Amplifer Echo Street Kscope 11 March 2013 by Tom Gibbons A couple of years ago Amplifier's The Octopus double-album shifted a fair few copies and filled venues , largely because it was a great rock record, and Amplifier retain their refined, grandiose sound for Echo Street . Aside from the polished production, the Manchester group’s latest album bears little resemblance to its predecessor, and lacks its inventive song-writing and [...]

On first listen, the first thing that struck me was how complicated this album is. The album I'm referring to Fog Electric by North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO for short), a mammoth 10 track meaty offering due for release via the Kscope imprint (home to my favorite band The Pineapple Thief). What North Atlatic Oscillation is putting out basically, is a collection of found sound and electronica mathematically arranged into a beautiful patchwork of songs almost resembling music - because, well, it's not music. It's fucking art. This is most definitely not an easy listening album. Fog Electric, with its subtle [...]
Anathema Title TBC Kscope Records ETA April 2012 What they’re saying: Not too much at this stage, though we do know that this will be an album of new Anathema material (as opposed to old material revisited a la Hindsight or Falling Deeper ) and the natural follow up [...]
We were never going to miss A Night At The Union Chapel. As well as our love for Anathema, The Pineapple Thief and Giancarlo Erra, KScope are a great label. Yep.

Another stellar collection of poignant, catchy, and wonderfully arranged songs.
Anathema played We're Here Because We're Here in its entirety at London King's Cross Scala and Thrash Hits was there with the goths and proggers to review the show!

A beautiful and lush post-rock, synth pop debut.
The London formed band Engineers have yet to better their debut, and it seems from this, their third album, we will have to wait a little longer. ‘In Praise of More’ finds the band with little fight left in them, coming across as a vaporous cluster of vocals, acoustics and broad-shouldered synths. And OK, the debut wasn’t exactly thrash metal; in fact it trod similar lines, but it was new and fresh – five years later we feel justified to expect progress, which unfortunately is absent here. There are no hard-lines or definable moments on which to guide these songs, [...]
Pigeon Versus Statue is pleased to announce the US release of, 3000 Days from The Pineapple Thief , out now on Kscope. 2CD set - The Best Of The Pineapple Thief 1999 - 2008 Re-mastered edition - compiled by Bruce Soord, including alternative versions/mixes. Last year, The Pineapple Thief launched the Kscope label with the critically acclaimed album, Tightly Unwound. [...]
I knew absolutely nothing about this band prior to listening to this album. The only reason the name was familiar was due to a remix of 'Blue Light' they contributed to Bloc Party's Silent Alarm Remixed . The remix stripped the song down to its basics, focusing on Kele Okereke's vocals and the dreamy atmosphere suggested by the keys, as opposed to the rock n' roll crescendo found at the end of the album version. Since I probably listened to the remix more than the original track, I went into this album with moderately high hopes. [...]
Un peu de douceur dans ce monde de brutes. Au programme de cette playlist : des claviers haut perchés, des basses, au choix rondes et soyeuses, ou rugueuses et animales, mais qui toujours vous caressent les mollets, un soupçon de naïveté pour garder le sourire, et des montées irrésistibles qui, lentement mais surement, hissent les [...]
