Two tracks about eating lady cake for you! It’s very on trend! ♫ Christina – Woohoo (MP3) I know the album’s got completely slated but I’m still COMPLETELY obsessed with this track. The computer game style vocal effect on the ‘Woohoo’ thrills me as does the Nicki Minaj. Her contribution to the track is minimal [...]

♫ Best Coast – Boyfriend (MP3) At the forefront of the lo-fi dreamy 60s style pop movement is Best Coast (he says with AUTHORITY haha). When I first heard this, I was convinced she was singing about a girl and was completely thrilling over it (in the way that anytime any alternative music offers anything [...]

THRILLING EVENTAGE in the shape of MORE CRACKERS PLEASE! I secondarily wanted to post about it to show off that I drew/designed the flyer and Kathleen Hanna looked at it and she said it was ‘so beautiful’ – haha! But primarily, it’s going to be an A-MAZING time. Tickets are literally seconds from selling out [...]
There’s something I find bit (erm) unloveable about Kanye — I think it’s ever since I saw him live and there was a cringe-to-death drawn out theatrical rant praising god and jesus and stuff.

As another new Manic Street Preachers album looms on the horizon (Postcards From A Young Man is out in September) and I find myself yet again having to defend this once so vital and fiercely intelligent band to haters, I thought I might as well just get it out here once and for all. So [...]
♫ Alexandra Burke – Start Without You (MP3) This summer bang-a-langa was brought to my attention recently by T-Bop of Unskinny Bop. I played it once, thought it sounded a bit like Annie and then listened again and again and again. I’m completely addicted – as I’m sure you will be too! ENJOY!
Gene Pitney — Town Without Pity (swoon!)
Amazing scenes of surprise gayness in Male Bonding — Year’s Not Long video. Is this the year of alternative gay men? LETS HOPE SO!
♫ The Nightblooms — Crystal Eyes (MP3) Dreamy grungey lo-fi from the 90s which sounds like it could have been produced by femme-fronted-lofi-noise-makers of current days (bar a few 90s guitar extravagances early in the track). Actually, this sound is atypical of the rest of the Nightbloom’s music unfortunately — ‘why?’ is the question I [...]
