Concert Review by Mark Bayross
LA2, London – December 1999
I’m afraid the doors opening at 6pm precipitated me missing the opening act Saints of Eden. When I did arrive, as Leechwoman were starting up, the LA2 was still pretty empty, so I shudder to think what kind of a four-blokes-and-a-dog audience Saints of

Featuring: Man(i)kin, The Borg, Leech Woman, Chaos Engine, Inertia, Covenant, C-Tec
Halloween. The spookiest of all nights. Perfect for a goth get-together, especially this year, what with this being Tony Blair Witch Millennium year, and all that.
Such was the thinking behind tonight’s

The Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London – 11 February 2003
There is a scene towards the end of NAKED GUN 2 ½ where Frank Drebin and his sidekicks disguise themselves as a Mexican mariarchi band to get into a presidential dinner speech, but while sneaking across the stage behind the

Calexico, named after a Californian border town, are a throng of multi-instrumentalists from Tucson, Arizona, centred around vocalist Joey Burns and percussionist John Convertino.

Single Review by Nigel A. Messenger
Caprice has talents that go way beyond her obvious stunning looks, and if you don’t believe me just take a moment to listen to this latest single release that she not only sings but also wrote as well. ONCE AROUND THE SUN has a laid back feeling but

Single Review by Nigel A. Messenger
Once again Tom Jones teams up with one of today’s most “in” bands, and in doing so puts himself and his musical talent directly in front of today’s audience and his next generation of fans.
Still an excellent singer and performer, he couldn’t have picked a better partnership

Album Review by EDF
London based CatDesigners is fronted by Nick Troop who regards this album and the follow-up STRANGE LITTLE CREATURES as solo recordings.
