Method, madness and murder

David Bowie | 1. Outside

2 March 2023
When you think of David Bowie, whatโ€™s the first album that comes to mind?ย  Is it โ€œHunky Doryโ€? ย  Or, โ€œThe Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardustโ€?ย  ย  Maybe itโ€™s โ€œHeroesโ€. ย  Itโ€™s unlikely to be โ€œOutsideโ€ (1. Outside and subtitled The Nathan Adler Diaries: A Hyper-cycle). ย  Bowieโ€™s 20th studio album was released in September 1995. It may have been a comeback from his decline in the 80s with the flop of โ€œTonightโ€, but it is rarely mentioned when discussing the iconโ€™s best work.ย  ย  There is a lot to unpack with this concept album, from method to madness

Music Maketh Movie | The Royal Tenenbaums

elliott smith | needle in the hay

7 February 2023
Is there anything better than hearing a song you love in a movie? Especially, when the scene encapsulates or even elevates the meaning of the songโ€ฆ    I remember being ecstatic when watching The Royal Tenenbaums. Not only is it a movie by one of my favourite directors (Wes Anderson) but it had some of my favourite songs slotted in it. I mean, you know it is going to be a good-en when the movie kicks off with a track from The Beatles.    Here are just a few of the tunes in the film:    Hey Jude (instrumentals) by

The Power of a Cover | All Along the Watchtower

Jimi Hendrix | all along the watchtower

24 January 2023
โ€˜All Along The Watchtowerโ€™ was released on Jimi Hendrixโ€™s 1968ย  album โ€˜Electric Ladyland.โ€™ The song is a cover of Bob Dylanโ€™s original, of the same name, which was released a year prior. Both versions are extremely distinct. Nonetheless, it is as iconic as it is today because of Hendrix, who mixed Dylanโ€™s lyrics with signature guitar work, with a combination of blues and rock elements. ย  Even Dylan commented โ€œit overwhelmed me, really. He had such talent, he could find things inside a song and vigorously develop them. He found things that other people wouldn’t think of finding in there.โ€

Divinely Feminine

FKA twigs | MAGDALENE

17 October 2022
FKA twigโ€™s โ€˜MAGDALENEโ€™ had me bewitched from the very first listen. The album is feminine, with a mesmerising mix of spiritual energy, vulnerability and tragedy. MAGDALENE is not only a break-up album but an exploration of her emotions regarding her health, as she had six fibroid tumours removed from her uterus. As a result, her โ€œconfidence as a woman was knockedโ€. As you can imagine, each song is filled with soulโ€ฆย  The most famous track โ€˜cellophaneโ€™ was the first song by the artist in 3 years. The lyrics share a vulnerable recollection of her relationship with Robert Patterson. While a

The Northern Punk Poet

John Cooper Clarke | I Wanna Be Yours

13 September 2022
When I was younger, I was a bit of a โ€˜Tumblrโ€™ kid. I loved Alex Turner, angsty songs and winged eyeliner (honestly, not much has changed). Naturally, โ€˜AMโ€™ by Arctic Monkeys was one of the main soundtracks to my teenage years, with the iconic โ€˜Do I Wanna Knowโ€™, โ€˜Arabellaโ€™ and of course โ€˜I Wanna Be Yoursโ€™ playing in my earphones in a melodramatic attempt to romanticise my train rides to schoolโ€ฆย ย  For years, I did not know that โ€˜I Wanna Be Yoursโ€™ was a cover of a song by punk poet John Cooper Clarke. Embarrassingly, it was not until last

Nico: the melancholically beautiful icon

nico | these days

6 June 2022
โ€œIโ€™ve stopped my dreaming, I wonโ€™t do too much scheming these daysโ€ฆโ€   From Andy Warhol’s muse to rock icon, Nico has certainly left her mark in the rock genre. With her influential 1967 album, Chelsea Girl being many โ€˜60s music lovers’ favourite from the era. The album featured songs written by some of the greats – Bob Dylan, Lou Reed and Tim Hardin.    Nico is well-known for featuring on The Velvet Underground’s debut album, her eerie yet soothing voice captivated listeners from around the world. John Cale described her as โ€œlike a rock. She didnโ€™t move up there.

I Just Wanted To Be One Of The Strokesโ€ฆ

Arctic Monkeys | tranquility base hotel and casino

2 June 2022
Arctic Monkeys’ 2018 album โ€˜Tranquility Base Hotel and Casinoโ€™, was a shock to many Monkeyโ€™s fans who loved them for their relatable anthems of club conquests, drunken voicemails and unrequited love. This fresh take on psychedelic rock transported listeners to drinking martinis in a retro hotel on the moon, a world away from Sheffield bouncers throwing them to the curb after a few cans of Stella.    After the success of AM, Alex Turner took to the alien world of LA for a change of scenery. This consisted of drug-fuelled nights roaming the artificial streets of the city and learning

In My Life: The Beatlesโ€™ First Masterpiece

The Beatles | In My Life

30 May 2022
โ€œAll these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I’ve loved them all.โ€ In My Life, the iconic and timeless from The Beatlesโ€™ Rubber Soul album, is one of my favourite songs of all time and without a doubt my favourite Beatles track. This song was named number 5 in The Rolling Stoneโ€™s list of the โ€˜100 Greatest Beatles Songsโ€™ and number 23 in their โ€˜500 Greatest Songs of All Timeโ€™. The Beatles are arguably the greatest band of all time, with only a few

The music reading taking a slightly different tack The music reading taking a slightly different tack. After reading Terry Pratchettโ€™s biography โ€œA life with footnotesโ€ Iโ€™m revisiting discworld with the first one I ever read. The story of a band getting together to make music with rocks in. It was probably the music theme that prompted me to pick it up in the first place.
