The Beatsteaks – Jane Became Insane
16 July 2010 | aaamusic
In case it passed you by, there is a band from Germany called The Beatsteaks and recently they released an album which I would without a moment’s hesitation say is in the top 5 releases of 2010 … Read More
Beat the Radar – By the Sea/Miracles
13 July 2010 | aaamusicI really don’t want to make a habit of this but I find myself agreeing with what The Daily Mirror has to say. The accursed tabloid said “Pucker up, Indie Rock, here comes a kiss of life.” And listening … Read More
Mark Ronson & The Business International – Bang, Bang, Bang
13 July 2010 | aaamusic‘Bang, Bang, Bang’, the new single by Mark Ronson & The Business International is a phenomenally resounding triumph of style over substance. Shimmying an acoustic synth line simultaneously underneath and over some heavily processed vocals, as well as rapping … Read More
Standard Fare – Philadelphia
13 July 2010 | aaamusicRight. I think we’re all in agreement. Long distance relationships are bullshit. The whole, fundamental point of a relationship is that the two parties see one another on a regular basis, enjoy their company (interpret that how you wish), … Read More
The Fanclub – Madman/Bitter Boys and Graceless Girls

8 July 2010 | aaamusicBlack Daniel’s latest effort, Ivy, is an interesting track. Combining elements of electronica and indie whilst continually jumping from guitar to heavy beats to layered vocals means Ivy is far too interesting and energetic to be classed as pop, … Read More
Tokyo Police Club – Wait Up (Boots of Danger)
8 July 2010 | aaamusicThe first single to be released of Tokyo Police Club’s latest full-length album, Champ, Wait Up (Boots Of Danger) is as catchy and upbeat as anything you’d expect from this band. Successfully combining elements of indie and pop seems … Read More
Eliza Doolittle – Pack Up
5 July 2010 | aaamusicWell this is a first. What we have here is a young English girl with a sumptuous soul voice, who sings in her own accent. She doesn’t sound American. That is unprecedented, and I may overuse that word, but … Read More
Post War Years – White Lies
5 July 2010 | aaamusicLet me pose you a question: have you ever wondered what an indie-influenced band would sound like if it had a glitchy hip-hop undertone? While you contemplate that, the music industry will most likely coin the subgenre “glitch-hop”, and … Read More
