thisgirl at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Mon 03 Mar
Maybe its something to do with the cold Glasgow air, or maybe the magic number of today’s date, but tonight, thisGIRL are just the right band; the only band anyone should want to see tonight. Hey, at least I can say I spent the evening being entertained by the band that invited the whole aud»
Jerry-Built, Sucioperro at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Sat 15 Mar
If all was right with the world, Sucioperro would not be merely known as Biffy Clyro's Ayrshire neighbours. True, Sucio are also masters of the quiet/loud brand of rock, not to mention beautiful three way harmonies and achingly raw guitar lines, but they are not mere Clyro copyists - they are leagues ahe»
(Review of nothing)
The stage is a cloud of smoke. Singer Bobby Hecksher is a dark figure,
left of centre, swaying like Neil Young on acid, while other Warlocks
intermittently fade in and out of view, hiding behind their brain-meltingly
ecstatic drone. People are getting lost in it completely.

The Blueskins at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Mon 07 Jul
The Blueskins clamber onstage like they’re not quite sure what the hell they’re doing here. Bassist Maff Smith looks like a rabbit in headlights. But there’s not much to fear because it’s Sunday and people have work in the morning, so it’s left to the curious to sample what’s on offer. The Blueskins consi»
Biffy Clyro at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Thu 10 Jul
Today may as well be a Sunday. The 300-strong congregation arrive in droves, to worship at the altar (of rock). Wine, amongst other things, is drunk, in the hope that it may pass the time until the moment arrives; 'the moment' being what these kids have been waiting on »
Chikinki at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Thu 31 Jul
Chikinki should volunteer for Channel 4’s ‘Faking It’. Onstage they are shy and assuming as they wait to begin their set, but when they do kick off there’s no stopping them; the nerves have disappeared as the adrenaline takes over. The first song has barely had enough time to make an impact and singer Rup»
The Holiday Plan at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Mon 26 Jan
....gloriously wholesome pop tunes like this should be all over the radio, like flies on poo....»
Trans Am at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Wed 28 Apr
“Yeah, they’ve kinda returned to their old ‘Red Line’chuggy stuff” muses a beard at the bar. “Thank God”. Aww. Why did no one like 'TA' Trans Am’s 2002 rattle through ‘80’s cheese? Planes had flown into buildings, George W had unleashed his Holy War and an LP which sounded like Har Mar Superstar minus the sleazoid wit and slick dance moves seemed frivolous as well as disappointingly anaemic, that’s why, pardner.»
Fans Of Kate at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Tue 16 Aug
With shows so delightfully captivating, foot-tapping and jaw-dropping, someone's sure to offer the lads a proper deal sooner or later. Until then, does anyone know of any decent bootlegs doing the rounds?»
El-P at Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Fri 05 Oct
“Oh, it’s gonna be one of those shows tonight?” El-P cracks a satisfied grin in the general direction of the carnage. With fake blood trickling from his brow, he surveys the damage already on the ground, ignores the quickly peeling masking tape which seems to hold the sound monitor above his head together and instead chooses to focus on the horizon of flailing arms and ranting faces placed somewhere in-between...»
