This blog post is late. I'm sorry...I SAID I'M SORRY

yesyesyes, very late indeed, as the show has already been out for over a week. But if you haven't heard it yet...then you're at the right place! Give it a listen!



This week's show signifies a new beginning...A beginning which involves YOU LUCKY LISTENERS getting free stuff! Free CDs in particular, these CDs have come straight from me and young Darren's CD collections, so they have been in good hands! There are THREE different ways that you can get your hands on a free CD.

1. You can visit our FACEBOOK page and click like, every time we get 20 likes, we'll pick one out of the last 20 and that luckkkyy listener gets a free CD. NOICE!




Sweet advert eh?

2. If you promote our show in ANY way and get us some new listeners, then email us (thenewreview@hotmail.co.uk) and if we love it then we'll get a cheeky CD to you.

3. You solve Darren's cheeky quiz for the listener!

If you cant remember the quiz (or haven't listened to the show...you scum!) then here it is again. What Darren has done is taken an album title and band name and put it through an internet language translator a few times with various languages, then put it BACK to English, to then get a mish mash of words. So what you must do is work out what it originally was. GET IT? no, neither do I. But it's genius I'm sure.
So here goes, album title then the artist:

1.In Light Maintenance - Speachafier Forehead Feature Article
2. Sargent Strikes The Remote Heart Club Belt Density By The Bullet. (no band name)
3. I Can Hear The Heart Around To Whip Implementation Of One - I Have It

So when you decipher the titles back to their original ones. Get in touch at thenewreview@hotmail.co.uk and we'll have a draw soon and the winner will get a CD.
Does that make sense? I hope that makes sense. I'm about 10% sure it does.

ANYWAYYY enough of that stuff, let's have some music.

We talked a bit about a possible Fugazi reformation, and THIS video is why it would be amazing if they did reform


Corrrrrrr

Remember, email us about anything!

SUP

Good day to you! We're back again, bringing 45 minutes of musical joy to your ears as per usual. Just click below and have a go on it!
This week the posh studio from the last couple of weeks is nothing but a distant memory, and we took to Darren's lovely garden to soak up some sun whilst we rambled on about all things music. Here's a picture of Darren in the garden, he's a KOOKY dude.


Just some of the hi jynx we get up too

Darren revisited an old feature for Darren's Cult, this week with Indie Punk legends, Television Personalities. Here's a personal favorite from them, A Picture of Dorian Grey


If you would like to hear more from the bands that were featured this week, then click on ze following links!

Murdermostfoul - Ecentric experimental electro to play with your mind
D. Hollywood - LA Rock n Roll with big hooks and a big sound
The Violet May - Catchy indie rock the way it should be, expect big things!

As I also mentioned on the poddywod, there are lots and lots of Facebook pages that are pushing new music in the same kind of way we are. So I suggest you click 'Like' on the following pages. This way you get a recommended a whole load of music every time you sign into Facebook!

Thy Daily Noise and Dan Gordon's Song of The Day are two of my personal favourites, they both have impeccable tastes in music and have introduced me to loads of stuff, so make sure you check them out! Other great pages go as follows....


All fantastic and all well worth doing that simple task of clicking 'like'

Vacaaaaationnnssss on it's way


Bonjour! I must start with an apology, I have been terribly busy recently and haven't had the time to edit and upload the new podcast, BUT the time has come, all your dreams have come true! It's another episode! It should be available on itunes right now but if you're anti itunes then you can stream it, as always, right here! How generous!
A good portion of this show is Darren waxing lyrical about how much he hates Nicky Wire and some of the quotes he has allegedly said...
What a round face

We also talked about bands that have no where near as much prestige as they should have, I mentioned the Swedish pop masterminds...The Tough Alliance



aaaaaand Darren talked about his current obsession with The Replacements



New bands that were talked about on this show go as follows....

Summer Camp - Female fronted synth driven epic pop
Cloud Control - Incredibly catchy Australian indie riffsters
Real Estate - Perfect dreamy surf pop (If you enjoyed Beach Fossils from last week, then you'll love these guys)

Whilst you're here I suggest you get involved with us a couple of other social networking thingys!
We're on FACEBOOK and nowwwww TWITTER

So get on those and give us a follow or a like or anything inbetween

As always we WHOLEHEARTEDLY encourage you to email us any bands you think me might like, whether you're in one yourself or just have heard something that makes your ears happy, send us an email at thenewreview@hotmail.co.uk

THANKS for listening

I bloody love you

anddd.......we're back!

Welllll....where to start! After about 6 months after we said we would be back, here we are!

Terribly sorry about the large delay, but we're starting again now in a new fortnightly show..."hoorayy" i hear you shout.

Give the brand new show a listen right here!


Other big news is that we have changed our itunes host, so you will no longer get our shows on the same subscription as before..WE DIDNT LIKE IT ANYWAY

So if you prefer to get our podcast straight to your itunes...the click HERE


We've changed the format of the show a bit, but all the solid radio GOLD is still there, don't you worry! look, here's a picture of Darren.


This week we rambled on about festival line ups, racist rock stars, new albums, and disappointing albums.

Here's another bad quality photo of our producers Arthur and Ross.



Here's one of my favorite songs off one of the albums we talked about, Yuck's debut



As per usual I featured three of my favourite new bands at the moment on the show, this week they are as follows...

Dirt Dress - Bluesy rock & roll from LA - www.myspace.com/dirtdress
Grass Widow - Melodic female three piece - www.myspace.com/grasswidowmusic
Beach Fossils -Fantastic dreamy lo-fi goodness - www.myspace.com/beachfossils

On the show I also mention the wonderful Graffiti Lips blog and zine, I suggest you pop on over there and have a go on it because it's another great way to get into music you may not have heard before!



Oh and whilst we are on about new ways to hear about new music, if you are on facebook then check out 'Thy Daily Noise', we've mentioned it before as it's a great way to get music appearing on your facebook throughout the day! LOVELY!

Talking of facebook, why dont you give The New Review a cheeky like? It's a bloody good like!

We will be back in aroundddd two weeks, with another 40 minutes of PURE JOY

Any emails about anything would be hugely appreciated! If you're in a band or just want to tell us about a band you're into, that would be great! Email this adress PLEASE

thenewreview@hotmail.co.uk

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!
