Today’s rather simple Organ Thing of the Day is really as much about the art of the video as the piece of music, “Knightstown today unveils the video for his new single Eyes Open Wide. Directed and hand painted in the dark by Helen Plumb, “the clip is the first visual showing from the Brighton…
Well does it work for you? This five thing I mean? You never say that much these days, what are you thinking? How good were Yowie the other day, really must commit some words to electronic paper in terms of that one. Thrown so many things at the music chewer in the last few days,…
Five more art things, five more recommendations, mostly London things for that is where we (currently) are. Does this five things work for you? Or are you still busy sniggering about those damn rail tracks? How embarrassing was that? Disneyland? Dismaland? Are you still buzzing on those Piotr Uklański paintings, the layers of that big…
Robert Mongomery’s Parasolstice – Winter Light 2017 opens tonight at London’s Parasol Unit, if words on walls do it for you in terms of art then, you probably love the artist, he certainly has something to say, and he does say it with a certain style. Seems far too easy to me to just put a…
A quick thing today for today must be devoted to other things, “In the past year, Lana Del Rabies has become a fixture of the Arizona beat-oriented noise scene. Harsh walls of romantic sounds and driving industrial beats are accompanied by gut wrenching vocal performances and static laced video projections of her own creation. Now,…
Seven or so days on from all the rushing around of the Frieze weekend and the rest of the whatever the hell it all was, there were (and for that matter still are) a couple of rather decent art shows that deserve a mention before we finally move on and deal with the next things…
The excellent Dream Nails have a new release as well as a release party to celebrate that release, and here comes a taste of that release, all that energy released once more. Tourist is already one of the stand-out songs from their beautifully energetic live set, and as we said before, you really need to see…
Eoin opened a solo show in London last night, a collection of paintings, pieces on canvas – a painter, definitely a painter, Eoin (pronounced ‘Owen’) is a very painterly painter who currently lives and works in his native Ireland. Yes he does paint on walls, yes he does paint on there on the streets, but he…
Forget that piece we ran a couple of days ago, the world’s best American band have cancelled that dates that were coming up this month, they’re not coming to your town, they won’t help you party down.. Damn, we were rather looking forward to those gigs… “Unfortunately, the EU/UK arm of White Reaper’s tour was…
Yowie are in town tomorrow, this is very important, the town being London, Yowie being one of the finest bands on this particular planet (no pressure on them to deliver their awkwardly rewarding musical goods tomorrow then). Tomorrow is of course Friday, the venue is in Hackney, and Yowie are over from the U.S on…
White Reaper, the world’s best American band, are heading this way, the dates are further down the page, we’ve covered the band from Louisville, Kentucky, quite a bit on these pages this year, and to repeat some words, they sound like they’re from L.A in 1979 and yes, they probably are the world’s best American band…
Oh look there was a whole disorganised rant here about the banality of words and not eating octopus and what is with all the tedious sloganeering and meaningless words on canvas everywhere. We walked for miles and miles (with computerised smiles) during the last week, miles and miles around the vastness of Freeze, over those…
