Kris Drever is currently on tour with Lau, which is immediately followed by a tour with Drever, McCusker, Woomble.Nikita is one of the most acclaimed electronic artists in Poland, and is now breaking into the UK music scene with her single �Tonight�, a total winner. I reviewed it some weeks ago and completely fell in love with its vibe. It sounds like nothing out there right now, and although electronic music is not as radio-friendlyUK pop band The Hoosiers shot to fame three years ago with the undeniably catchy Worried About Ray, and have since enjoyed consecutive hits with the likes of Goodbye Mr A and more recently Cops and Robbers. Renowned for their tongue-in-cheek slapstick humour and zany music videos they have establishedVerden Allen is a founding member of legendary rock n� rollers Mott The Hoople, but left the band in 1972 when frontman Ian Hunter was reluctant to use any of Verden�s songs on the band�s albums.Cradle of Filth, the second most successful British Heavy Metal band behind Iron Maiden (according to Metal Hammer magazine) released their new album �Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa� on 1st November 2010. A concept album based around the mythical Lilith, it sees Cradle of Filth�s trademark heavy guitars laced with orchestration, and a couple of surprises along the way as well. I took this as an opportunity to sit down with their frontman, the very charismatic Dani Filth, to discuss the new album, the current lineup and the controversy that seems to follow Cradle around everywhere, as well as some other things. Post-punk Sunderland rockers The Futureheads shot to fame in 2005 when they revived the Kate Bush classic 'Hounds of Love' and two years on enjoyed similar success with their riff-roaring hit 'Beginning of The Twist'. Last April they released their fourth album, The Chaos and now operate under their own independent label, Nul Records.

Each month a new band or act take on the role of controller, which involved them sharing the music, film, places, books and other hidden gems that have inspired or made them what they are.The name might make them sound like a moody, underground, over-grunge band; screaming vocals and guitar smashing antics, but when I walk into the dressing room of Blood Red Shoes I�m pleasantly surprised by the lack of mayhem. Deep into the heart of Camden Town,The Drums are currently on a headline tour of the UK and are about to release single and live favourite, �Me and the Moon� on December 13th. Some weeks ago I reviewed The Whiskey Priest�s latest album, Wave And Cloud. It was something beautiful. Touching. So I decided I would try and arrange an interview with Seth, the singer songwriter from The Whiskey Priest to found out, first of all, where he got this amusingly bizarre name from.Renowned worldwide as the front man of Nine Inch Nails and heralded as one of the most influential figures in US rock history, Trent Reznor needs little introduction. An established and respected music producer, he has worked with the likes of Marilyn Manson, Saul Williams and Jane�s Addiction and is the foundingHailing from Essex, Morning Parade are currently one of the most hotly tipped bands for 2011.
