Pocket Satellite at Tramlines

Pocket Satel­lite, who we’ve reviewed a couple of times in the past, played at the Not­ting­ham House on the Sat­urday at Tram­lines. For­tu­nately for me, the venue were about an hour behind time, which gave me the oppor­tun­ity to have a chat with Tom (accord­ing to the band’s MySpace “per­cuss­ive diversions/bowed noise”) about what Pocket […]

Tramlines Festival 2010

There’s been a lot of talk in and around Shef­field about Tram­lines this year. The free fest­ival began last year, attract­ing over 35,000 people, and returned this year big­ger and bet­ter than before, with an estim­ated foot­fall of 60,000 on the Sat­urday alone. The fest­ival is spread out over fifty or so dif­fer­ent ven­ues across […]

Stray­light Run have announced that they are now on an “indef­in­ite hiatus”. How­ever, Shaun has quit the band for good. Zoli Teglas (Ignite) is Pennywise’s new vocal­ist. Allegedly, it happened as a res­ult of a mis­di­alled tele­phone num­ber.

Pocket Satellite — Toy Train

If you don’t know who Pocket Satel­lite are, you’ve missed out. We reviewed their first EP here, and as you can see, we loved it. We Chased Sol­diers was one of my favour­ite tracks on the Pho­to­graphs and Shells EP. It makes an appear­ance on this EP as well, and sounds sub­stan­tially the same. Maya’s incredible […]

Live At The Raynor Lounge, Sheffield

You could be for­given for under­es­tim­at­ing the import­ance of tonight. Just another stu­dent run night, in a stu­dent venue, that’ll barely turn a profit. It’s true, of course, but that’s not a good enough reason to dis­miss it, espe­cially not when you’re look­ing at the line-up. Anna Leddra-Chapman, The Brights, and The Sound Ex, all […]

Pocket Satellite — Photographs and Shells

At some point in our lives, each and every one of us real­ises that music can be beau­ti­ful. Whether you real­ised recently, with the likes of The Fray’s “How To Save A Life”, or earlier than that, with tracks such as Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart”, that real­isa­tion can com­pletely change your perceptions […]
