Singles Round Up - May 21stAh, the humble single. Even after the Beat boom, punk, Acid House and countless other revolutions the single still stands as the staple currency of pop music. It's cheap, cheerful and - especially in the days of the instant download - manageable. Each week ClashMusic runs a singles review column, rating and slating the platters which come across our desk. This time round, we thought we'd hand the responsibilities over to Saint Etienne . Legendary music-philes, the trio's output is marked by an astonishing degree of pop literacy. New album 'Words and Music by Saint Etienne' is out now, so ...Clash Music21 May 2012

Weil selten jemand so schnell so viel Spaß m ..Vier Songs in 12 Minuten. Dann ist die EP “White Lies” durch und ich grinse. Weil selten jemand so schnell so viel Spaß macht.

Dessen Geschichte arbeiten The ABC Club mit ihren nervösen Schrammel-Gitarren und [...]Hey Tube21 May 2012

Red Light Company - Fine Fascination (2009) ..Occasionally something comes along and I find it difficult to decide whether it is something which has the flair of original creativity about it, or whether it is a complete load of shit. The 2009 contender for the ‘Are-you-really-what-you-pretend-to-be' Award goes to Red Light Company for their debut album, Fine Fascination . I am deeply suspicious of bands who have managed to get themselves a record deal before they have even played a single gig and before they have recruited permanent members for more than half the line up. It smacks to me of either being too clever by half or ...Music Emissions20 May 2012

We Could Go Far: The SoundOn the 18th of May of each year, fans from all over the world make a pilgrimage to the pit of Lancashire known as Macclesfield to pay tribute to Ian Curtis. Coming up to the thirty second year since death at his own hand, the passion of fans has only become more fervent whilst the commercialisation of his death has reached its lowest ebb, sneakers, bath-towels, Disney t-shirts, his band's bass player hawking third rate cover versions, that kinda thing. I'll take my life Into my own hands I'm the one that I will blame I'm ...Clash Music17 May 2012

Old music: Jason and the Scorchers – White L ..Like Donny and Marie, Jason and the Scorchers were a little bit country, a little bit rock'n'roll Even 27 years later, I still think 4 July 1985, at the Electric Ballroom in Camden, was one of the most thrilling performances I've ever seen. The lead singer wore a western suit; the bass player looked like a punk riverboat gambler, with black trousers and waistcoat, and bootlace tie; the guitarist was a metaller, with long hair and leathers; the drummer, spiky-haired and ratty looking, had a confederate flag flying where one of his toms should have been.
