By Kenny McMurtrie January 25, 2013 Album number two from the Elgin bred & Glasgow-based trio is a somewhat more measured affair than you’d have expected after the full-on sound of last October’s Body Mass Index ep. Things start off fairly fast with ‘SPMG’ & stay that way with one of the two ep songs that have graduated to album inclusion, ‘Overpriced’ (the other being the earlier work’s title track), but that pace is not consistently maintained throughout the rest of the album. ‘Broken Arm’, track number three, provides quite [...]
Hey guys! The sophomore album from the least cool band on the planet is really good! Cuddly Shark (whose eponymous debut I think I bought because they had ‘shark’ in their name?) hath returned on the excellent Armellodie Records (see their GFP "Favourite Five" feature here ) with ‘The Road To Ugly,’ and while it doesn’t feature anything quite as Bill & Teddingly immaculate as the refrain of “I heard you sing the worst song that I ever heard!” on “ Jamie Foxx on Later With Jools Holland ” [...]
There isn’t enough sheer unabashed indignation in rock music these days. Oh wait, Cuddly Shark have a new album? Sorry, I take it back. Glaswegian trio Cuddly Shark are another braw addition to the Armellodie roster, first appearing in 2009 with their pleasingly pissed self-titled debut which offered all the hooks and none of the bait. So wahey, they’re finally set to unleash a new LP by the name of ‘The Road To Ugly’ and our first taster of this is “Body Mass Index” which has a hook [...]
Cuddly Shark - Body Mass Index EP By Kenny McMurtrie Young Knives were the initial point of reference that came to mind when first playing these few sharp and energetic new tracks from the Highland trio, Cuddly Shark . Body Mass Index EP is their first release since 2010’s self titled album, and they’ve clearly expanded their musical horizons that little bit further from what was already a widely ranging palette. Is the title track a neat reversal of the stereotypical [...]

My name is Jim. Well, James, but I only ever get called that in something official, or when I'm in trouble. Never call me Jimmy.

Yes that is my cheesy mug up there, and yes I am ever so slightly tipsy. The photo was taken at last years Bloggers Delight night at the Flying Duck for Pin Up Nights. It wasn't my first foray into 'spinning tunes', however, it was the first time that I did it as Peenko. From what I can remember of the night it was really good fun, I don't recall making too many mistakes aside from dropping my pint. It was just after the first ever Ayetunes vs Peenko gig, so I had already had a few sherbets to calm [...]

Sunday Afternoon Music Break
Random tracks we stumbled upon recently through several sources. It's a nice mix of new tunes from relatively obscure bands.
