My Precious


The Mysterines were the best thing that happened to me in 2022. The minute I listened to Hung Up I fell in love with Reeling. Or with Lia. It’s a grey area.

Since then, I’ve been possessed by their darkness. Just wrapped in her voice and those magnificent drums cutting through the powerful guitar riffs. Addictive stuff. 

Their new album is out (Afraid of Tomorrows) and The Last Dance is a delicious amuse-bouche. 

‘If only you take my hand…’


I think we all would.

Yes!

O h you beautiful amazing fucking man.  White’s single handedly responsible for the great health of classic rock & roll in our generation and he’s not stopping (thank god).  His new album, no name, is a collection of rock anthems. It’s Jack telling us all that he’s still a badass (and the second best rock guitar player alive).  Everything is pitch perfect but what a tune is Old Scratch Blues. Pure gold.  ‘Nothing in this world is free, at least not for me’  As Kele once said, I’ll pay for you, anytime.  Listen here

Poetry

Make no mistake, Szmierek is a poet. A good one at it. He’s trying hard, but getting somewhere. I appreciate that.  The vibe is good, the lyrics are brilliant and the songs bangers. It’s The Streets meets Jamie XX (kind of).  It's what you get when the beats find the poetry, magic. ‘Did you ever learn the words to Auld Lang Syne? I didn't but I really missed ya Achingly so’  Just magic.  Watch here.  His new single is out too. And it’s more of the good stuff. Listen here

Definition of Cool

Little Simz is cool. She is what cool means. It’s all so smooth. Butter on toast. Red wine with a nice steak. She’s explosive, introspective, smart, strong, talented. Let me know when you find something she’s not good at. I’ve only recently discovered her music (thanks Pete!) but God i’ve listened to everything, repeatedly. Sometimes I might be introvert being one of the best albums of the last decade. Hands down.  Now stop what you’re doing, get a beverage (alcoholic please, don’t be a looser) and enjoy these deliciously cool 20 minutes. https://youtu.be/Nkt93coQzqg? si=KdhS_QVorJSdqIwy
