Paul Weller – As Is Now
The Modfather (which he really isn’t of course, but let’s say that he might be a Modson at least), returns with his best offering in years, getting back as far as his own roots, with […]
Year: 2005
Albums
Thoughts And Words – Thoughts And Words
After the pre-Thoughts and post-Words collection of recordings (both out on Radioactive … see review elsewhere on these pages), here comes the only official Pandamonium longplayer … more than worth the wait too! After being […]
Albums
The Maharajas – A Third Opinion
Along with The Embrooks, definitely the purveyors of the best that the moderndaze ‘60s-garage revival can offer. With every new release, it seems that bassist Ulf is taking over the songwriting credits more and more, […]
Albums
Various Artists – New Rubble Vol. 1
– My First Day Without You – It’s been quite a while since we had some NEW Rubbles to “throw” around, and with the re-emergence of Past & Present under the guidance of the Radioactive […]

Another one of some vintage. The title captures the overall tone of this collection: moody, languid with a touch of regret. The contributors are primarily from the Great White North (Canada to those of you […]
Albums
The Knockout Pills – 1 + 1=ATE
I think these guys might have taken my steamroller comment in reference to their first album to heart. This, their second heaping, seems even more flat out, with barely a breath taken or room given […]
Albums
Jarvis Humby – Assume The position It’s… Jarvis Humby
The fact that they’re being hailed as the only moderndaze band from Britain to play Little Steven’s Underground Garage Festival, actually speaks more about Little Steven not being informed very well about the British scene, […]
