By Seraphina Lotkhamnga The music of the Duke Spirit has always had a certain moxie — "The Step and the Walk," if you will, to name-check a song off the band's second album "Neptune." On Thursday night at the Roxy, the London quintet exuded a swagger befitting its tunes, barreling into West Hollywood to play an explosive set worthy of the Sunset Strip's rock star-laden past. From the moment singer Leila Moss and company strutted on to stage to catapult themselves into the brooding bass line of "The Step," [...]
Top pre-New Year's Eve places to rock it tonight: ► London five-piece the Duke Spirit [previewed here], joined by L.A. trio Crash Kings and Orange County's Free Lions , visit the Roxy. Above, one of four sessions Liela Moss and crew did for Nic Harcourt's LiveBuzz [watch all of them here ]. ► The Growlers headline the Echo, with Grand Elegance and Gantez Warrior supporting. Not to mention: Terminal Twilight at the Satellite (f/k/a Spaceland); [...]
The Duke Spirit's scorching soul-rock has always been good for a knockout punch (or three). But just because the London quintet's new album is titled "Bruiser," don't think it's a facsimile of their first two albums, "Cuts Across the Land" (2005) and "Neptune" (2008.) "Bruiser," recorded in L.A. with Andrew Scheps, is a more raw-boned affair, with frontwoman Liela Moss's icy-hot vocals skittering across brawny guitar-bass-drum lines. Moss and bandmates Toby Butler, Luke Ford, Olly Betts and Marc Sollis have been busy preparing for the release. They recently teased it with the "Kusama" EP, featuring "Everybody's Under [...]

Tons of quality tunes and videos pass under the bridge here due to constraints of time, energy and, frankly, a lack of any discernible system to sort the H-T-A inbox into some semblance of order. One possible step towards resolution is this. What you're reading now. A summary. Every Sunday. As with Ronseal , it will do exactly what it says on the tin and attempt to round up as many gems from the week as I find time to [...]

+ Duke Spirit Edit this setlist | More Black Rebel Motorcycle Club setlists
Rock City haven’t got the stage times up for tonight’s concert but their website indicates three bands tonight so by getting there around 7.30 we expect to miss Dark Horses but we should be in time for the Duke Spirit, who I’m keen to see. Not so. Leila Moss is just finishing up with their last track as we arrive. Only two bands tonight and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club on at 8.00. Oh well, at least not long to wait. Thankfully the band have made it up from last night’s show in Portsmouth. I had a feeling a [...]
