It was late January or early February and I was trapped in the special hell that was inventory at the large record store where I worked. The store was so large that it took our staff of sixty or so two days at about ten hours each day to accomplish the task of counting - and recounting - everything. And, the festivities started at six in the morning. (if you wish more grisly details, they're here ) On this particular morning, my head was splitting with a headache that - [...]
Liam Gallagher es de los pocos rockstars que se mantienen y todavía siguen lanzando discos. El artista, cada tanto, sale a hablar con la prensa (sólo cuando tiene ganas y no los maldice de arriba abajo) y en esta oportunidad aseguró que preferiría todavía estar en Oasis antes que en su actual banda, que formó con ex miembros de la anterior, llamada Beady Eye . El artista actualmente está trabajando en lo que será la nueva producción de su nueva agrupación y aseguró que si bien la está pasando bien con Beady Eye preferiría que [...]
When I was 17 the sort of sounds that were being produced from my adolescent vocal chords would have made a deaf man beg for silence. Suffice to say I had discovered Oasis and the joys of being a 'singer' in an Indie-Rock band (come on, it was 2007, EVERYONE was in an Indie-Rock band). At 17 Holly, under the name Smoothiesforme, is creating wonderfully crafted songs (which are recorded and produced by herself), AND she's winning awards for it. In 2010 she made it to the finals of The Forth One To Watch award in Edinburgh, and then in June [...]
Ma quali Beady Eye , il cuore torna sempre agli Oasis . Questo, in soldoni, è il pensiero espresso da Liam Gallagher , che per la prima volta confessa una certa nostalgia per la sua vecchia band, sciolta a causa dei dissapori con il fratello Noel Gallagher . Dalle pagine del Daily Mail , il cantante ha dichiarato «Se la gente pensa che io sia felice per lo scioglimento degli Oasis, allora si sbagliano. Benché io ami i Beady Eye, preferirei essere ancora negli Oasis, perché quella era casa mia. Gli [...]
Filed under: News Getty Images 2011 may have been dominated by Adele 's stranglehold on the Billboard charts and near monopoly of the public's admiration, but there is still one last, iron-willed holdout who has not fallen under her spell: Noel Gallagher . The High Flying Birds frontman is convinced that her success will not last. "I feel sorry for girls in the music industry. They do have a very short shelf [...]
Gone are the days of 90's Britpop, but somehow, West Country boys, 'Towns' are bringing a hefty essence of the genre back. There's been a gaping space in the music field for a while now, missing that throwback. Sure we've had the revival of the Gallagher siblings in their new ventures, but 'Towns' are unmarked and fresh with no cuts or scrapes from previous bands and bust ups. Just what we need for 2012.

Veronica Falls is a young band. There is the group taking pictures of itself! Oh you do not want to miss those first steps. All those loose meandering's on a guitar, bright harmony's recorded! The world could take notice one day,these paintings will be priceless! These infant moments of fledgling bands feel incredible to all the members involved. Pity that I am not the bass player! If I was a contributor, maybe I could share in the hidden magic! I have no such luck, it seems neither do you. Harsh words I know. I do have some very [...]
The name may well ring a bell. That's most probably due to Missing Andy's success on Sky 1's "Must Be The Music" last year. Or it could simply be because you've been listening out for the rare Top 40 hit that isn't simply a big name performing atop a shallow dance beat, but is instead music made and crafted, attempting to convey some sort of message. In the band's own words "No one is speaking up for our generation." Vigilantism was however set aside for the support acts, the notable, and local, Tales Of George most definitely ensured [...]
I don't know whether I had heard Avalanche by Folks some time ago, clocked it as a great song, and subsequently completely forgotten about them, or whether the wave of familiarity and quality I was struck with was purely down to the brilliance of the track. I hope it was the latter, but really, it doesn't matter. What does matter is that Folks are yet another fearsomely talented act from Manchester. Yes, the same Manchester that gave us Wu Lyf, Secret Pilot etc etc etc. The one band that may be of note however is Oasis, specifically Noel [...]

