Jonny Ash - Rosies

I listen to lots of new music. Lets face it there's only so many times you can listen to a Arctic Monkeys or Oasis playlist before you need to freshen things up! Twitter is a fabulous tool for unearthing new music, unsinged bands and real, real talented individuals and every now and again you'll hit the jackpot like I did on Tuesday night with my first listen of Jonny Ash new single Rosies.  

Currently unsigned the four lads from Wrexham are chucking their latest work out into the world tomorrow (June 10th) and I'm anticipating the twitter world (and non twitter) to enjoy it as much as I did. Let's get the word out! 

There's real raspy Liam Gallagher-esque intimate vocals here complimented by some serious guitar riffs. As the song crescendos things only get louder and if you can stop yourself air guitaring - well you're a stronger man then I am. The song portrays a story of a bad experience in a nightclub but coming to terms with the difficult situation. The lyrics are heartfelt and meaningful and the pre-chorus really lifts you into a space before the crowd pleasing sing along "I'm not going to Rosies again" lyrics belt out. I honestly can't recommend these guys enough I'm seriously impressed. 

Check the guys out on twitter @Jonnyashband and make sure you download Rosies tomorrow on all your usual streaming services. Keep up the good work lads and I'll be keeping a eye out for some live dates in the future.

Fontaines DC - Starburster

 Three days ago a ninety second video was posted on the bands socials (see link below) A homage to The Shining where green gunge oozes from a set of elevator doors as the slow, melodic opening verse of a song from the bands new album Romance seeps through the screen. Fontaines DC are back and on Wednesday night they debuted their first single from the forthcoming said album.  Starburster is bigger, more chaotic and louder then anything the band have ever done before. Elements where shown to us on Skinty Fia their excellent third album (and my record of the year 2022  My Top 10 Albums Of The Year 2022 (oldyellowbricks.co.uk)  ) where the title track dabbled in this kind of hip hop, transcendent sound that is all so prominent in this new single. It's not to far fetched to say there's elements of Moby, Massive Attack maybe even Fat Boy Slim here as the band possibly venture into new territory with producer James Ford at the helm rather than Dan Carey who has produc...

My Top 10 Movies Of The Year 2023

 10) Empire Of Light (Sam Mendes) I believe this is the first movie Sam Mendes has both written and directed and it shows. Normally I don't think this movie would make it into my top ten of the year but for some reason this film left me with a nostalgic feeling that I still have to this day. Perhaps it's because it was the first movie of the year I saw in the cinema or because it's a ode to British cinema and seaside towns it just left something with me.  Olivia Coleman as usual is bloody fantastic as Hilary, duty manager at the Empire Cinema. She's a troubled woman with bipolar disorder, something that wasn't particularly recognised in the 80's (movie is set in 1980) who's having a affair with her married boss who's clearly manipulating the situation. Stephen a new employee at the cinema, a young black guy bonds with Hilary over their love of cinema and they begin a behind closed doors relationship. Stephen suffers horrific abuse from the disgusting ski...

Arctic Monkeys Albums Ranked

First of all I'd like to say I'm a massive Arctic Monkeys fan. I remember downloading "Dance Floor" from Limewire (remember that?) as news spread about this cool new band from Sheffield playing music in a way we'd never heard before and it really did feel like that, one of those generationally bands that only come around once in a while. Damon Albarn recently said that AM are the last great rock band and I do think he has a point here as I'm struggling to think of any band since that has had such a profound effect on the industry? Here I rank all seven of their albums and my reasoning. If you enjoy this read please take a look at my other posts and share this blog on your socials.  Twitter handle: @AdBartTheSecond     7) Suck It And See - 2011 James Ford Whatever record came bottom of my list I'm sure there will be some who disagree and I fully understand because really AM haven't made a bad   record have they? For me Suck It And See is the one I just ...
