43144
The London folk circuit seems to have seen more heartbreak than a fat person's cardiologist. Tonight's performance proves that Laura Marling is the most delicate bloom in this bruised bouquet by far, and she shines, dazzlingly, for almost two hours.]]>

43938
(k)no(w)here isn't a party album, but for all its gloominess it's never dour or dispiriting. On the contrary, it's the sound of the Baltimore art-rock four-piece Wilderness expressing a sense of faith in the transformative power of art.]]>

31532
The Goldfrapp Paradox: They now have an equally balanced catalogue of loud ones / quiet songs, but the two can't really coexist together live. It’s not the band's fault as such, you just need a patient audience, and this wasn’t one of them. ]]>

Avant-metal outfit Nadja typical track length is 19 minutes. Surprisingly, though, this was quite the nicest, fluffiest, loveliest evening I’ve spent at a gig in a long time.]]>
