The Libertines successfully completed their comeback last night (27 Aug), playing the Main Stage at Leeds Festival. Being The Libertines though, the set was not without drama. After ripping through early crowd pleasers ‘Horrorshow’, ‘The Delaney’ and ‘Vertigo’, the set had to be stopped due to fears for the safety of fans at the front…
Although the tracks that have so far surfaced from The Great Gatsby soundtrack have been interesting, we’ve all been waiting to hear this one. Producer Mark Ronson debuted Beyonce and OutKast’s Andre 3000’s version of Amy Winehouse’s track on his radio show last night, and now there’s a radio rip you can hear below. Amy’s…
I’m all for bands trying something different and not recording the same thing over and over again, but Coldplay’s ‘Midnight’ is an experiment gone too far. As a piece of ambient music it’s very involving and the mixture of Martin’s vocoder vocals and a mix of electronic instrumentation is actually quite listenable in a relaxing…
The third cut from Embrace’s fifth album, ‘Follow You Home’ is their best song, in my opinion, in ages. Poppier than their more recent fair, the simple but catchy chorus quickly grabs you, thanks in main to the delivery of lead singer Danny McNamara and the driving drum beat.

There’s been a lot of build-up to Kasabian’s new album – thanks to a huge push from the band and their label which has seen them announce a huge homecoming show in Leicester as well as the small matter of a Glastonbury headline slot – so naturally anticipation amongst fans is quite high. Tonight we’ll…
Manic Street Preachers have today launched the promo campaign for their upcoming 12th studio album Futurology with the release of lead single ‘Walk Me To The Bridge’. The single is a return to the Manics’ patented epic-rock sound, with layers of guitars and a rollicking chorus from James Dean Bradfield. Watch the video for it below:…
Ciara is getting ready to release her new solo LP titled “Jackie”. The album will be out sometime this week. To help herself get some momentum going into the release, she released a new single from the album titled “Dance Like We’re Making Love” last week. The single is produced by Dr. Like and Cirkut….
