this week's post ...

Envy Corps
Story Problem new single 21 April 08
Another joyous stomping production, The Envy Corps should score one day.. maybe Story problem will crack it for them

Milke
I Need Your Love new single 7 December 07
Top track, Andrew Friendly knows his sturff. This shows how brilliant the original Source Candi Staton was, and it's been reworked brilliantly for the dancefloor here

Kamera
Like A Drug new single 17 March
Well they're Swedish but ... this is a little weak "video video, stereo stereo use me like a drug" ... somewhere between The Cure and The Pet Shop Boys ... quite catchy but not strong enough to break through here

Slaves To Gravity
Mr Regulator new single 17 March
STG played at our Mad4it night a month or so back and they put on an impressive if not well attended show. These guys have got their act together and are prepared to graft to get where they want to be. Mr regulator is a fine rock single and should strengthen their campaign

Yoav
Club Thing new single 24 March
I like this, it's rather unusual - an intriguing percussive track with Isreali Yoav's distinct vocals and clever lyric which should win over new fans

Black Tide
Light From Above new album 11 February
BT's songs and vocals are a real strong point and opener 'Shockwave' begins with a classic rock riff. 'Show Me The Way' and 'Black Abyss' are again another three minute rock anthems and then there's 'Warriors Of Time' with it's soft accoustic introduction before the 200bpm frenzy begins. With influences like Metallica, Maiden, Megadeth their worthy support for Avenged Sevenfold and should be headliners in their own right soon
