Reviews: Crystal Antlers @ The Borderline, Jan 27th.
So last night my ears were perhaps irreversibly damaged by the prog rock noise of Crystal Antlers who are out on the road for their first European tour. They played as part of a monthly club Uncut night which last month featured the entirely less noisy Department Of Eagles. The main support slot this evening was filled by another California band Delta Spirit, who were a strange choice. // more

Jeremy Warmsley’s Heartbreak Ball @ The Slaughtered Lamb, 15th Feb.

Fanfarlo @ The Lexington, Valentine’s Day Feb 14th.
What? Fanfarlo + Grafitti Island + Male Bonding + Throwing Up. Those looking for something to do on Valentine’s day should look no further. Fanfarlo might be London’s answer to The Arcade Fire and should be perfect for either tugging on the heartstrings of a partner or wallowing in self pity, whatever you feel like on this mixed bag of a day. // more
