Watching VH2 this weekend I was suprised to see people who used to hang out at some of my old haunts in Southampton. I present to you The Delays. Q magazine also has a write up in this months issue.
NME reports that the new Charlatans album ‘Up at the lake’ has finally been recorded. “It’s a very stripped down sound,” explained bassist Martin Blunt. “The songs are very haunting and stick with you. Back in December during some of the nights when we were in full recording it did remind me of ‘Lost Highway’ [...]
What’s your favouite station to listen to whilst playing Grand Thefo Auto: Vice City? I find myself listening more and more to one that churns out the cheesy 80s power ballads.

This intimate performance marked the start of what will hopefully be a year in which I see much more live music. And what a way to kick of the year. Not only do Aqualung hail from my home town of Southampton (thus automatically grating them exclusive license to a place in my heart) but they [...]
