Two decades after its initial release the underrated debut album by the British three-piece returns to the spotlight with a new reissue and a compilation of previously hard to get bonus tracks. NBHAP head Norman always had a strong connection to the music of South and managed to exchange a few thoughts on the group and their album with band member Jamie McDonald.
As this decade is approaching its end it is time for a little reflection on all the great music we experienced over the course of it. Of course, this is NOT an ultimate and universal Top 100 list. It simply can't be but these are the songs you should definitely give a spin before the decade is over. The next 25 tracks in our list include Daughter, Kendrick Lamar, Editors, Blood Orange, Metronomy and more.
Another year goes by and it was... well, definitely different than the last one but still quite weird. The second consecutive Covid year was a rollercoaster ride of emotions where hope and despair went hand in hand and we're surely finished yet. Luckily, this resulted in quite outstanding musical releases which gave us much needed comfort and distraction in these difficult times. Today, we're honouring the fifty records that meant the most to us in the past twelve months.
Brit Rockers ELBOW present a heart-warming new music video for My Sad Captains. It’s the latest single off their recent record The Take Off and Landing of Everything, following the previous singles New York Morning and Fly Boy Blue / Lunette. And it’s another proof for the band’s talent to create epic ballads. ELBOW at their best, basically. The music video is a celebration of childish innocence, giving a bunch of little kids enough space to unfold their creativity. Really lovely to watch – witness it right here.
