 22 second opening burst of “War.” Hard Left are from Oakland but you might mistake them for… Continue reading Emotional Response at Suburban Voice

Sleaford Mods at The Vinyl Factory

If you don’t know who Sleaford Mods are by now then you really must live in a cave, in the middle of nowhere. Without doubt England’s most important band at the moment strike again with a killer 7″ on Emotional Response. ‘A Little Ditty’ (taken from the Divide And Exit LP) finds the rants riding… Continue reading Sleaford Mods at The Vinyl Factory

Sleaford Mods at Louder Than War

Sleaford Mods at Backseat Mafia

There’s not a band around at the moment like Sleaford Mods. The Nottingham two piece deliver minimalist beats punk beats courtesy of Andrew Fearn, and the people’s poetry of Jason Williamson, at once commenting on the social issues that affect us all, at another full of enthusiasm and humour, has this startlingly abrupt brilliance about… Continue reading Sleaford Mods at Backseat Mafia
