"The boys are perfectionists making fans wait five years since their inception for something solid."

Live Review: Julia Holter, Marcus Whale

"The mood lightened and the musicians began to sweat and loosen their shoulders."

Live Review: Goat, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Orb

"Playing an experimental fusion of '70s style psych-rock with flourishes of afrobeat and acid-rock driven by the hauntingly cloaked dual vocalists."

Live Review: Father John Misty, Cam Avery

"Misty then returns to take the piss of the whole encore tradition by saying, "How could I possibly leave? I still have two folk bangers left."

Live Review: Sam Smith, Emma Louise

"Smith introduces a song he penned at the age of 19, "The first honest song I ever wrote": 'I've Told You Now'."

Live Review: Rudimental, GRMM

"The Forum feels like a trampoline as the audience lunges back up into the air as one in feverish jumps and fist pumps."

Live Review: Chris Cornell, David Leaupepe

"After a career spanning thirty years and half a dozen different projects, it's not surprising that the room was frothing at the mouth."

Live Review: Ed Sheeran, Rudimental

"Some bloke yells, "We're wet for you, Ed!" and as crass as that is, it's 100% true."

Album Review: The Aves - Good News

"The debut LP from The Aves exists in a place that feels exotic and also truly close to home."

Live Review: Pixx 'Deplore' (Official Video)

When these beautiful lyrics from Pixx are surrounded by whirling dark synths and a warped guitar line, it becomes a hypnotic piece of music.
