The Look – Let It Go
27 August 2012 | aaamusic
Remember The Look? Didn’t think so. Chances are, however, you will remember (or at least recognise) their 1981 hit ‘I Am The Beat’ – their one and only hit. You see, The Look were a short-lived pop-rock band – one … Read More
Halfway To New York – What a Way To Go
27 August 2012 | aaamusicHere’s another dull pop-rock ballad from the simpering sensitive souls that make up Halfway To New York. As familiar as your own reflection, there really isn’t much excuse for the overwhelming blandness of this song. Check out the hopelessly … Read More
Gemma Hayes – Shock To My System
27 August 2012 | aaamusicSoft whispery vocals, tinkling bells and light acoustic guitar strumming all combine for this rather insipid affair, reminiscent of Snow Patrol at their most sugary. I can imagine it featuring at the dramatic climax of some dire romantic comedy, … Read More
Lisbee Stainton – There You Are
27 August 2012 | aaamusicFrom the start, I couldn’t help but feel a little put off by ‘There You Are’ as a contrived and bland pop ballad. Acoustic guitars, pianos, gentle and regular percussion, and that godawful “happy” synth whoosh and tinkle I … Read More

Groove Armada – Pull Up
13 August 2012 | aaamusicA stomping electro number from the reliable duo, seemingly influenced by old school hip-house and early nineties techno. The result is a glossy thumper of a rave track, given a contemporary sheen with its creative mix of ambient effects … Read More
Grizzly Bear – Yet Again
13 August 2012 | aaamusic
Premiered in UK on BBC1, here comes another track from the forthcoming Grizzly Bear’s album Shields. It’s been three years from the magic of Veckatimest, which projected the Brooklin-based four-piece into stardom. Yet Again confirms the talent for melodies … Read More
Strangers – Safe/Pain
13 August 2012 | aaamusicStrangers’ new single Safe/Pain, released via their own label Stranger Sounds, is a musically fantastic, woozy number which is rooted in lyrical realism. Reminiscent of Depeche Mode and The Big Pink for greatness of vision and pop sensibility, Strangers … Read More
