Ditto on the above post . Moon Duo at St Bartholomew's church in Brighton. The wandering repetitive rhythms just hook you along . Their light show has, over the years ,got to another level . Just Brilliant.
Nice early night too !

BROKENHEART

Can't bring myself to go and see the band at any of these huge arena shows . Just not the same experience, especially after recently seeing Nick Cave conversations at the Barbican this year.
A sign of the times. Brilliant new album though .

BROKENHEART

A stunner, a really emotional record with lots of piano, psychedelic synths and spacey sounds . I haven't heard Nick Caves vocals with anywhere near as much emotion in his previous albums as in Ghosteen. The release of this new album reminds me of when Black Star came out and I couldn't listen to th...

You don't realise how much something is part of your life until it's not there. Really missed the forum those few short days it was off air.
Thanks once again to all the moderators, without whom this brilliant forum would not be . Cheers.

BROKENHEART

Ditto on the post from sunray. Especially enjoying the debut from Brightons Yetti, some great Stoner rock. Good luck to the future of DRR. Drone on !

BROKENHEART

Almost certainly the gig of the year for me .
Everything about this show ticked all the boxes. The Sound was so clear, great set and a very emotional atmosphere. Brilliant.

BROKENHEART

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Some tears were shed last night . The set, the sound , it was all too much . Highlight of my year so far.
Probably posted in the wrong heading.

BROKENHEART

" Fog of Love " is the one for me .

BROKENHEART

RIP Roky Erickson . A very sad day for The Psychedelic world .

BROKENHEART

Nice chilled album. Lots of the usual reverb, some slide with the trademark repetitive rhythms in a country style.
Only on my first listening, but I'm sure I'm going to really get into this album.
Review and q&a in Uncut 7/10 .

BROKENHEART

Great set , was really apprehensive before arriving at Victoria park because of the scheduled time of the Spiritualized slot, but when I found out that it was to be in the West stage big top it was a big result. Really enjoyed the mix of songs , but always a sucker for Shine a Light. As said before,...

BROKENHEART

The God Machine } "Scenes From The Second Storey " and " One Last Laugh In A Place Of Dying " . Great band, whose life was cut short after the very sad death , from a brain hemorrhage, of their bass guitarist Jimmy Fernandez at the age of 29. At the top of my list of early 90s li...

BROKENHEART

Endless Boogie } Hope and Ruin Brighton The night kicked off with local Stoner rock band Yetti. Would definitely want to see this lot again , lots of noise, drone and feedback . Dark, deep vocals. Sometimes vocals can ruin stoner stuff, when you're getting into the distortion groove it was not the c...

Minimalist Dream House } Barbican With the very impressive Katia and Marielle Labèque with David Chalmin, Bryce Dessner and Thom Yorke. Great gig, would be very keen to see the Labèque Sisters live again, their 2013 album Minimalist Dream House a fine listening. ******************************** Moon...

Wed June 19th
This should be an interesting evening.
Tickets very pricey, but I've always been a big fan and it will be good to see him in a more intimate venue.
Members presale tickets sold out in 20 + minutes . General sale tickets tomorrow (21st Feb at 9.00 ) . Release the Bats !

BROKENHEART

Blimey, where did those 4 years go ! I remember when the first Kill West ep came out in 2015, great record. As was Smoke Beach and the 2nd Kill West DRR release Raw Desire. Finally got to see them play a fine live show at The Hope and Ruin in Brighton 2017 supporting the album Gush. Just to say than...

BROKENHEART

Wow ! So glad I got a ticket straight after last years festival. The atmosphere there is the best I've witnessed at any festival. This is the best line up of any festival I've seen so far and will take a lot of beating. Roll on Aug - Sept 🤗🍻😎, PS } Sorry, got a bit carried away and didn't mention th...

Catching up with some of the last month's gigs . Beach House at Troxy London. Really into the new album 7. Wether it competes as highly as Teen Dream only time will tell. Songs from most of their albums at Troxy with visuals and lighting to match their dreamy sound . Just to note if anyone on here d...

Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever } Portsmouth Wedgwood Rooms. From Melbourne Australia RBCF are what I would call a really lively indie band , with lots of jangling guitar sounds carrying a nice groove through their songs. Nowadays some indie or so called indie bands can be a bit tamed, but these guy...

Brian Jonestown Massacre at The Concorde 2 Brighton. You weren't always quite sure what to expect at a BJM gig as regards to Antons attitude on the night.

Joan Armatrading at Shanklin Theatre. I first saw Joan back in the mid seventies ( showing my age now ! ) , wonderful vocals and songs of love and sadness . Joan played the new album for the first set and returned to play old favourites for the second set . That second set took me back to an exact t...

Saw these at End of the road festival recently. Side project for Saul Adamczewski from the Fat White Family. There couldn't be 2 more different styles of music . FWF with an edge, sleazy and completely nuts , but great with it . Insecure Men really chilled out pop and easy to the ear listening. I th...

BROKENHEART

La Luz at The Hope and Ruin Brighton.
Nice chilled out evening listening to surf noir ,dream pop , whatever you want to call it .
The female foursome from LA are just so good at the sound they create.
I'm just a sucker for those harmony vocals , guitars and keyboard.

