Festival chic, baby... 1. Whilst Neil Young may have rocked the Pyramid's free world, Ray Davies may well be the best songsmith of the pre-Albarn generation... 2. Coxon's certainly the unsung hero of Blur . Coffee and TV was absolutely splendid. 3. Vodka & Skittles is perhaps the best alcoholic concoction since fermentation began. 4. Photographers are ignorant, photo pits insufferable. And disposable Lomography cameras aren't ideal for festivals... 5. There's no such thing as a VIP [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News It just isn't Glastonbury without mysterious gaps in the schedule; the unfilled slots that breed rumour after rumour after rumour. Supergrass offshoot the Hot Rats (singer Gaz Coombes and drummer Danny Goffey) played to a rammed Park Stage -- partly because of rumours Arctic Monkeys and Glastonbury favourites Muse were supposed to be playing. Still, spirited covers of Elvis Costello 's 'Pump It Up' and the Beat 's 'Mirror in the Bathroom' fit the [...]
I had been working on another post but this is much more important. Hopefully can get the other post up later. As everyone knows by now, Michael Jackson has passed away from cardiac arrest. I just heard recently he wanted to get into better shape to do that 50 show stint in London was it? Perhaps the exercise was too much? I'm sure the truth will come out in the next few days or weeks as to what caused this. Although I haven't cared much for his music the past few decades I'll admit that I used to [...]
As I cycled home from work tonight my neighbours were just finishing up a barbeque that was made possible by the excellent Irish weather. I politely accepted their generous offer of a glass of wine and took a seat beside them. "Did you hear that Michael Jackson died?" was not the first question that I expected to be asked. I had seen a comment on Facebook earlier that alluded to his death, but I didn't pay it any mind. Another neighbour came out of her house holding a bottle of Bud in one hand and an Off The Wall CD [...]
Mighty Mike - Human in St. Petersburg [ mp3 ] Supergrass - St. Petersburg The Killers - Human Mighty Mike is a genius or he is trying to trick us and the Killers really play together with the Supergrass this is one of the most natural sounding mashes we heard in ages APC TOP 10 for sure the equally brilliant photo was taken by Alexey Petrosian
Gaz Coombes and Danny Goffey of Supergrass have teamed up with famed producer Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, Beck, Pavement) to form The Hot Rats , a supergroup side project of dirty garage rock proportions. The trio is already booked to play a series of festival dates in the UK, including Glastonbury, Reading and Leeds, and Bestival. Meanwhile, The Hot Rats are currently recording their debut record, a covers album, which will feature songs by Gang of Four, Sex Pistols, The Kinks, and Roxy Music. The record is due in the fall. Despite this [...]
I'm delving back into the archives for today's post. Here's a session from Supergrass recorded when they were about 12. Or something like that. Bursting onto the scene full of youthful vim and vigor. The musical equivalent of Warner Brothers' Tazmanian Devil. A whirlwind of energy and enthusiasm wrapped up in 3 minute(ish) bursts of punky pop. Or poppy punk depending on how you prefer it. And in some ways, the media have never truly allowed them to break free of that image. Regardless of the music they've gone on to produce, they're always [...]
Today we'll travel back to the mid-1990s and remember some of the biggest Britpop groups that brought British alternative rock into the mainstream and formed the backbone of a larger British cultural movement called Cool Britannia . If this doesn't ring a bell, it was a movement developed as a reaction against various musical and cultural trends in the late 1980s and early 1990s, particularly the grunge phenomenon from the United States. In the wake of the musical invasion into the United Kingdom of American grunge bands (in particular Nirvana ), new British groups [...]
Det er sjældent, at femte single fra et debutalbum er nummeret der skaber det virkelige gennembrud. Sådan var det nu engang for Supergrass, der inden Alright havde udsendt både Caught By The Fuzz , Mansize Rooster , Lose It og Lenny fra "I Should Coco". Alright røg ind som nummer to på den engelske hitliste, Supergrass' højeste singlehitliste placering til dato. Historierne om videoen til nummeret går på, at Steven Spielberg kontaktede bandet efter at have set videoen, og spurgte om ikke bandet ville være med i et [...]
Return of Inspiration MP3 File
Set a mere 65 kilometres away from Mr. Eavis' Worthy Farm, with every last race horse in the stable Cheltenham Racecourse is set to open the starting blocks for its fifth annual bash and this year's event draws predominantly on the past in its quest into the future. Surrealist mess-head survivors Super Furry Animals head up the Friday night, showcasing recent return to form record Dark Days/ Light Years, proving themselves to still be light years ahead of skinny jeans and floppy fringes in a kaleidoscopic land where measures of time and space have been dismantled. They are joined by [...]

Outside of the chaos of 6th Street at a little cafe that had just opened, Bethany and Joshua met up with two Austin legends. The first was a delicious breakfast taco, which I highly recommend everybody finds a chance to eat at some point in their life. The second legend was Fastball singer Miles Zuniga . We talked to the him about the industry, what they have been up to for the last five years and their new album, Little White Lies . Bethany, PopWreckoning: You guys have had kind of [...]
Hace tiempo que no le dedicábamos atención a las incorporaciones al festival BBk Live , por lo que ha sido toda una sorpresa encontrarme con nombres tan interesantes . La cita en Bilbao cuenta ya con unos cuantos nombres jugosos, además de aquella noticia revelación que daba como primer gran grupo confirmado a Depeche Mode. Especialmente interesante parecen sábado y domingo. Lástima que me pille bien lejos. De momento la cosa queda así: 9 de julio: [...]

It's been a longish week, but believe me this weekend is going to be worse. I am offering up my poor old Volvo for sale, which breaks my embittered little alcoholic heart, so it does. I am going to miss that car, we've had some wonderful times pottering about in her and I am going to miss the silly old girl, really I am. This is a joint podcast, seeing as how I was in the pub with Dylan and the poor whelp seemed to have nowhere else to go, I invited him back to the house to [...]

Well, as DC pointed out on Five Friday Fatwas , the 90s revival is not quite upon us yet. It's both totally inevitable and somewhat due, so it will be here sooner rather than later, but for the time being it has yet to entirely arrive. So in anticipation of the inevitable, I thought I might just make a podcast which partly tried to anticipate the revisionism and partly talked just a little about what I myself might remember when the 90s revival hits full swing in a couple of years. I wouldn't describe myself [...]
