 | Sine Star Project @ The Joiners Arms, 20th February 2008 - Sine Star Project
'Apparently, The Brit Awards were on the TV tonight. If there was any justice in the world Sine Star Project would be massive and the bucket full of crap that currently infests the airwaves would be flushed down the toilet into the septic tank where it belongs!' |
 | Good Shoes & Vince Vincent and the Villians Live in Brighton - Good Shoes
'Good Shoes are by no means polished, accomplished performers. Each song and each band member is a nervous bundle of insecurity, not quite managing to assert themselves. However, they do manage to endear. Rapid two-minute songs bursts by until suddenly 45 minutes have past, the band have departed and you realise they were really rather good' |
 | Foals Live @ Lennons - Foals
Hugging their guitars high and whipping fast from side to side, this band reminds me of a forest in a storm. |
 | Plan B @ The University - Plan B
'Like those Christmas dinners, then, it might be a bit uncomfortable at the time but you will leave glad that the host was so earnest and, ultimately, feeling that you were very fortunate indeed to have been there' |

The Twang LIVE @ The Engine Rooms - The Twang
'Stepping into Engine Rooms is like being transported to another era. Where are all the women? It’s a gentlemen only club, except the men are all drinking Stella and there isn’t a cigar in sight' | Echobeat LIVE @ The Joiners - Echobeat
'If you saw Echobeat a year ago and thought they were rubbish, go see them again. The new line-up, with its armoury of heavy riffs, tight harmonies and impressive collection of “rock tunes you can dance to” is surely only a lucky break away from a record deal.' | Prinzhorn Dance School Live @ The Funktion Rooms - Prinzhorn Dance School
Sometimes a band can be so exciting they just inspire people to pick up an instrument and play. This band does exactly that, but only because you know you couldn’t possibly be any worse than the noise heard tonight' | Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and The Killers Live in Brighton - The Killers
'Sam’s Town rolls into Brighton, a juggernaut of glitter and glam. This isn’t a gig, it’s a concert; a carnival of showbiz fresh from the Las Vegas strip the band calls home' | Howling Bells Live in Brighton - Howling Bells
A disappointingly ordinary band that plays rather than performs. |
