The Cast of Cheers – Animals
23 April 2012 | aaamusicI’ve never heard of The Cast of Cheers before, but they officially have my new favourite band name. What a relief then that I also really like their new track Animals. It has a lively and fresh sound, built … Read More
Breathe Out – Champion
23 April 2012 | aaamusicChampion is the new single from London’s Breathe Out. The band interestingly came about after James Goodhead suffered a surprising cardiac arrest in 2010. In hospital, James and Alex Clegg shared music together and discovered a mutual creativity which … Read More
Weird Shapes – Clouds
23 April 2012 | aaamusicClouds is the new single from Stock-On-Tees band Weird Shapes. The song opens in a melodic, spacey and dare I say, almost cloudy style from the guitars, synth and overlapped vocals. As the song continues this fades out to … Read More
The Robbie Boyd Band – I Won’t Let You Go
22 April 2012 | aaamusicYou know that advert where some impossibly photogenic Man/Woman/Animal does something cute/quirky/adorable, in a park/field/forest on an impossibly bright summers day? Well, you probably don’t considering I made it up but Houston, we’ve found the soundtrack. Mumford and Sons … Read More
Taffy – So Long

19 April 2012 | aaamusicThe elements for a Levellers single are in place, high energy violins and folk instruments backed up by a full band. Indeed, having only heard a limited amount of their previous hits, I would have initially said that this … Read More
Daniel Land & The Modern Painters – Eyes Wide Shut
16 April 2012 | aaamusicDaniel Land is quoted as a man that loves three-minute pop and endless, abstract noise. For the most part of their discography, Daniel Land & The Modern Painters subscribed to the latter. Now, it seems, the band have turned … Read More
Frank Turner – I Still Believe / Somebody to Love
15 April 2012 | aaamusicI think it’s safe to say that Winchester born Punk Rock singer-songwriter Frank Turner has, to borrow a tired rock ‘n’ roll cliché that he’d probably despise, “Made it”. This, a re-release of 2010’s lead single to his Rock … Read More
Being There – 17
10 April 2012 | aaamusicNineties, welcome back. The C86’s cassette could definitely include the new single 17 from London band Being There. Too bad this is 2012. The power-pop guitar, that reminds the good old R.E.M. together with contemporary Pains Of Being Pure … Read More
Amanda Mair – Sense
9 April 2012 | aaamusicAmanda Mair is a Swedish musician who grew up living with her parents who ran a bakery. She certainly has a voice to fit the part of a young baker’s daughter: sweet and charming. She released her debut single, … Read More
