With Oxegen off the festival schedule for at least one summer, there was a danger the Electric Picnic line-up would lose some of its more heavy and experimental acts in favour of the usual stadium fodder. Thankfully, that appears not to be the case, with Texan post rock juggernaut Explosions in the Sky leading a small but formidable band of left field rock acts. Here's the pick of the bunch: BATS ‘Uncompromising’ is an oft-abused word in the world of heavy rock, but it’s hard to argue with the description of Dublin [...]

Part three of my random post where I get two different singles and compare and contrast for the craic! Preachers Son - Come On Dublin rockers Preachers Son released a rich deep debut album in 2010 and they've followed it with a new single 'Come On'. It's a track that is a short spunky rocking tune which like the accompanying video doesn't take itself seriously at all. It's high on entertainment value and showcases Brian's fantastic vocals! It's three minutes [...]
Il ritorno dopo due anni a Roma e al Circolo degli Artisti dei God is an Astronaut alla fine è stato atteso da molti appassionati di musica post-rock ed non solo. A distanza di poco meno di 2 anni, il gruppo irlandese arriva nella capitale con un componente in più, il tastierista Jamie Dean , ad arricchire la presenza sul palco. Sembra essere un innesto di poco conto, visto che le tastiere sono già presenti nella band, suonate tra l'altro da tutti e tre gli elementi. Ed invece questo dettaglio fa capire come nel [...]
Fue corto, un concierto demasiado corto (apenas 80 minutos) para una banda con suficiente repertorio –cinco discos- a la hora de alargar su presencia sobre el escenario. Había ganas de más, pero la cita no supo a poco porque los God is an Astronaut firmaron un gran directo durante la noche del pasado jueves en la sala Arena de Madrid . La banda irlandesa realizó un acto de entrega artística y personal sobre el escenario, ofreciendo un exquisito sonido y esa soberbia fluidez instrumental tan suya, ese no se [...]

Actuarán este jueves 1 en Madrid (Sala Arena) y al día siguiente en Barcelona (Music Hall). Las entradas para verles cuestan 20 y 24 euros. El grupo formado por los gemelos Kinsella (Torsten [...]

Every fortnight I'm going to share the new music I find with you in a compilation Mix post. This is number four and features some particularly good bands! ---------------- Wiltz Wiltz is a fine Wicklow three piece instrumental post-rock band who have put their debut self-titled EP onto bandcamp for free downloading!

The actual quality of a good show is something I measure in time. I mean, the really good ones, stick with me with tiny impressions on the long run. For example, I remember exactly the type of chills and that particular feeling I got when I heard God Is an Astronaut 's Fragile live, about 3 months ago. Hell, I still get those chills every time I listen to the song. ( Fragile by God Is [...]
Last week I described Cork XSW 2011 as my dream festival line-up and it did not fail to impress in any way. I loved everything from the line-up to the surroundings to the atmosphere and charm. I also loved how I got to hear possibly the best voice in Ireland ...... There really can't be a better location for a festival. Set in the Liss Ard estate the main stage took it's place downhill from the Liss Ard house with [...]
Bloody Hell, Damnation Festival have only gone and snuck out three very interesting line-up additions last night while we were off grilling Download Festival’s head-honcho, Andy Copping (which you’ll get to see next week). Godflesh, God Is An Astronaut and Altar of Plagues? Damnation Festival, you’re spoiling us! First up, full respect must go out [...]
