Well, well. Exactly five years since the first real entry, I’m back where it all began – reviewing Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. The black sheep of Oasis albums, the one that is as marmite as they come, and the one that I actually have tried to re-review twice since the initial entry. IContinue reading “Entry #50 – Standing on the Shoulder of Giants – Revisited, re-evaluated, and rebuilt (a.k.a Coming full circle)”

Entry #49 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: June and July 2025 (a.k.a The Dimery Files, part one)
So there was no monthly entry for June because I had a pretty heavy time in terms of work, meaning I couldn’t really be arsed to sit down and flick some music on. That being said, I did have time for one particular single and it is: The Molotovs, Today’s Gonna Be Our Day WhenContinue reading “Entry #49 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: June and July 2025 (a.k.a The Dimery Files, part one)”
Entry #46 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: April 2025 (a.k.a Rekindling Affairs)

Entry #41 – The Ballad of Darren (a.k.a ‘Life’)
It’s fine. It’s a fine album. Nothing groundbreaking, no new Parklife or anything like that. But then again it doesn’t really need to be. Blur had already accomplished what they set out to do decades ago. Anything we get these days we should consider ourselves lucky for. And I’m glad we got them back justContinue reading “Entry #41 – The Ballad of Darren (a.k.a ‘Life’)”
Entry #39 – Be Here Now (a.k.a This review took 1000 days to publish, I kid ye not)
Hello from the past. I’m writing this at the same time I’m typing up the review for Standing on the Shoulder of Giants and normally I would just wait until I’ve done one before I move on to the other. Because the day I’m writing this is 21st August 2020, the 23rd anniversary of theContinue reading “Entry #39 – Be Here Now (a.k.a This review took 1000 days to publish, I kid ye not)”
