This band never ceases to amaze me. I’m trawling through their entire back catalogue (going back to the mid-90s) where they were first discovered and nurtured by Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley.

commentsAin’t nothing but the blues. Great early recordings from a bunch of hairy English blues obsessives. With the exception of The Who, has there ever been a more devastating outfit than this bunch of ruffians?
commentsIt’s after 9pm on a Thursday evening. Kettley arrived home next door late afternoon and cranked up his Pearl Jam. (I’m so pleased I declared this on my 10 bands I fucking hate list!
commentsI flipped an “N” on my randomiser. With less than a dozen artists to choose from I went for the midling and picked New Order’s forth record.
commentsThe first thing that hits you is the BIG production. Being on vinyl it feels impossibly expansive. It’s a go slow from the first track and I’m checking the deck speed.