BROKENHEART

Hi again, thanks for posting: that is one incredible recording you made, so many many thanks for that. From what I've heard so far the sound quality is unreal: great dynamics between beautifully intimate vocals and guitar - and full-on Spiritualized insanity! Glad you enjoyed the gig, and I'm glad ...

Congratulations and well deserved to everyone here, especially all moderators.

The set list worked very well and had me in tears quite often!

Yes, grown men do cry ! at special moments.

BROKENHEART

Can't believe what a beautiful set of classics and the new album I witnessed last night . 19 (I think) songs that sounded better than I've ever heard. The new stuff was just amazing with the full works of band,choir and orchestra. One downer, which I didn't realise, spoke to John Coxon at the gig an...

BROKENHEART

Not quite gathered my thoughts on the new album yet (I certainly love it!) but it's brought about a massive Spiritualized binge this week. I'm rediscovering so much wonderful material, and the "not listened for years" highlight so far has to be the stellar 1995 Peel Session recording of '...

End of the road festival (Dorset) Probably the most chilled out festival I've been to over the years. Beautiful setting in the Larmer tree gardens near Salisbury.

Tickets bought for London.

Lots of mixed feelings on here. I really like I'm your man , need a few more listens to A perfect miracle.
I'm sure when early September arrives, hopefully opinions may change.
I look forward very much to receiving the new box set and live shows.

BROKENHEART

Sounded really good. Excitement for 14.00 hrs .

BROKENHEART

LOUD,LOUD,LOUD , myself to blame ,being within touching distance of Michael Gibbons and his Marshal amps . The band have got it together tonight, a pounding, Throbbing, distorted drone that becomes mesmeric, especially when Isobel Sollenberger comes in on the flute. Although at times her vocals are ...

BJM gigs announced in England and Scotland, so far, including Brighton (Concorde 2) and London O2 Forum . Other towns include Bristol,Birmingham, Glasgow, Newcastle and Sheffield. All dates are for October.

I wasn't sure what to expect last night at Cafe Oto, but really glad I went. Not really seen or heard anything like this before, 5 brilliant musicians improvising a cacophony of sound that you couldn't keep your ears or eyes from. Alan Wilkinson just got so many different experimental sounds and noi...

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to the moderators for getting the forum back up.

Thee Hypnotics - King Tuts, Glasgow. Had been approaching this gig with a bit of trepidation to be honest, now I really liked Thee Hypnotics back in the day but by no stretch were they a big band even in `indie` circles, so while I was pleased to get another chance to see them I wondered how much i...

6th June .Really looking forward to this one , not sure if they'll be showing elsewhere over here this year . Didn't manage to catch them at the end of last year supporting GSYBE.

BROKENHEART

Really great evening that seemed to run like clockwork. 6 bands, lots of drone.
Can't say that any one band stole the evening for me, just enjoyed the whole night, with what looked and sounded like a like minded crowd.
Thanks Shines for organising a smoothly run Showcase.

BROKENHEART

Moon Duo , Xoyo London. Always a great experience these days at a Moon Duo gig , both sound and visually. I know it's been a few years now , but the addition of the drummer, which initially I wasn't quite sure about, has made the sound so much more dynamic. The light show was brilliant again, especi...

Mark E Smith . Never a dull moment. Arguably one of the best front men ever. Some brilliant Fall shows, some good and some pretty forgetful. One thing you can't do is argue with the back catalogue with studio , live and compilation albums totalling over 100 . My favourite memory of a Fall live show ...

Aldous Harding } Party. Wonderful songs and vocals. A real treat to see her live.

BROKENHEART

I'm there to whatever it takes. A huge thankyou to Runcible and Modlab for all the hard work putting it all together. Without this forum no doubt my mind would not have been expanded to so much wonderful music.
Thanks to all , have a great end of year celebration and all the very best for 2018.

New Candys , Is Bliss and The Damn Shebang at Sticky Mikes Frog Bar, Brighton. Italian take on psych rock, moody and dark with a great driving sound. Is Bliss a trio from Portsmouth, these guys sound better each time I see them . Looking forward to hearing their new album out fairly soon. Lots of Ve...

Aldous Harding at Islington Assembly Hall and Brighton The Haunt. An Aldous Harding performance is not just a vocal, guitar and keyboard thing, it's a visual display of body moves and facial expressions and contortions. Mesmerising to watch and listen to all the emotions coming through her songs. Sh...

BRMC at The Dome Brighton. For me this gig was ok but didn't seem anywhere near as dynamic as when I saw them back in 2010 at The Pyramids Centre in Portsmouth. Wether it was the sound or the venue, I couldn't really put my finger on it. I loved the support band, Restavrant, raw, slide bluesy with l...

Only my second visit to this one. A noticeable (as said in previous posts) lack of choice of foods and beer .

Kill West at The Hope and Ruin Brighton. Been looking forward to catching up with these guys since the release of the first e.p. Kill West in 2014. The wait was well worth it. The sound has changed a lot since the scale down from a 5 piece to a 4 piece, less doom and surf, more rocky garage psych. R...
