Live Reviews: Maps and Atlases / Tall Ships @ Brudenell Social Club, Leeds 09.10.10
Ready that dead horse for a fierce beating, because this show was an odd one. Without getting too bogged down in some polemical preamble, let’s just say that it’s easy to see when a genre – as a scene or a community or a trend or whatever – is in trouble.

Live Reviews: Hope & Social @ The Luminaire, London 23.09.10
A warm and sizable venue whose inscribed walls certainly don’t hold back from reminding you to shut the fuck up whilst the bands are playing... an excellent support set by Arthur Rigby and the Baskervylles leads us into the main act of the night...
