My Top Ten Albums of 2019: #10 Eton Alive – Sleaford Mods

22/12/201920/04/2020 Duane Weatherall Leave a comment

“Funny” albums are normally a bit shit, but Sleaford Mods, a duo from Nottingham who create a hybrid of electronic, punk and rap, continue to defy the odds, both pointing fun at the world around them and themselves. There’s politics there but not on a national scale, as Policy Cream tackles such heavy topics as […]

PSYCHODRAMA – Dave

22/09/201920/04/2020 Duane Weatherall Leave a comment

People who have been reading this blog for a while may remember that I experimented with doing a regular thing on a Friday dubbed “#NewMusicFridays”, it was a short lived experiment that I only kept up for two weeks but I never wrote off the idea of writing more under the category of music, and […]

Mind Games: Men, Gaming and Mental Health

28/07/201920/04/2020 Duane Weatherall 6 Comments

I’ve been sitting on this post since around the time I started writing regularly, but its something I’ve been struggling to put together, there’s been alot of self doubt in regards to me actually writing this as I’m really, really concerned that my writing ability isn’t at a level that I feel I can do […]

#NewMusicFriday Week 14 : Circa Waves, The Heavy and The Dogs

05/04/201920/04/2020 Duane Weatherall Leave a comment

I missed last week as there wasn’t anything on my Spotify Release Radar that I really wanted to share. First choice is The Dogs’ cover of the Roy Orbison classic “I Drove All Night” (Cyndi Lauper released it first but it was originally written for and recorded by Orbison, his version wasn’t released until after […]

#NewMusicFriday: Week 12 2019

22/03/201920/04/2020 Duane Weatherall Leave a comment

I’ve been posting tracks I discover on Spotify on my Twitter account most Fridays but I figure I could compile them each time into a regular post on here starting from this week. So, without further ado, here’s Week 12 2019: I actually didn’t really get much of a chance to listen to any music […]

#1 IDLES “Joy as an Act of Resistance”

30/12/201820/04/2020 Duane Weatherall 1 Comment

Where to start with this!? I genuinely think this is one of the most important records of our time as the Bristolians shine the spotlight on subjects such as toxic masculinity (in SAMARITANS) and immigration (Danny Nedelko) whilst assaulting your senses and making you listen. Just a brilliant, brilliant record that everyone should listen to.

#4 Slaves “Acts of Fear and Love”

27/12/201820/04/2020 Duane Weatherall Leave a comment

Slaves are one of my favourite bands right now and it feels like the duo can do very little wrong. I’ll admit i was worried by “Cut and Run” but I think that the band would appreciate the opinion that the track is a “grower not a shower”. Lead track “The lives they wish they […]

#5 Tonight Alive “Underworld”

“Temple” absolutely blew me away on this, as catchy as Taylor Swift, with a positive body image polical message and a voice like Paramores Hayley Williams, this is some excellent female led Pop Punk
