Criminally underrated electropop outfit, Gossip is now streaming their upcoming new album, A Joyful Noise, in it's entirety on the band's official website. Go listen! The album, due everywhere May 22nd via Columbia Records, was produced by pop mastermind Brian Higgins (Kylie Minogue, Pet Shop Boys, Girls Aloud) and serves as the follow up to 2009's Music For Men. The album's lead
I am sure that most of you are already aware that the inaugural longlist for the Scottish Album of the Year Award was announced this week and I think it's safe to say that the list took quite a few people by surprise. To be honest with you I don't really know what I was expecting, but from the 20 albums that made the long list there are a few that I was genuinely surprise to see on there and a whole lot more that I had plain old never heard of. I guess it's the eclectic nature [...]
You say Bananarama! We say Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat! Yes, Chemikal's dynamic duo are back with a subdued take on Bananarama's 1983 hit (and not a wrench or Mack truck in sight). The track's taken from the pair's latest EP (also entitled Cruel Summer, and also features the tracks "Box it Up", "Man of [...]
Talking of CB-TV, here's a small treat for a Wednesday morning - Bananarama getting a grilling (of the light, flash variety) from "young journalists" shepherded by Anneka Rice: -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch
Rayko isn't a difficult artist to pigeon-hole, at this moment in time at least. He's a classic man with a mean penchant for creating gorgeous edits of old school disco, funk and boogie tracks and given the huge back catalogue of music to choose from - it's one of the best audible playgrounds around. Rayko's edits inject a colourful dose of life back into songs that may be getting dusty in your old vinyl collection, or even your parents...

What a nice start to the weekend Ireland beating Australia was, I really didn't see that one coming. Then I guess that very few folk would have predicted that result, hopefully we can finally see a northern hemisphere team going on to do something at this World Cup, although I am not sure I could quite stomach a victory for our neighbours south of the border. As I am currently battling to write this post while my daughter attacks my laptop here's this weeks covers from Aidan Moffat and his take on some classic pop songs... [...]
Soon enough review stalker Dave returns from his extended holiday in the sun. Before he gets his blogging groove back on I have one more guest posting of summer playlist tones for y'all. Here's 4 more that reflect upon the time of year. Something old: Appears the unusual heat dome has broken and the temps are now near 90 degrees in most parts of the country. That's a bit of relief after the sweltering 100 degree dog days of last week. Some of that was broken [...]
shocking blue - "love buzz" (download) Dutch rock band Shocking Blue had a knack for writing songs. So much so, that a couple of their songs ended up being covered by well known bands later on. "Love Buzz," for example, was covered by Nirvana on their Bleach record, and Shocking Blue 's hit "Venus" was later covered by Bananarama . This LP, At Home was released in 1969. buy

Whoever knew that in 2011 there would be a solid gold news hook upon which we could hang embedding Bananarama's Rough Justice video? That's Justin Webb's dad, Peter Woods, sat in his post-newsdesk career having his studio invaded by the mid-period politicised Narns. I was never sure if they meant that one of the starving children on the streets were disappearing every week, or if some children were starving but the disappearing children were being drawn from a wider pool of all children. The video is, of course, a fantasy. [...]
Pop music veteran Siobhan Fahey of Shakespears Sister and Bananarama sat for a photo shoot, and we discussed the recording of her new album, Songs From The Red Room (due to release in the U.S. on September 21st), as well as her rebel girl relationship with music. I met Fahey late in the afternoon on a fully-cooked 107-degree steamer in New York City's Lower East Side. She looked cool and glamorous as she sat in the window booth at Fontana's, cosmetics casually laid out next to a light sushi lunch. With her red Lipstick on a [...]
You decide. MP3: Cruel Summer by Ace of Base MP3: Cruel Summer by Bananarama
It's been a long time since there's been any news on Shakespears Sister , a musical project birthed from the brain of former Bananarama member Siobhan Fahey , but, hey, a decade long hiatus is nothing in the grand scheme of things, right? That's right, on September 21 there will be a NEW Shakespears Sister album entitled Songs from the Red Room . This is super exciting news, but what may be more exciting is talk of a soon-to-be-announced fall tour.
