“V.H.S (Vulgar Holy Spirit)” sleeve by Ulrich Von Trier Some people might say that falling in love at first sight is impossible. Some others will be convinced that you must listen to a song numerous times before you start taking a liking to it. In our case, it was just a lightning bolt straight out […]
MoreTV Static single cover There have been some harsh words said about Manchester and it`s musical heritage. I think it was Terry Christian that once wrote that there is no music scene in town, just cliques. In a tongue-in-cheek fashion Dave Haslam commented on the lack of women on local radio stations playlists by stating that no […]
MoreSlave 2 The Grind cover/collage Sometimes I think we don’t give young artists the credit they deserve. We see a person in their early 20`s and we think: they have their life ahead of them, they will develop their skills and become real musicians or singers or painters as the time goes by. It is […]
MoreOfficial bio: Belched out of the South Birmingham canals in 2015, Bad Girlfriend is a restless three piece with its roots firmly in garage punk tied together with a healthy dose of psychedelia. Combining in a cacophonous whirlwind of fuzz Bad Girlfriend is made up of raucously energetic shredding frontman Connor Hemming, underpinned by the […]

So far, she has released three singles (“Goddess”, “Ghost” and “Hollywood”) and three videos. The video to “Hollywood” debuted at midnight today and as you may have guessed, it is splendid. Great choreography, several costume […]
MoreWhen times get tough and dark, one can always rely on the arts to keep a mirror to the troubled society and the world we live in. Unstable markets? Conservative politicians in government? Right-wing agenda affecting the most vulnerable? We have had this before. Regan and Thatcher completely tanked the UK and US in the […]
MoreTW: flash/strobe lights in the video, mentions of sexual assault in the article. Kathleen Hanna once told Problem Patterns that if there was no backlash, then the band was not doing their job properly. So, before we continue with the review itself, let me put this additional trigger warning for all the gatekeepers that think […]
MoreBedsit is a strange beast. The first thing that hits you about the band is their powerful honesty. They don’t hide behind flowery words and PR hype. They will bare their very soul to you if they can, to show where they come from. They will even let you hear the early demos written on […]
