• Kings and Queens Sunday 18 March 2012

  Na bekende series als Thunderdome, Masters of Hardcore en Hardcore To The Bone is er weer een nieuw concept met een dubbel-cd: Kings And Queens.

• Ash - 1977 Wednesday 07 March 2012

  If ever a band was the sound of fruity alcopops, Ash might well have been it on 1977.

  There are albums that define generations, and there are those that will forever soundtrack a flash rather than a lingering resonance heard across the years. Ash’s debut LP, named in honour of the year Star Wars hit cinema screens and ‘opened’ (unless you had a CD copy with two hidden tracks at the beginning – this writer did) by the scream of a TIE Fighter, falls face-first into the latter category, sauce from last night’s takeaway still sticky on its chin and with a less-than-faint whiff of booze about it.

• Rory Gallagher - Tattoo Tuesday 28 February 2012

  The perfect introduction to a guitar legend and a feast for hardened fans.

  Until his untimely death in 1995 aged just 47, Rory Gallagher gave the world a unique brand of blues rock which could bounce from barnstorming to bewitching to just plain beautiful with but a flick of the great man’s wrist. Celebrating 40 years since the start of his solo career, Rory’s first six albums have been overhauled, lovingly re-mastered and completed with liner notes from, amongst others, brother and former tour manager Donal Gallagher.

• Band Of Skulls - Sweet Sour Monday 27 February 2012

  Wie een sportauto bezit, zal het lekker vinden om lange stukken volgas vooruit te snellen. In het spitsuur in een grote stad heb je echter niks aan al die paardenkrachten. Precies zó klinkt het tweede album van Band Of Skulls.

• Sinéad O’Connor - How About I Be Me (And You Be You)? Monday 27 February 2012

  The Irish songbird's best album in years is full of vim and vigour.

  After seeming to disappear for a few years, Sinéad O'Connor has recently become a gift to Google Alerts. There's been the on-off marriage to a drug counsellor she met on Twitter, two reported suicide attempts, and several bloggy splurges pertaining to her sex life for which the acronym "T.M.I." could have been invented. Her own, somewhat quaint description of this behaviour? "Acting batty".

• Die Hard - Die Hard Monday 20 February 2012

  Expect this Glasgow-based band’s singularly sinister sounds to flourish in the gloom.

  Something of a chicken and egg situation presents itself to every newly formed band. To tour first, firming up a foundation of finely honed live material; or to record, isolating yourself and risking eventually playing your pored-over creations to an audience of none? Studio-exclusive concoctions have an annoying habit of translating poorly to on-stage execution, so Glasgow band Die Hard’s decision to spend nine months of 2011 working on this debut LP was either taken based on incredible confidence or hindering nervousness – either they were sure these works would sound as alive under spot lights, or so significant were their doubts about performing to a crowd that retreat was the best form of attack.

• Meat Loaf - Hell in a Handbasket Friday 17 February 2012

  A political statement? From Meat Loaf? Well, yes. And no. But mostly no.

  If we are to assume that Meat Loaf, who doesn't author his own material, has some influence over the conceptual weave of his albums, then we must also assume that his writers were commissioned to write songs reflecting not only his personal malaise, but also his anger at the madness of the modern world.
