It will be quick jabs and lists around here until January. But this particular jab is set to land like a haymaker: A Long Time Listening , by Agent Fresco. It's an intoxicating cocktail of art rock, metal, baroque, and that Reykjavík je ne sais quois that makes the rest of us wonder what's in the water. Stream the title track below. Do enjoy.

Yeah, so we're in Reykjavik for Iceland Airwaves 2010. It's only reasonable that we use the oodles of free Wi-Fi to check in once a day and tell you about an awesome band we saw, how much crap food we've eaten and why our socks are wet again. Right? Right. You probably won't believe me [...]

Iceland. It's not the first place you think of going on holiday, let alone travelling to for a festival but that's just what we did for Iceland Airwaves 2009 . It wasn't even that cold – it just pissed it down. Obviously, apart from the fact we ate loads of fish, hotdogs and pizza (three of their national dishes) and drank loads of beer (a national drink), we saw some awesome bands that you'll probably never hear of again or even care about right now. Here are six that we liked. Care about [...]

This edition showcases 31 tracks from around the world. Once again I've gone ahead and [...]

The Global Battle Of The Bands World Finals will take place on 14 and 15 December 2009 at London Scala. Hosted by superhot MTV Thailand presenter Michele Waagaard , the event is judged by Glenn Matlock of Sex Pistols fame. Each band gets a measly 10 minutes to play their two songs. No prog, please. While Britain's entry into the Global Battle Of The Bands World Finals is a distinctly wet-sounding indie band from Brighton, Floors And Walls, you'll be pleased to hear that the rest of the world [...]
