A QUICK CATCH UP WITH HUNNYBEES

“I think we’re massive attention whores! I love being validated by strangers. And I think the options are: go to Morrison’s car park at two in the morning, and hope someone you know, fancies me, or, start playing music.” No, you did read that right, that is the drummer of HUNYBEES Louis Bailey stating the […]

“Psychedelic” Titles That Happen To Be Of Quality

The supposed sound of paisley; hijacked more than any poorly guarded airliner, ubiquitous in how many optical migraine inducing outfits it indirectly spawned and with the quasi-surrealist art style associated being metaphorically copped so many times… it would probably cajole the late Salvador Dali into being a subscriber of Falangism if it were to offer […]
Following the release of Southampton based 4-piece Regent’s latest single ‘Dirty Little Sinner’, Sophie Nebesniak briefly spoke to the band to find out a little bit about them.

Titles of Quality - Metal

Non-Ferrous Types of Metal Titles… of Quality

Suspect iterations of this style aside, it’s worth taking into consideration this genre isn’t entirely dominated by inarticulate screeching and ‘bleak’ (yet ultimately facile) nuances about Satan, speeds wheels or law breaking.

The ‘New Wave’ moniker covers an expanse of styles that would probably be best represented by a diagram depicting rainfall (representing: subgenres) over a large, undefined area of landmass (representing: aforementioned genre) within the planet we presume to own. To narrow down this amorphous projection involves one of these musical offshoots (see above) that unsurprisingly […]

Titles of Quality: Industrial

Titles of Quality That Loosely Fall Under the Industrial Label

Forever confusing the folk of the norm owing to the ill-defined nature of the title, forever the niche unwittingly associated with metallic visors and florescent flares, in turn associated with the Philip K. Dick/Ghost in the Shell/*placeholder futurist adjective* envisioning of what the passage of time may result in, as though theorising that cycling attire […]
