Today I’m going to be reacting to the band we, The Darkness, decided to support us for the UK leg of our Permission to Land tour this year. It’s Bad Nerves! I love these guys, let me tell you why! You can watch @badnerves music video in full here: https://youtu.be/eWJ2lhsjIwE […]
Today I’m reacting to Jacob Collier’s latest song WELLLL. Jacob has been on my radar for a while now but I haven’t reacted to any of his work before. He is considered one of the most talented musicians of his generations, being a multi-instrumentalist, singer, composer and also songwriter for […]
Today I’m reacting to @SophieLloyd’s new single featuring my dear friend Michael Starr, the lead singer of Steel Panther! The song is called “Runaway” and it was only released yesterday. Some of you may already be aware of Sophie Lloyd, she’s an incredible guitar player but now she’s releasing new […]
I am vindicated. It’s true. The science is in. Modern music is getting worse since the 1960s! However, we have information on WHY this is happening. It’s not just as simple as new musicians aren’t “good” but rather a couple of factors that are controlling what the music industry is […]
I’m back discussing @vboysstockholm’s new song “Troglodyte”. I covered them once before, but the song was VERY different. Josh Homme has also said that they are one of his current favourite bands, why? What is it about Viagra Boys that’s so appealing to listen to? Do you like ’em? You […]

I have a confession to make…I think I might be an elitist snob. Today I’m debating whether or not elitism has any role to play in music, culture and the music business? Should we feel shame for the music we listen to? I’m here with my producer Jenny May Finn […]
Today is an interesting one. We’re going to listen to UK punk band Soft Play’s song “Punk’s Dead” which addresses the outrage people had when they changed their name from Slaves. What do you think? Is punk dead or are they keeping it alive? You can watch @softplayband’s music video […]
Today I’m reacting to two Brazilian brothers who are a band called Banda Al9. This might be a little unusual to do, but they seem to be garnering some attention online, particularly for the use of my special clapping sequence. What do you think? Are they the Brazilian Beatles? Would […]
I had no idea that Keanu Reeves was a bassist in a rock band called Dogstar. So, today I’m going to listen to his band @DogstarBand’s single Breach that came out this year. Did you know he was a rockstar too?! You can watch Dogstar’s music video for Breach here: […]
