Truck Fest 2014: Review

Truck Fest 2014: Review

Since its humble beginnings in 1998, Truck Festival has stayed exactly that – humble. It is a festival with a simple structure and an effortless feel about it. The festival is snuggled into the picturesque village of Steventon and resides on a farm, with cornfields fenced off around the main arena. This Oxfordshire festival revolves around the people and thrives on a sense of community, with even…

Elsie - Mad Chemistry

Elsie – Mad Chemistry

Elsie may be a relatively underground artist at the moment, but ‘Mad Chemistry’ is meant to be played out loud for all to here.

When we first heard ‘Wild One‘ we were captivated by the strong, raw vocals and the simplicity of the lyrics.

This time Elsie has really challenged herself with the earthy vocals dabbed over synths and R&B beats. The gentle cry of ‘laser beams shooting from me to you,…

Mac Demarco - Salad Days

Mac Demarco – Salad Days

Mac Demarco is most simply explained as the Bart Simpson of the music world, you’ll be hard pushed to find a review or an article that doesn’t mention the infamous incident featuring the naked artist & a single drumstick. It’s a combination which wouldn’t have seemed out of place in a Simpson’s episode with a cry of “EAT MY SHORTS”. It doesn’t leave much to the imagination. But that is only one…

Bombay Bicycle Club, The Hospital Club, London, 26/03/14

Bombay Bicycle Club, The Hospital Club, London, 26/03/14

The general consensus on Bombay Bicycle Club is the band has lacked definition. Known for an apparent lack of coherent evolution, the band has been penalised for their dalliance with the alt-folk movement of the late noughties.

Remove second album ‘Flaws’ from their discography and there is a much more logical line from their formative efforts to their current guise. Debut album ‘I Had the…
