The Singular Adventures of Phil Wilson
I figured Phil would become another one of Creations maverick songwriters, a new Nikki Sudden perhaps.

 

The June Brides Songbook
The June Brides where strong, often quoted for their anthem like quality but its the personal, often bitter and almost world weary lines that stand out for me.

 

The Bats at the National Grid (Interview)
The Bats talk about their new album (arriving in Sept 05) and more besides.

 

The Chills - Low Light, the "Standy By" EP
The Chills have a variety of tempos and moods to their repartee but specialise in the bone chillers, the atmospheric, melancholy, mildly psychedelic songs and also the part punk, part garage band, organ-driven rockers.

 

The Loft - shine like gold
Astor vocals of despair are plaintive, almost self depreciating. This single highlights The Loft's sound, a jangle but with a gritty under belly.

 

The Bats- and here is.."North By North"
The Bats rhythm is driving. Not fast but a steady drive over a country road, a small bump here and meandering bend there, that distinctive rhythm.

 

The Go Betweens - Oceans Apart & Glasgow May 11th 2005
.. the thing that stikes me about the Go Betweens as they lauched into the encores of this show and finish with "People Say", is that The Go Betweens could have picked 20 or so songs from another 200 and it would still have been a great show.

 

Biff Bang Pow - Unweildly as a cat with hob nailed boots on
Classic beat pop dragged through punk, post punk and the 1979 UK mod revival, distilled into something different, rough and ready, more attitude that eptitude.
