Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions
So the long await is now over for our favourite scotsmen and once again they have delivered an exceptionally great record. The only problem I have is I still seem to prefer Puzzle making this a sort of anti climax. But the songs will eventually sink in at one point, so for now I'll say thumbs up Biffy.
Weezer - Raditude
It actually took me quite a while to completely dig this album fully especially after the excellent Red Album but thankfully most of the songs have clicked. "Put Me Back Together" is just another reminder of how fondly we all love Weezer. Also "Tripping Down The Freeway" and "In The Mall" are personal highlights.
Dead Confederate - Wrecking Ball
A recent discovery for me and I have to say this is a fine display of alt rock at its best. They have a very Manchester Orchestra vibe going on which is always pleasing to the ears. We can only hope for more material to surface.
Johnny Foreigner - Grace And The Bigger Picture
Having been slightly weary about them when they first came onto the scene, looking further into their music has helped me realise how interesting their sound is. With more happy jangly guitars in place, this certainly was worth a purchase and for the most part, an enjoyable record.
Orko - Creating Short Fiction
Yet another scottish act in stock with the cost of only two pounds from Banquet Records, it was an interesting purchase to say the least. The sound is very Biffy Clyro-esque but with a lot of atmosphere to add. Having released this in 2006, they have gone no further but however they have some upcoming shows hinting a sign of new material on the way.
