Review of 'Rose Mountain' by Screaming Females


New Jersey punk trio, Screaming Females, are priviledged to have such a badass vocalist. Whilst I wouldn’t go so far as to call her style ‘screaming’ as the band name suggests, it’s definitely a step up in intensity from your usual average rock chick vocals - a kind of manic, blood-pumping wail of sorts more similar to Siouxsie Sioux or that dude from Glassjaw (forgive me if I’m just listing off random names. It’s how us music bloggers work).

Congratulations. You all survived the winter. Now we’ve entered Spring, the season of rebirth. The leaves and the bees and wild Kanyes are all re-emerging and everyone’s happy and frolicking in the streets because 2015’s going to be the best year since 2014. I CAN JUST FEEL IT.

Anyway, here are the best and worst tracks of the week.

Review of 'Sour Soul' by BADBADNOTGOOD and Ghostface Killah


Sour Soul has all the instrumental grandeur of a Bond movie. Why then is Ghostface Killah not rapping about fast cars and hot women and gunfights like he always does? Why instead is he giving us nutritional tips?

BEST AND WORST NEW TRACKS OF THE WEEK 18/02/2015: Sufjan Stevens, Slaves, Earl Sweatshirt and more...



It's time for that special segment of the site in which I sieve through the singles of the last seven days, separating the superb from the shit. This week, Sufjan Stevens, Slaves and Earl Sweatshirt all serve up songs. So much sibilance. It's starting to get silly.