Tony McCarroll is flogging the drumkit he used when he was in Oasis, and Gordon is happy to help : He told me: "I've never taken advantage of the Oasis connections over the years. There have been a lot of offers and opportunities but I just never felt the need to. "I've been living a really normal life, nothing much has been going on. "I've been looking into DJing with Clint Boon. "I heard a rumour Wayne Rooney was interested in buying the drum kit and thought that might be better [...]
Naysayers ( Mr Guardian and Mr NME, we're looking at you ) are proclaiming the days of guitar bands are over. My question for you though, is exactly how much post-dub, chill wave, day-glo, lo-fi ambience can you take? There's certainly times when digging your teeth into something that offers a little bit more for the persistent listeners is well worth the effort, I mean heck, one of my favourite EPs of 2010 was Glass Vaults' Glass EP . Having said that though, an injection of instantly accessible energy every now can be just as warranted. For those of [...]
Viene lanciato oggi, martedi 10 gennaio, on the air il nuovo singolo di Noel Gallagher tratto dal primo disco da solista dell'ex Oasis (qui nella foto insieme a Paul Mc Carthney ) Il cd "Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds" pubblicato dalla Warner Music il 18 ottobre scorso ha diviso a metà i fans degli Oasis divisi fra critiche e apprezzamenti. Continua a leggere Noel Gallagher: oggi è il giorno del nuovo singolo Aka... what [...]
Noel Gallagher , famoso per non avere peli sulla lingua quasi quanto l' illustre fratello , ha attaccato il panorama odierno della musica "mainstream", definendo "atroci" gli artisti che popolano i piani alti delle classifiche. «Ho guardato la puntata natalizia di Top of The Pops ed è stato qualcosa di atroce. Ogni singola canzone sembrava provenire dallo stesso genere musicale. C'era sempre un po' di rap da qualche parte, e tutti cantavano con lo stesso tipo di voce in stile soul. Era spazzatura.» E ha poi ricordato i bei tempi andati, [...]
My mama didn't raise no fools. Well, maybe she did (if you're reading this, Mom, just kidding), but I wasn't one of them. I wouldn't jump off a bridge just because everyone else was doing it. I mean, who would? Okay, I know there are some people out there who are born followers, and would do ridiculous things like jump from a highly elevated point just because their friends are, but I'm not one of them. Still, Richard Ashcroft -- formerly of the Verve, sometimes solo, and recently of RPA & The United Nations [...]
The Gallagher Bros for Rolling Stone par Pablo Lobato Ne soyons point confus de l'objet de notre adoration, nous adorons un groupe, mais ce groupe est autant talentueux que hooligan. Il se trouva à la fin des tours. Il n'est plus sur scène, il n'y a plus de temps pour lui, il jouira de[...]
Back in the day, when two artists didn't like each other, they'd deal with it in relatively low-profile ways: A snippy backstage comment, or a pointed interview comment. Maybe they'd toss in a lyrical jab, the way Lynyrd Skynyrd did toward Neil Young on "Sweet Home Alabama," but that would be just about it. That's all changed. If, say, the Kurt Cobain/Axl Rose VMA-backstage kerfuffle had happened today, the resounding Twitterpocalypse would have the over-capacity whale showing up for three solid days whenever you tried to reload the site. And every time an artist is even vaguely annoyed at something [...]
The Youth skriver i en pressemeddelse, at de er fast besluttede på at prøve at få 60'ernes bluesprægede garagerock tilbage på teenage værelserne. På dette cover af Low's "Just Like Christmas" gør de en så god figur, at det ikke er usandsynligt, at de kan nå i land med den ambition. Bandet har rumsteret i undergrunden en rum tid og forsøgt at finde frem til deres udtryk. Efter en turbulent padlen mellem forskellige genrer — bl.a. den elektroniske musik, er The Youths endelige udtryk nu blevet etableret, bl.a. hjulpet [...]
What is dubstep without Skrillex? Well, it might be smart to begin with an actual definition: it's a genre of electronic dance music notable for its bass drops and a common tempo of 140 bpm. To be more vague, it's basically electronic music with a "womp womp wobble." Assembled below are 10 of the best dubstep remixes posted on Indie Shuffle in 2011. Basically, this list is mostly clear of brostep. Instead, it's mostly composed by a number of remixes and reworks (which were excluded from our Best Remixes of 2011 intentionally). If [...]
