    Shoegaze

    It's interesting how POPULAR shoegaze music is these days. I remember very clearly at the time simon Reynolds bagging the shit out of the genre as being the 'scene that celebrates itself', but in hindsight alot of the bands have dated alot better than many of the American grunge bands of the...

    RIP Rowland S Howard

    Whilst he aint dub-step-hyperism defintely a 'modernist' guitar player, and one of the more unique and 'world class' influential artists from Australia. Most of you probably know his sound/style - noise guitar fused with a cinematic Morricone-like grandeur informed by the post-punk neurosis -...

    Alain Robbe-Grillet (films mainly)

    EDEN AND AFTER is fantastic, as is L'IMMORTELLE, and yes the comparison to DAVID LYNCH is spot-on, Lynch freaks will find Robbe-Grillet movies very, very easy to digest, as will fans of surreal/cult cinema, and there's boobs and sexy knickers in there with all the intellectual stuff, so there's...
