Track Of The Day – “Days We Left Behind” – Paul McCartney

This song is the first release from Paul McCartney’s new album “The Boys From Dungeon Lane” and it follows Paul’s ability to weave a story into a song. To me this is almost the lyrical sequel to the ever beautiful “In My Life”, given that it revisits Paul’s childhood. There are references to war – …

Interview: Michael Rudd

Congratulations on the release of Ways Of The World, how does it feel?

Track Of The Day: “Screwball Scramble” – Dictator

It’s been a minute since I reviewed Dictator, so I was happy to see this track on my releases for the week. This track starts off with their usual energy, it chugs along with a great intro with a guitar, and vocals before going full octane! What caught my attention is the driving beat, it’s …

Track Of The Day – “Gut Punch” – Nick Jonas

This track has caused quite a stir on its release, I went through the usual socials on the 1st January to find what’s going on and Jonas fans everywhere have really got behind this one, and with good reason. This is a pop rock track with much of the energy packed in the vocals, which …

Track Of The Day: “Eldest Daughter” – Taylor Swift

Let’s get this out of the way. I’m a Swifty. This is the second track of hers that I’ve reviewed this year. I know that the media and the world at large tends to have a love hate relationship with her but that’s their problem. They’ll find someone else to love to hate eventually. Ms. …

Single Review: “Sinking Ship” – Oliver Anderson

This one comes packed with indie rock swagger – I swear I heard a castanet! It happens once, but then with this song, there’s a lot to keep you interested, lyrical references to the state of the world today plus a nod to a literary classic – George Orwell’s Animal Farm and the emotional oh …
