  3. James Yuill - Movement In A Storm (Moshi Moshi)

  4. Slow Club

    Live Reviews: Slow Club @ The Cockpit, Leeds 29.05.10

    Having released their album ‘Yeah So’ earlier this year, Slow Club seemed to Bearded like a band who would play a calming, airy-fairy acoustic gig punctuated with little other than song announcements.

  8. Unbunny - Moon Food (Affairs Of The Heart)

    Albums: Unbunny - Moon Food (Affairs Of The Heart)

    This quiet storm of a record is another convincing portrayal of the classic post-hippie alternative dilemma, rejecting the culture that labels Unbunny a freak and a failure...

    Live Reviews: Scout Niblett @ Freebutt, Brighton 05.06.10

    This may be 2010 but any of the legendary blues old-timers would nod approvingly at the fiercely fabulous sound produced by Emma Louise ‘Scout’ Niblett and her guitar.

  10. VA - The Psychedelic Sounds Of The Sonic Cathedral: A Tribute To Roky Erickson (Sonic Cathedral)

    Albums: VA - The Psychedelic Sounds Of The Sonic Cathedral: A Tribute To Roky Erickson (Sonic Cathedral)

    A trippy tribute to Roky and The 13th Floor Elevators, this compilation with moments of shameless retro enjoyment makes up in cool factor what it might occasionally lack in quality.
