Photo via A Silent Film's Facebook page Ironic name, isn't it? Choosing their name in reference to Charlie Chaplin's many silent films, A Silent Film is actually quite the opposite of silent; explosive synths, beautiful chords and a great vocal delivery from lead singer Robert Stevenson, A Silent Film creates melodically-driven songs, giving a nod of acknowledgement to similar bands such as, Coldplay and Snow Patrol. A Silent Film's songs do act out as a film in some ways; they gradually build up, sometimes exploding on impulse with guitars and drums, leaving [...]
Keyboard Choir | Photo credit: Daniel Paxton Realisations on the Sunday of Truck 2010 – 15 year-old girls were one of the biggest demographics at the festival for some reason, being asked by 17 year-old lads to buy booze from the bars for them makes me feel old, and waking up in a tent is as horrible as ever, starting my day with fitful stop-start sleep which would have made me madder than a sackful of angry badgers if it wasn't for my sunny disposition and having been at such a serene festival.

A Silent Film - You Will Leave A Mark A Silent Film släppte sin debutskiva redan 2008, men nu när den i år släpps i USA passar vi på tram7 att lyssna på dem för första gången. You Will Leave Am Mark är rock som skulle passa alldeles utmärkt live, lite så där stadiumaktigt, och enligt utsago var de typ 2008 ett av de mest spännande livebanden i UK. Döm själva, om ni inte hört ännu.
Exactly two years ago the seeds of this blog were formed when I went through a particularly bad break-up. March 28th has not been my lucky day for a while and has included a broken heart and a broken backseat window in my car. Today? Nothing happened, which makes me happy...and makes me realize that you can get over mostly anything when it comes to a particular someone. One day you just wake up and realize you haven't thought about that person in months and in turn would like to have the opportunity to take down the wall you've built [...]
When we launched The Pop Cop's competition to find the Best Scottish live music photo of 2009, what we didn't tell you was that we had lined up a very special guest to judge the entries - the world-renowned Glasgow-born photographer HARRY BENSON . The man is a legend. He got his first break when he travelled with The Beatles to America in 1964, taking some of the band's most iconic shots. Since then, Mr Benson has photographed every US president from Eisenhower [...]

A Silent Film - You Will Leave A Mark "If I have no religion I have no reason to be scared" It doesn't happen often, but sometimes a completely unknown and otherwise forgettable indie band releases a totally epic track. The band is A Silent Film from the UK, who I'm sure you probably haven't heard of. Their album is full of melodic piano pop that didn't really do anything for me, but this [...]
