This is a new I have literally just discovered thanks to the great magazine - ‘Analogue‘.
They’re called Percolator and their from Waterford, a mere 20 minute drive from my hometown. I really like what I have heard from this band. They have My Bloody Valentine similarities but almost sound more lucid. I would almost go as far to say as calling them MBV after several cups of coffee. It’s also a little less layered, what with having just two members, this is understandable, I think this works in their favour though. It gives it a different feel, something which is important in a new band. It is very easy to mirror an already successful band, it is much more difficult to display an influence in your music without sounding contrived, something which I think Percolator have done perfectly.
I am rambling a little now, and treading on pretentiousness so I will stop here.
Check them out - Percolator
Also, they have a gig coming up in Twisted Pepper which is on Abbey Street, I will do my best to go and get some pictures for my non existent readers here.

Who am I kidding? I’ve been incredibly lazy.
Anyway, a short enough post for today. I have been listening to quite a lot of Placebo lately, for the first time in quite a while actually. And I stumbled across the news [...]

The Melvins. Some would say a criminally under-rated band that never saw the success that they deserved but others would argue that they prefer it that way. Me? I don’t know. I have always meant to check them out but never have, but as I type, I am adding their two earliest albums to my [...]

This has just been brought to my attention from another website. Aaron North (guitarist from Nine Inch Nails) and Michael Shuman (bassist from Queens of the Stone Age) have joined forces in the form of new band - Jubilee. Based on my initial listen, I am very impressed. I immediately thought of Weezer (and early, [...]

So, in this age of digital music, mp3’s, playlists and iTunes, we are being told again and again that ‘music listeners’ don’t want to buy full albums anymore, they just want single songs. I have heard this uttered a multitude of times and to be honest, I’m still not so sure.
There’s something nice about listening [...]
