Gave that KEXP thing a blast.'s alright. Kinda reminds me of Polvo / Don Cab-esque stuff made by kids who got into music when Arctic Monkeys and Bloc Party were big. Not my thing, but it's their thing.They better pay whatever it takes to keep the drummer on board, it would fall into total artskool s...

Great as an experience (visuals and sound design), would echo the calls to see it in the cinema.Kinda obvious. Too long. A little too slow in too many places. The horror elements were the bits that didn't work that well for me. The most grotesque spectacles imaginable became passé in mainstream far...

Not to rub any extra salt into your wounds, but seeing Ed Balls being trounced was a pure moment of schadenfreude. Just perfect.

The threat of stalemates and uncertainty seems to be casting a nasty smell over what has been (so far) a tepid election campaign. There's a little bit of desperation and greed at play (especially from the minor parties and Scottish Labour), but fear seems to be the dominant factor.Debt, deficit, the...
