Negative Pegasus – Looming
17 September 2012 | aaamusicWhen it comes to music, you can’t trust what you read. Except this. Everything on this site should be taken as gospel, y’hear? Good. Anyway, when reading about a bands sound one should always be aware that things will … Read More
Street Party in Soho – Take Your Time
17 September 2012 | aaamusicNever underestimate the power of a great song. Street Party in Soho take all the necessary tropes associated with so-called Landfill Indie (regional accents, cheesewire guitars, danceable rhthyms, guitars strapped up to their chests) and manage to throw all … Read More
Mina Tindle – Bells
16 September 2012 | aaamusicMina Tindle, French pop-folk songwriter, shows grace and charm in abundance in her release Bells. Her new single, as the title swiftly suggests, echoes the sounds of nature in unexpected, frill-free ways. The angelic, all-embracing vocals suggest mysterious and … Read More
The Tuesday Club – The Dolly Dynamite EP
16 September 2012 | aaamusicThe Tuesday Club’s Dolly Dynamite EP is a creative force to be reckoned with. The band works on a beautiful vocal game of dialogue, and theirs is a brilliant mix of punk rock’s scariest moments and the versatile and … Read More

Blak Can – ‘Dark Daze’
16 September 2012 | aaamusicFor such a new band, with ever so little online coverage, I was surprised to see that Wolverhampton four-piece Blak Can have already managed to accumulate nearly 5,000 ‘likes’ on Facebook, and notch up 1,400 YouTube views of their … Read More
The Hickey Underworld – The Frog
16 September 2012 | aaamusicHaving briefly stumbled across The Hickey Underworld before, I know one thing: they are dark. Very dark. But unlike the recent UK dark rock scenes that draw on goth rock and Black Sabbath, The Hickey Underworld instead use an artsy … Read More
Lund Quartet – Lund Quartet
16 September 2012 | aaamusicHaving done some research, I find that Lund Quartet’s slick self-titled release is in actual fact their debut, which I am rather surprised by, given the level of accomplishment that simply oozes off it. This is smooth jazz, but … Read More
