Mother and the Addicts Release ‘Science Fiction’ in the States in September
We find them more at the Fall side of Britrock, with their irreverent dabbling in everything from rockabilly to disco, but perhaps it’s Mother and the Addicts’ Glasgow home base and clever sly wit… you can’t help but bring up the names Franz Ferdinand or Jarvis Cocker when referencing these boys.

New Raconteurs Album Alive and Kickin, Says Jack and Brendan (on MySpace!)
A “conversation” betwixt lead Raconteurs Brendan Benson and Jack White has appeared on MySpace this morning, intended, we surmise, to announce a new Raconteurs album. This as-yet-untitled newie will be the follow-up to the well-received 2006 debut album, Broken Boy Soldiers, from the rock supergroup. Jack calls his band the “Teurs,” and talks about someone [...]
Luke Pritchard of The Kooks, Sound Fix, Brooklyn 8.26.07 : Sentimentalist Magazine Review
(Luke Pritchard)
Man and his music, the Bob Dylan comparisons abound from his moppish unkempt floppy locks to his nearly unintelligible, slurred quips between songs; then there’s the music and his voice. This was the third time in about a year I’ve seen Luke Pritchard of UK’s The Kooks perform a solo acoustic [...]
