Just Oh My God.... I knew this album was going to be good, but this is far much more. This is eeasily Sigur Ros's best work to date, their most heartfelt, emotional songs they've ever written! I dont speak Icelandic, So I have no idea what they're going on about but I just don't care when the music is this good! Takk is filled with monumental beauty and is already considered a classic and Sigur

Funeral is one of the most talked about albums of the past year, and for one good reason - It's fucking amazing. From start to finish, a true modern work of genius. Enough said!

Originally released back in 2004, it would appear that now is the time for Nizlopi to finally break through. With 'JCB' ringing in everybody's ears during christmas and succesfully reaching No.1 they seem certain to dominate the charts for a long time to come. Nizlopi have combined pop, folk, indie and rock to create a heart warming collection of songs to pick you up out of the blue.

‘Young For Eternity’ is the massively anticipated debut album from the highly hyped Subways. Combining all the good qualities of The Vines, The White Stripes and Von Bondies to create one of the most raucous albums of the year. Superb, buy it now.

Stephen Fretwell is a singer songwriter with a gift for sounding like a seasoned artist twice his age. A beautiful mix of gentle tunes, intelligent lyrics and majestic vocals, Magpie looks set to send Fretwell into stardom instantly. Brilliant stuff.

From the infectiously catchy ‘Apply Some Pressure’ to the jerky passion of ‘Graffiti’ and the immense ‘Going Missing’, ‘A Certain Trigger’ is edgy, powerful and energetic. Newcastle's Maximo Park, after two hit singles, have finally released their debut album. This album is simply solid gold, from start to finish it grabs you by the wrist and leads you on a trip through one of Newcastles newest

Oh... my... God! I've been waiting for this moment for a bleemin long time, and its finally arrived! Possibly the best album of the year! It's an odd album, with only a couple of songs actually sounding like Colplay at all. The album opens on a strange, techno song.... don't cry yet, its VERY good! then contrast this to "Fix You" a song that sounds like a hymme, with a church organ dominating the

YAY! Ok the new album from Oasis, out to buy on 30th May! I have it! YAY again! Ok, now on to the review! YAY!I press play on my cd player, and listen in awe as Oasis have done it yet again. The album opens with the immense song "Turn Up The Sun" which sets you in the mood for 10 more excellent Oasis tracks. The fun just never stops with this album, from the chants of “love one another“ to the

Whilst everyones been looking at Bloc Party, the Kaiser Chiefs have snuck in with "Employment" a heart felt, loud "lets chant this as loud as we can in the pub" album. The first single "I Predict A Riot" set the mood for everyone and did the same to the Chiefs that "Welcome To The Jungle" did for Guns N Roses. The chugging guitar and 80's influence have both come together to form this well made,

The new Feeder album is the bands most ambitious to date, with great improvements to the melodies that the band have already made fanastic in previous records. They've created a base that all new bands should try and reach. An astonishing album from start to finish. Buy it now!

Technically not a radio station, but it is in the sense that I broadcast nice music through it. It's not streaming, and at the moment only has 2 songs on it, and no DJing, I'll hopefully make 1 broadcast at the begining of every week, I HOPE if I have the time to do it that is. Well, you can check out the first broadcast from "Songs For The Hearing Impaired" Radio here.

I know that this has been out for ages, but a site that is supposed to be giving reviews of the best music around wouldn't be complete without it, so here it is!Something good has come of Scotland at last! (apart from Travis anyway) One of the most amazing debut albums of all time has just been produced, and who would have guessed that Scotland would deliver it?! The first album where I've wanted

Better late than never eh Dave. Well with a few too many beers in the old system i've decided to write something. The first thing i thought was that the album was ok, and basically i only really want to listen to the ones they have released e.g L.S.F , Club Foot, which are pretty decent and catchy. While listening to the other songs I am yet to be greatly inspired by the put on accents. I found

"Happiness In Magazines" is Graham's answer to everyone asking if he'll rejoin his former band mates, the answer is of course NO. After 5 solo albums, Graham has produced this mini-masterpiece, he's done good, and this is an album for all to hear.Buy it now!

Hope Of The States have created an album worthy of contending for album of the year. The band have suddenly appeared out of nowhere with an album that could push bands like Razorlight into memory. Including the singles "Enemies/Friends", "Black Dollar Bills" and "The Red, The White, The Black, The Blue" that shows the bands full potential and they shouldn't be ignored. A confident and

After the release of the single "Riot Radio" The Dead 60's have created quite a stir in the music industry. This new single reveals a side to them we haven't seen, the single is deep and ful of emotion. Certainly a band to look out for in 2005

The perfectly orchestrated hit single "Love Steals Us From Loneliness" is exactly what this album is about. After years of waiting, mainstream success is just around the corner. Featuring the excelent songs "Welcome Home", "Too Long Awake" and "Not Just Sometimes". This is a perfect Indie rock album from start to finish.Buy It Now!

What an album! A debut album only beaten by Oasis "Definately Maybe". "Silent Alarm" is the future of modern music. The fantastic "Like Eating Grass" begins the album and it just keeps getting better and better. The only thing that can possibly stop the amazing Bloc Party is the new Oasis album, "Don't Believe The Truth" scheduled for release on the 28th May, and after hearing "Lyla" it certainly

Right then, this is a toughy! So hard in fact, that I cant decide it on my own! YOU can help me decide! Just reply to this post with who wins and why.I'll start us off with...The Killers win! Because The Killers are a perfect example of why a big record collection create the greatest bands. Oasis for example have mixed punk, glam and 60’s pop, to become the biggest band of the 90's.

Possibly the album that wins the award for most unique creation. Damien was given a mobile recording studio by David Arnold and in March 2000 Damien set about recording "O" on a boathouse in Southwest Ireland: Damien wanted to create an album in a non-traditional, spontaneous fashion, in his bedroom, his kitchen, wherever and whenever it felt right. The result is 'O': ten unique songs that

This is in fact the 22-20's second album, after having taken the strange step in releasing a live album as their debut. Featuring the amazing singles "Such a Fool", "Shoot your Gun", and "Why Don't You Do It For Me?" Loud brash blues-rock that is destined for 'classic' status.

A band that might well be challenging the likes of Jet, The White Stripes and The Datsuns for World supremacy.
