Love Amongst Ruin - Love Amongst Ruin
Love Amongst Ruin, AKA Steve Hewitt from Placebo’s new band. We all remember Placebo; those dark, angsty rockers that delighted us in the late 90s with gems like Nancy Boy and Pure Morning. Amongst their tracks there was always a slick, modern gloss of cool lacquered over a beating heart that hinted at something much more grim and mysterious. And so it’s only natural that Hewitt’s new efforts...
My interview with Nathan from The Wanted
Hi Nathan! You and the band are all in your teens or early 20s, how did it feel having your single All Time Low get to Number 1 at such a young age?
It was crazy because we’re all fairly young and it just came from nowhere. We didn’t expect to get a number one at all; we’d have loved to have even just got top 40. The single kept going up and up on iTunes and held out through the week. It’s just...

The Saturdays - Headlines
Do you know what I love about The Saturdays? They’re fun. Anyone who’s seen their recent ITV2 documentary series will understand the sheer sense of enthusiasm and happiness that seems to infuse everything Rochelle, Mollie, Frankie, Una and Vanessa do. And that includes their music. So, when the time came for the girls to release their third album, you’d be inclined to expect a glossy collection...
My thoughts on Seven Days
So, Channel 4’s new ‘reality’ show Seven Days kicked off tonight and i have to admit, after sitting through an hour of it, the impression it left on me was a positive one.
It got off to a shaky start, but that’s partly to just how alien it felt to begin with. There’s a loose unstructured-ness to it that is highly unsettling at times, the lack of any kind of...
Sorry U2, but the Sats rock the whole ‘sitting on chairs’ looks way better than you.

My thoughts on The Wanted
So, The Wanted are Number 1 and Twitter has been going pretty crazy over them recently and despite not really paying much attention to the hype/attention/mass hysteria over them until recently, i’ve found myself slowly warming to them and their debut track.
Met ‘em last week at Radio 1 and they were really nice, always a plus point for popstars. And as for their single, well,...

Y’know how people always talk about albums that signify a certain time of their lives? Well, for me, Dannii Minogue’s Complete Collection DVD is kinda like that. I’ll always remember how it came in the post just before i left the house to go for the interview for my first ever paid job.
As most of you will know, i’m a massive Dannii fan and her music videos are just...
My favorite book
Two things: 1) I read a LOT when i was growing up. 2) I don’t think i have a favourite book. See, i LOVE series of books. I just really like the way they allow you to follow a character and the way they grow and change beyond the confines of just one novel.
Now, one of my favourite authors is Stephen King. I’ve read loads of his books and on the whole they’re mostly always...
My favorite movie
The Shawshank Redemption
Now, this one’s a lot easier. My fave film has always, without a doubt, been The Shawshank Redemption. Most of the polls on TV, internet surveys etc. always rank it highly and on this occasion, they’re right. I don’t think any other film captures raw emotion and the various facets of the human condition as well as Shawshank does.
The friendship...
My favorite song
New Order - True Faith
There’s a lot of tracks that could fill the criteria for my favourite ever track, but this is probably the one that i’ll go back and listen to again and again on my iPod. At its heart it’s an incredibly simple song but there’s just something about it that i love.
From the iconic drum opening to the synths, and of course that amazing chorus, in my...
One of my favourite Cheryl quotes...
“My big plan is to not plan ahead. You can organise stuff in advance, but you never know what will happen. I could go to the shops, fall over, hurt my ankle and end up in hospital. I didn’t intend to go to the hospital, I wanted to go to the shops. One of my new year resolutions was to have a positive frame of mind and stop worrying so much, to live every moment and take life as it...

MP’s complaining over not being able to claim first class train tickets on expenses anymore:
Among the most vocal critics of this plan is Conservative MP Nicholas Winterton, who has suggested passengers who travel in standard class are “a totally different type of people”.

Yet another reason why the Conservatives are tossers....
