It`s official , Carter USM can add an`ology` to their long list of exploits , trails & tribulations. Our almost `comic book like` indie heroes have a new (in sense & purposes) double CD anthology `You Fat Bastard` released through EMI towards mid-October , wonderfully timed to coincide with Jim Bob & Fruit Bat`s two night musical reunion in Glasgow & London. . .

The emphasis being placed recently on live shows & heavy touring has certainly given bands like `Grace Potter And The Nocturnals`more of a creative edge , whether perfecting their sound in rehearsals or finalising arrangements on the new record , we are almost gifted with some pure bred rock & roll. The album `This Is Somewhere` seems a fabulous achievement for the twenty-four year old Grace Potter and her Vermont based band , you`re immediately taken in with the first track`Ah Mary`, cleverly commercial & very subtlety pointing your ears in the right direction. It`s not [...]

The now de-robed Polyphonic Spree, dressed to impress in their new day wear will shortly descend on the green & pleasant pastures of the U.K. Tim Delaughter & Co are obliged to grace us with horns, strings & uplifting harmonies, maybe even one great big group hug !! The new album`The Fragile Army`will no doubt be a moderate commercial success, bringing together hope, charm & the customary use of rose tinted glasses. [...]
No wishy-washy six string dramatics here i`m afraid , Douglas Hall is fast becoming a frightening acoustic talent. Sounding wonderfully offbeat with those cheeky hammer downs & imposingly honest vocals , we`re served up a plate of stripped down funk & jazzed up blues. Next chance for live acoustic bliss will be Wed 15th August at Leonards Bar , London ... Great night for only a fiver !! [...]
