Guillemots are pretty super-awesome, aren't they? I'm glad we're in agreement. While the band's currently recording their third guaranteed-to-be-pretty-awesom e album, the cute bastard mad genius frontman Fyfe Dangerfield is in the process of doing his own solo album debut. The reported name is "Fly Yellow Moon" and what minimal signs there are speculatingly point towards a 2010 release date, perhaps even early on in the year. Why bring this rumour-mongering up? Because there's a leak. Or a "leak". Mr Dangerfield is being rather coy. The song is called "She Needs Me" and those [...]

Rock City isn't full and the balcony is closed for added intimacy. We head up the staircase and get a good spot, perched at the top, like, well like a guillemot or should I say guiLLeMoT, as they prefer to write it. First though, London's Royworld and their mainstream pop rock, promoting their debut album 'Man In The Machine'. It's a terrible name and none of the band are even called Roy, in fact what's worse is the lead singer is called Rod, so why not Rodworld? Can't be any worse, or can it? Or Robworld after the [...]
