If you've ever felt cheated out of a brighter future The Milk's new single Every Time We Fight , due on June 24 is the song for you. Full of the bands adrenalising soul sound, impassioned vocals and irresistible hooks it also features a video shot in a working mens club in Dagenham by Inbetweeners star (and long-time fan of The Milk) James Buckley. The film has a back story of a factory closing and how the people then come together as a community. Buckley himself plays the worker who rallies them together. Written at [...]
The Seedy Seeds are always busy touring or creating new music for us to consume. Seriously, it seems like they always have something new up their sleeves. Well, they participated in a pretty cool collaboration with The Winter Sounds to cover a great Neutral Milk Hotel song "King of Carrot Flowers Pt.1." The video comes to us from Off The Avenue, a web TV series produced by North Avenue Studios Inc. More videos from Off The Avenue here . The Seeds did another song, "Ethel" for Off [...]
Like London's Great Escape, Camden Crawl serves as a showcase for the next crop of up and coming artists in the industry. Let Festival Season 2012 begin
Tornano di nuovo, pronti per l'estate i dj tedeschi Milk &Sugar ovvero Mike Milk (Michael Kronenberger) e Steven Sugar (Steffen Harding) . Benchè attivi dal 1993, si erano fatti conoscere al grande pubblico soprattutto l'anno scorso remixando "Hey Na Na Na", un vecchio successo dei belgi Vaya Con Dios del 1990, cui fece seguito il campionamento di "Pata Pata" di Miriam Makeba del 1967. Remix che sono diventati due tormentoni assoluti. Adesso arriva " Via con me (It's Wonderful)" , successo di Paolo Conte [...]
The cold wet streets of Camden are awash with drunken hordes tonight, but that's just a typical weekend here. Thrown into that mix is a bunch of wristband wearing music seekers who are staggering their way between the pubs, clubs and venues of north London's pleasure streets. Yes, you know it can only be the Camden Crawl . The legendary multi-venue multi-gig festival may be the oldest swinger in town these days, imitated by many others that have arguably [...]
This is our third preview post on Brighton's Great Escape 2012 which takes place between 10th-12th May. Today we turn our attention towards Saturday's activities and three further recommendations for bands to see. With the likes of We Are Scientists, Africa Express Sound System and Madeon occupying some of the bigger venues, there's also plenty of interest at the smaller shows, particularly during the day. Of particular note is the recent addition of ex X-Factor star Aiden Grimshaw on Saturday. It [...]
Nathan Jonson aka Hrdvsion, pronounced "hard vision", is a Canadian composer especially interested in electronic music with an experimental streak. After releasing his 'Right And Tight' EP on DJ Hell's Gigolo Records he blazed up Boiler Room, played Berghain (listen to the set below) and did some amazing remix work for Crosstown Rebels, Phil Kieran [...]
Oggi è il giorno della Pasqua di Resurrezione e il nostro blog, come sempre accade durante le festività sceglie di celebrarle in musica. La nostra scelta è ricaduta quest'anno su un bellissimo brano di pace, ovvero "Hallelujah" degli israeliani Gali Atari & Milk Honey , brano vincitore dell'edizione 1979 ospitata in casa, a Gerusalemme. Li vediamo però in una esibizione durante l'interval act dell'edizione 1980, svoltasi a L'Aia, in Olanda, dopo la rinuncia proprio di Israele. La canzone è in ebraico, q ui c'è il testo in lingua inglese . Come sempre il nostro augurio è che [...]
" Pluck all your silly strings and bend all your notes for me, and soft silly music is meaningful, magical, the movements were beautiful... " - Jeff Mangum , Oh Comely It's somewhat ironic that a few hours previous to Jeff Mangum's sold-out solo show at the Union Chapel in London I was trying to recruit a new writer for the site on the pretense that " live reviews are really easy to knock-up" . I say it's ironic because I now find myself sat [...]
Já tem um tempinho que estamos de olho no The Milk , e tudo graças à explosiva "(All I Wanted Was) Danger" e toda a sua aura de perigo e influências soul que nos fizeram lembrar imediatamente de uma Amy Winehouse versão masculina. Os rapazes de Essex podem ter demorado, mas 2012 finalmente verá o lançamento do seu primeiro disco, e se as canções que já conhecemos são alguma indicação, a espera será totalmente válida. A data de lançamento do disco ainda é um pouco vaga, mas o primeiro single oficial, "Broke Up [...]
Evolution Festival , held between Newcastle upon Tyne and Gateshead, has, appropriately enough, evolved considerably since it was first held as a free, 1-day event in 2005. Now in its eighth year, the event boasts a 2-day, two-stage line-up, held in the stunning location of the Newcastle and Gateshead quaysides. The event is no longer free, but at a mere £35 for the weekend, it represents fantastic, inflation-busting value. This year the event is held over the Sunday and Monday of the June Bank Holiday weekend 3-4 June: there surely can be no finer [...]
We've been trawling through a whole mass of videos recently and here are some of our favourites assembled for your viewing and listening pleasure. First up is Crybaby's video for excellent debut I Cherish The Heartbreak More Than The Love That I Lost , shot in the gloomy surrounds of Bristol hospital and is a noirish loveletter to the exquisite pain of a broken heart. a Hotly tipped Essex 4-piece The Milk's new single Broke Up The Family is [...]
*** NEW MUSIC - Hawaii born/Los Angeles based singer and songwriter Elina is offering her second album 'Mesmerized' as a free d/l via NoiseTrade - check it out! - ..and...
It's Friday. You made it. And we have the perfect reward for you, so take a three-minute break from whatever you're pretending to work on and have a listen to this new outfit out of London. Unless you're just blatantly planning out your weekend at your desk, in which case, we also have this for you. Theme park started generating buzz in late 2011 with "Milk," one of the few singles I've ever heard that lived up to the Talking Heads comparisons it drew. The band members are young, no [...]
![[Listen] – Theme Park – "Two Hours"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4066720_lg.jpg)
Tweet Listen to Theme Park 's new song below, taken from their debut album. Having already released a handful of stellar tracks like the voracious "Milk" and the Talking Heads-influenced "Wax" , it's easy to see (or hear) why people are fawning all over Theme Park , frothing at the mouth in anticipation for their debut album to drop. Today we're one step closer to that happening [...]
Trust us there really is more to Essex that TOWIE. For a start there's The Milk . Employing a heavy stab of 60's r 'n' b and soul influence that the group are known for and taking a dash of their fearsome live sound to the studio, the band return with a new single Broke Up The Family , released on April 2. If the song title seems familiar it's because we featured the video in December, [...]
Happy Valentine's Day LTBeatees! I fell in love at a Kings of Leon concert four years ago to this song. Still melts my heart. xoxo Basil

Have you heard of The Milk? No, then make like a DJ and add them to your iPod playlist as this band are something truly unique to shout about. After first releasing single 'B-Roads' which secured them a reputation as ones to watch in 2012, they've been selling out shows across London right, left and centre. Now with their... Read more..
The white-soul boys called The Milk were something of a one-hit wonder last year with their splendid single (All I Wanted Was) Danger . Thankfully there's more where that came from, and the English lads have just let loose B-Roads [ music video ] which is another excellent retro ska/soul jam. The debut album will be out in May and in the meantime they're touring all over the UK. Get involved folks. B-Roads by The Milk
