He was drunk and exhausted but he was critically acclaimed and respected

The Apples / Buzzin About
Israeli funk-and-turntables outfit, includes their brilliant cover of RATM’s ‘Killing In The Name’

Johnny Foreigner / Waited Up ‘Til It Was Light
Debut album from Brum 3-piece

Blood Red Shoes / Box Of Secrets
Girl/boy 2-piece from Brighton. A bit Young Knives, a bit Johnny Foreigner. Works for me.

Portishead / Third
If this isn’t doing it for you, try listening to it REALLY LOUD. Makes a difference.

Frank Turner / Love, Ire And Song
A slightly folkier, more introspective album than last year’s ‘Sleep Is For The Week’, but no less affecting or though-provoking for it.
