Texas are one of the few bands who have not only stayed consistently good over the years, but who have actually improved with time, aging like a fine wine since their early days in the late 80’s. In my opinion the band’s last album, Jump On Board, is probably the best thing they’ve done so …
During the late 90’s and early 00’s, Travis felt like the biggest band in the world and while the band themselves may have fallen out of public consciousness, last year saw the release of their 9th studio album, 10 Songs meaning once again I’m headed down the Travis shaped rabbit hole. The band’s previous album, …
Just like most people in Scotland my age I’m sure, I was always been acutely aware of Teenage Fanclub growing up however, I will admit I’ve probably never given them enough attention over the years. I’ve dipped in and out of their music from time to time and thought they were OK but one thing …
Earlier this week we sat down with Scott Taylor, the frontman from Glasgow based band Mason Hill. We discussed the recent success of their debut album, Against the Wall, the thought process behind funding the album through Kickstarter and of course the upcoming tour that starts in September. However, before getting into the reason you …
While he is perhaps best known as the frontman of the iconic Wet Wet Wet, Marti Pellow is back with new music and his latest solo album, Stargazer however, what I think most people don’t seem to realise about Marti Pellow is that he’s actually released more material on his own at this point in …
I’ve never been a huge fan of The Fratellis. I’ve dipped in and out of their catalogue over the years but I never understood the hype connected to their music. It could be the fact that Chelsea Dagger haunted me for years working in Glasgow’s club scene or could be I was just wasn’t paying …
Firstly, yes I do know this album came out like a year ago but I only actually find out about it on Friday when I was sent the video for the band’s cover of Peremen. Hailing from Dundee, Echo Machine are a blast of 80’s inspired synth-pop with a modern twist, up to date production …
My appreciation for Mason Hill goes back to around 2015 when I saw the band play Wildfire Festival. So, needless to say, I’ve been waiting on this album for a while now. So long in fact, by the time it was released I had forgotten about it and to be completely honest, it wasn’t until …
For over a decade now Amy Macdonald has been the backbone of the Scottish music scene and last year saw the release of her fifth album, The Human Demands but given the fact that we weren’t up and running at the time of it’s release, we never actually reviewed it when it came out in …
The term “legends” is thrown about far too often these days but when describing Deacon Blue, you’d be doing the band a disservice if you didn’t utilise it. The band have been going strong since since 1985 and are as popular now as they have ever been. Yes, there’s been hiccups, break-ups and line-up changes …
