Akala - Shakespeare
Not only does Akala fuse hip-hop and rock with a conviction that marks
him down as a true one-off he also adds in the secret ingredient of
lyrics and raps that are sheer urban poetry. |

Atari Teenage Riot - Best Of
Berlin’s hardcore headcases Atari Teenage Riot release the choicest
cuts of an incendiary career that was cut tragically short in 2002.
Idiosyncratic to the last, ATR’s hybrid of techno, gabba, slicing
guitar riffs, guttural shouting and radical politics all add up to an
unforgettable experience. |

Bob Sinclar - World Hold On
Pumping Gallic house of the highest order that, while defying and
taunting you to sit still throughout, serves as a means to usher in
the long-anticipated Western Dream album. |
|
Jehst Presents - Underworld Epics
One of the
most prolific rappers in the UK, Jehst’s conscious couplets are
propelled by the bleak urban reality that formed the backdrop to his
youth. Hard-hitting without sacrificing accessibility, Underworld
Epics is an essential addition to your MP3 player. |

Feeder - Lost And Found
A decade from their first appearance, power trio Feeder have lost none
of their appetite for generating speaker-shredding rock tempered by
moments of reflection. Lost & Found sticks to their tried and tested
formula while pointing the way forward. |
|
Archie
Bronson Outfit - Dead Funny
Evoking the spirit of the legendary Gun Club,
Archie Bronson Outfit keep the flame of voodoo blues well and truly
alive with enormous slab of filthy, bourbon-soaked ramalama that goes
some way to explaining why they’ve been nominated for this year’s Mojo
Best Newcomer Award. |
