Play of the day is twenty years for Twenty 2

TWENTY2 was a very active live band from 1999 to 2007, playing shows & touring with many fellow hardcore melodians, The Dudes of Hazzard is now available for download and pre-order on vinyl

Live and Direct – Elvis Costello

Costello and Steve Nieve curated a two hour set of classic songs over the past 4 decades. Nieve on keyboards, mouth organ and whatever you’re having yourself provided the perfect musical accompaniment as Elvis’s voice shone through at times. Shipbuilding had me close to tears along with beautiful versions of Veronika and She. 

Play of the day shaped like a melon

"It's at least comforting and often even life-saving to know that you're not alone, that you're not the only person feeling overwhelmed by injustice, abuse of power and all the shit that happens everywhere, but that you're among like-minded people who share the same attitude and morals."

Play of the day is burning through

Three years since Burnt Tapes have released some music and they return with Hannah Hermione Greenwood on Vextra vocal duties. this time round it's a look into many of the darker emotions happening. Emotions that we can't ignore but need each other to help get through them.

Play of the day is not Hollow

When they are left along as songs they can be singalong numbers like the poppier end of Jeff Rosenstock and I find my head nodding along aggressively and looking forward to the next bridge. When he raps it gets a bit too samey but there's no doubting MacDonalds credentials. 6 pop punk songs with a but a rap that are emotionally heartfelt for the player and the listener

Get on your bikes and nab this

While their future was unwritten at the time Chester and Barrett have created many glorious moments since getting off that bike but now the band have been able to get their recorded output and have it ready for the new way of listening. Available now to stream you can find it in all its glory on the usual mind numbing streaming services.

Play of the day puts some extraa in your life

Extraas second album is now out for your delight, and as people put their phones in their pockets alighting the train for their days trivialities I wish they had some extraa in them for the day. It would help.
