Biggles Flys Again w/ The David Nelligan Thing – The Roundy, Cork, 05.04.13
“Irony won’t save you from anything; humour doesn’t do anything at all. You can look at life ironically for years, maybe decades; there are people who seem to go through most of their lives seeing the funny side, but in the end, life always breaks your heart.” ― Michel Houellebecq Photos: Rickard Farrell I am...

A new club event makes its first appearance in Cork this week – we can get a glimpse of the thinking behind it in this Top 5 (sounds good to us, let’s get behind it and make that shit regular…so to speak… – Ed.) 5. The Altered Hours – Flowers Die A favourite among local...

The G-Man is quickly proving adept at putting on some great shows in Cork. Hot on the trail of Little X’s for Eyes and Yawning Chasm comes a double act in The Roundy. Local lads The Great Balloon Race shared the bill with Dublin’s Hello Moon to deliver a cracking evening’s entertainment. Things kicked off...
Hello Moon / The Great Balloon Race at The Roundy
One of the best performances of the NOISE Weekender was given by Cork band The Great Balloon Race. It was my first time seeing them live – having enjoyed stalking their bandcamp for some time – and they really brought it, as they say in the business. A little birdie told me over the weekend...

Office Playlist: Fear Stalks The Land – Myra EP
Electronic post rock, they’re calling this. Delirious and freewheeling Intelligent Dance Music, you could also say. From the noodling sensibility turned dance noise fest of ‘Dance like a skeleton’, to the euphoric avant rock vibe of ‘If I had wheels I’d be a wagon’, ear worms are all around this EP. It sounds to me...
Fear Stalks The Land – Top 5
Ahead of their EP launch next week, FSTL lay some tunes on us… 1. Sleep party People – 10 Feet Up Daz: Shaun and I went to Roskilde festival in Denmark a few years back. Great Festival. During the days of warm-up they have just one stage with upcoming Scandinavian bands. We made a couple...

Just wanted to let you know that we are playing next Friday Sept 14th in Gulpd with Carried by Waves. It is the first gig since the release of Giallo so...
Hidden Highways/Yawning Chasm – Gigs you don’t want to miss
When I think back over the years (there are so many of them), I realise that my life is littered with the gigs I missed. I’m not talking about those familiar out-of-reach gigs – that Féile that you couldn’t get to cos, I dunno, you bought the ticket with your girlfriend/boyfriend and then you broke...
