Reverend And The Makers – @reverend_makers
17 June 2012 | aaamusicIt would be so very easy to be cynical about this album. Two albums in and Jon “The Reverend” McClure doesn’t so much risk killing his career with this electronic influenced “dance” album as recognise that his band never … Read More
Blood Sport – Fruits: The TDT Recordings
17 June 2012 | aaamusic
Fruits: The TDT Recordings is an interesting rhythm offering, somewhat nostalgic for days of music long gone, kicking off with the impassioned opening track Palomar and establishing itself as a curiosity amongst the underground music scene. It’s indulgently drum and … Read More
The Audition – Chapter 2
12 June 2012 | aaamusicChicago pop-rockers The Audition’s latest effort Chapter 2 is a six-track EP sporting all of the in-your-face power that you expect from a pop-punk release. In an ever-expanding and ever-popular genre, it is increasingly difficult to stand out, but … Read More
Turnpike Glow – Inflatable Optimism
12 June 2012 | aaamusicTurnpike Glow are a curious little indie four-piece. They were formed in Italy by Schiena and La Mela, and decided to move to London (where they completed their lineup) – perhaps realising that their indie-pop sound has quite a … Read More

Shoes And Socks Off – Miles Of Mad Water
11 June 2012 | aaamusicShoes And Socks Off is much more than a side-project. When Toby Hayes, then bassist of Meet Me In St Louis, started this adventure, the songs of SASO where nothing more than bedroom sketches, dreamy escapes in his inner … Read More
Reverend and the Makers – The Wrestler
11 June 2012 | aaamusicThis is an immediately recognisable Reverend and the Makers track. Simple but catchy harmonies, densely packed lyrics delivered in wry Sheffield inflections, a forceful driving beat and a self-assured intelligence in tone are all elements familiar from their previous … Read More
Knifeworld – Clairvoyant EP
11 June 2012 | aaamusicChaotic and pleasantly odd, this EP from Knifeworld isn’t exactly the definition of polished songwriting, but its originality and eccentricity does at least have a certain charm. Opening track Clairvoyant Fortnight is indicative of the messy sound the band … Read More
In Remission – The Great and Shallow EP
11 June 2012 | aaamusicIn Remission’s six-track EP The Great and Shallow explores a mixture of pop-punk and post-rock.
