Don’t be fooled by Mogwai’s penchant for playful titles as there are still guitars, noise and ambient charm aplenty across Rave Tapes: just be prepared for a complex, dynamic, thinking man’s kind of rave.

The themes remain the same, but it’s Harder To Tame that is their most obvious attempt at playing for a global mainstream audience.

While there’s no denying her on-point skills as a rapper or ability to punch out candid lyrics, there’s nothing groundbreaking here

Never groundbreaking or boring, this should more than sate any Japanophile punk rocker.

Don’t be fooled by the ‘punk-pop’ tag applied to bolshy Perth quartet I, Said The Sparrow – there’s little punk about their debut, seemingly cobbled together from unwanted bits of Neon Trees and Good Charlotte albums.
