ENTER SHIKARI: Snakepit.They’ve thrown everything into this snakepit – screamcore, mutant hip hop, mutilated drum ‘n’ bass, and good old thrash rock ‘n’ roll before topping it all off with a final chorus you can join in with.
ERASURE: When I Start To (Break It All Down).Midtempo synth semi ballad that’ll ruffle no feathers as it stomps its way inexorably around the dancefloor.
THE OVERTONES: Second Last Chance.The snazzy dressed ones are off on a mainly sold out tour this month. Let’s hope they don’t regard this present day nod to the early 70s Detroit sound as ideal for their encore. Best to slip it in the middle somewhere. It’s just OK, not a KO.
ALL THE YOUNG: Quiet Night In.They’ve recently supported Morrissey,The Courteeners and Hard-Fi and you don’t get those kind of slots without proving something. Cracking Brit rock pop that proves they’re going to be around for a long while.
