Tweak Bird - Tweak Bird (2010)

Dirty old psychedelic blues played by Illinoisan brothers Caleb and Ashton Bird. (They call it sludge metal in those parts!) Riff after infectious riff - it’s relentlessness is wall to wall.

Slayer - Reign In Blood (1986)

I’ve got 30 minutes to spare this afternoon. I’ve therefore taken a speed over substance approach. This classic (highly regarded by speed metal purests anyway) is literally all over in a flash - but what a flash!

Bill Fay - Life Is People (2012)

Working at home on a Wednesday demands a certain level of restraint - it’s a work environment afterall. This is a beautiful record to create a relaxed and undisturbed afternoon while pondering the complete fabric of life.

Ruby - Salt Peter (1995)

Stunning debut from Ruby aka Leslie Rankine. Released more that 20 years ago, this is Nine Inch Nails meets Portishead. Not always easy listening Not always easy listening but invigorating to say the least.
