Of course if you pre-order it using my link HERE then I stand a small chance of winning a signed guitar which I will let you look at from time to time or even a local gig from the band. So please do.

IC1s debut single "Levitate" OUT TODAY. Check 'em out.




I've said many times recenly that we're currently experiencing good times as far as new bands and music goes.  One of the most exciting prospects for the next couple of years are definitely IC1s.  Formed in London barely a year ago, their reputation is growing rapidly from word of mouth and today sees the release of the brilliant official debut single "Levitate".   If you've not heard this song yet or the demo version that's been floating around, you will be hooked from the second the drums kick in. 

IC1s are not all hype and talk though.  They have the songs to back up their reputation and already have some high profile fans.  Alan McGee can't stop talking about them and The Libertine's Gary Powell has put the Levitate single out on his "25 Hour Convenience" record label.  The band have also shared a stage with some big names already including The Cribs and The Charlatans.

I see only big things ahead for IC1s (no pun intended) and I can't wait to experience them live and to hear more material. (Check the SoundCloud link below for some demos)

Chek 'em out. Get involved.  See them play...

LEVITATE is available now on iTunes HERE (BUY IT TODAY!)

There are more tracks to listen to HERE on the band's SoundCloud page.

Some good live vids available on their YouTube page HERE

808 STATE - Blueprint - The Best Of . On iTunes NOW.

Blueprint ZTT Salvo sleeve


If you know anything about Dance music or House music or if you journeyed anywhere near Manchester in the late 80s to early 90s then you already know that 808 State are the Dance DJ House Music Kings (I just made that up.) They have produced some of the most anthemic Dance / House tracks out there as well as writing and producing for numerous other artists. 

BLUEPRINT is titled as "The Best of 808 State" and it is completely excellent, but there is no way that you could put the best of 808 State on a 17 track album.  However.  If you know 808 State then this is an excellent addition.  If you don't know them then this is an excellent starting point.

Go and buy it TODAY!!

Available on iTines HERE

12 DIRTY BULLETS - New Single "MOTOWN" - OUT TODAY!


The first new material from the amazing 12 DIRTY BULLETS since their debut album "Downsides To Making A Living" is out TODAY!

If you've had your head in a shed for the last couple of years and haven't experienced 12 DIRTY BULLETS yet, either live or recorded, then you need to remedy this now. So far the band have been running parallel to the success that is inevitable and that they undoubtedly warrant and deserve but one day soon the world will tire of the mindless drivel that is currently filling the charts and the airwaves and the great British guitar band will return to the fore. 12 DIRTY BULLETS are definitely one of the bands that will be up there leading the charge and they will switch lanes into the mainstream and the world will take notice. Bring it on.

The first new ammunition for the battle ahead is "MOTOWN", the first release from the band's as yet unnamed second album. Another perfectly crafted rock 'n roll song that makes your mouth water as a taster for what's coming on the album.  The chorus almost serves as a warning that 12 DIRTY BULLETS are coming to take over the world town by town. "We go Motown in YOUR town..." and you better listen or be left behind with your Beyonce and N-Dubz CDs.

MOTOWN along with the few other new songs that the band have been playing live recently make for exciting times ahead. Times in which the band are going to be playing plenty of live dates around the world for you to catch a glimpse of them up close and to experience the band, the OUTSTANDING old songs and the AMAZING new songs before the album hits the streets.

Get involved. Get the song, Get the album. See the band. Motown in YOUR Town. Soon!

Motown is available on iTunes HERE
Downsides To Making A Living (album) is available on iTunes HERE
The 12 DIRTY BULLETS FaceBook page is HERE

UK tour dates will be anounced VERY SOON so watch this space. The currently anounced American dates are available HERE

Spread the word.
