20 years ago we lived in arguably the most exciting time for music. Although the indie music scene is no longer played out on the front pages or even the mainstream airwaves, its importance in how we live our lives has never been more relevant. Life is loud so listen carefully to the good stuff. My blog will share news and reviews to help raise awareness of the many cracking tracks now playing in the big wide world.

the only way to survive Black Friday
Happy Black Friday! (said by no-one ever)
So, it appears this retail gimmick is now an actual thing here to stay. If you can't beat them and you don't want to join them, then hidden within the links to the following post lies a selection of amazing, yet tenuously related songs to help you make it through the Black Friday madness.
If you were up at midnight in the sheer black of night to surf the shelves of the internet then by now you'll probably need a coffee to keep those heavy eyes awake and revitalise those fingers to type in your card details for the umpteenth time. The question is - do you prefer it black or white?
As I write this I'm trying to understand the logic of those people who woke up this morning pumped and ready to go in search of more stuff they probably don't need. I love a big TV as much as the next person but who wants to buy a cheaper model coloured red or blue when you'll most likely want to always go back to black.
Even stores such as Homebase are getting in on the act so if you see a red door today, you do have the power to paint it black, and at a ridiculously silly price too.
If you happen to come across a wild scary mob getting a little too excited in the supermarket aisles today, try calming yourself by imagining a supermassive black hole for them to fall into.
Unfortunately unless you have a little black submarine to hide in, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape the Black Friday frenzy. It's all around us and will be here for many more years to come.
My advice to you all is to download all these songs onto your personal musical device of choice and go find that deal you never wanted before the black hole sun sets in the sky later on today.
