Back To Work
2007-03-31 09:54:00
Apologies for being away for so long - it was back to work on monday and, after two weeks off, there was a lot to catch up on and I was knackered, and slightly brain dead, by the end of the day. Well now I'm back with a slightly different approach to the blog today. I'm going to increase the number of bands featured and reduce the verbosity. I'm going to give myself two sentences to accurately sum up the band and their influences. If it works and the number of hits go up then that will become the norm, if not then I'll go back to the old verbosity! Right here goes for a real Woolies pick 'n Mix ...The Groove FarmGenre: Indie/ Surf / Pop PunkFrom : United KingdomThe Groove Farm are a ramshackle , fuzzy garage band who combine the joyous 60s pop of the The Monkees with the indie sensibilities of The Pastels .

The Devil Goes Mod

Somethings stirring on the streets of towns across Britain, call it a reaction against the scruffy pock marked face and drug scarred arms of Pete Doherty, call it another turn in this generations scouring of the comfort of the past in an increasingly uncertain world, call it the next wave of historical culture plundering just don't mention the Ordinary Boys (at least not just yet). In a clean cut, short haired, Ben Sherman suited and booted rebellion against the scraggy headed, scruffy urchin rock of the recent past narcissism is back. Be upstanding please for the rebirth of Britmod.From the Horrors interest in obscure freakbeat, the mods and skinheads in This Is England (this generations Quadrophenia), Paul Weller on the front cover of the Mail on Sundays magazine Live, or the explosion of mod clubs across the country, Mod is cool againIn keeping with the mood of the times it's Britmod week on The Devil Has The Best Tuna with a selection of new mod(ish) bands together with some mod(

KeneticGenre: Alternative/Rock/PopFrom: Aberdeen, Scotland After they shave in the morning Kenetic must splash themselves all over with a cupful of Mansun brand aftershave after a night of love making with Dark Mavis. Take a listen to 'Charlie Fascination' on their website it's as contagious as MRSA in an NHS hospital and it wouldn't sound out of place on 'Attack Of The Grey Lantern' or 'Six'. Any band that takes the mighty, and unfairly overlooked, Mansun as their inspiration has to be much more worthy of the Devil's attention than the ten a penny Oasis copyists (yes Kasabian I am talking to you now go and stand outside the headmasters office and stop scowling). They have a debut ep coming out sometime soon and you can get a sneak preview by visiting their myspace site where the band have included new track 'Know Where's Home/Nowhere's Home'.Go VisitKenetic - Myspace Go See27 Apr 2007, 8:00, Cafe Drummonds, Aberdeen;15 Jun 2007, 8:00, Lemon Tree, Aberdeen; For those of yo
