The mp3 blog project. Tuesday, June 28, 2005. What do you have to do to get sued around here? Word just read that Said the Gramophone received a C D. Went to see M.I.A last week in Norwich- poor sound blighted the first half of the show but she turned it around in some style, review is up here. Posted by Loz at 10:35 am. Wednesday, June 22, 2005.

Unlucky for none: Truck 13 2010. Quote of the day. Alive and kicking (out the jams). Take on me a slightly critical reviewer. Well, kind of weapon: The 1-2-3-4 Shoreditch 2010. The A - Z Of Music. The Eurovision Song Contest. Songs with associated dance moves. Musicians dabbling in politics. Bring Back. Punk'. Me And My CDs.

The Art Of Noise: Behind the counter
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/02/behind-counter.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Islington Flashback Records. 25feb11. The time not to make an in-store appearance at a record shop that deals only in second hand merchandise is about a year after releasing an LP. Seeing twenty copies of your magnum opus stacked up with ever decreasing amounts stickered onto the cover would, I imagine, do little for the collective morale. Instead, they turn a potential crisis of performance to an opportunity, on the quiet, to peacock the...

The Art Of Noise: Drum lift me up
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/08/drum-lift-me-up.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Friday, August 26, 2011. Drum lift me up. Shoreditch Catch. 25aug11. To some the idea of a drummer doing a solo show will no doubt bring one of two thoughts to mind; noodling prog acts giving their sticksman an ego boost and their guitarists a fag break; or a council- funded community rhythm workshop. Charles Hayward fits neither profile. The lyrics tend to be the repetitive hook, cycling around a kind of 21. Information rich, information poor. Nimble round the neck.

Continuing this site’s tradition of half-assed commentary on musical events, we present one-line reviews, in chronological order, of the second Belle and Sebastian curated Bowlie weekender.

The Art Of Noise: Magic moments
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/12/magic-moments.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Sunday, December 11, 2011. London Scala. 30nov11. Dublin Button Factory. 02dec11. Nottingham Rescue Rooms. 07dec11. Leeds Irish Centre. 08dec11. What sells the Magic Band as being something more than merely a Captain Beefheart tribute act is the fact that they contain some genuine ‘originals’, people who recorded and played out Don Van Vliet’s music with the man himself at the helm. The stories around the recording of their most celebrated LP,. Thankfully, French i...

The Art Of Noise: Toy!
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2012/02/toy-4.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Monday, February 13, 2012. Shacklewell Arms, 10feb12. With the failed prototype Joe Lean and The Jing Jang Jong consigned to the under-stairs cupboard, three of their members (Jing, Jang AND Jong one assumes) have turned up in the latest red hot proposition to dangle itself in front of the eager ears and eyeballs of London’s zeitgeist surfers. If anything the interest in being part of this crowd does not translate into heady atmosphere, but this might be partly dow...

The Art Of Noise: After the wheel
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/10/after-wheel.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Monday, October 31, 2011. Deptford Bird’s Nest. 28oct11. Given that guitarist Steve Eagles and Ted Milton (vocalist, saxophonist and the sun around which the world of Blurt orbits) have turned out in suits (albeit with t-shirts rather than ties beneath), it seems slightly wrong that Blurt should be playing out in the alcove of a South London boozer with a gap of about five feet between the stage and the sound desk. Ted moves between sax and singing regularly with b...

The Art Of Noise: goodbye dry eyes...
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/05/goodbye-dry-eyes.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. Notes from the Departure Lounge. Died over the weekend at the age of 67 after losing his battle against cancer. The name might not mean much to you, and it's possible that his stage name of John Walker won't reverberate that much louder to your ears. but Maus was the founder member, guitarist and original lead singer of the Walker Brothers. And " The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Any More). Where the band are sitting enjoying tins of brown ale and t...

The Art Of Noise: Popping up, early doors
http://the-art-of-noise.blogspot.com/2011/01/popping-up-early-doors.html
The Art Of Noise. News, views, reviews. Sunday, January 02, 2011. Popping up, early doors. Highbury Garage. 01jan11. Shellac are not indefatigable tourers by any means, indeed playing live often just means a little time away from the office for guitarist and vocalist Steve Albini and bassist Bob Weston, the pair being respected recording engineers in the day-to-day. One heckler then offers Electric Sledgehammer. As an option, which is immediately shot down as being ludicrous. Indeed, you would imagine th...
