New Young Pony Club are an electro rock band from London, England. New Young Pony Club infuse slick bass grooves, with a sinister disco sound and touches of LCD soundsystem’s electro pop.

Review of Alice in Chains – Black Gives Way to Blue
Posted on 17. Nov, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured, music-reviews
Alice In Chains are the most under-rated grunge band to have ever played and that is a fact. There were a lot of grunge bands playing back in the 90s that cottoned on to what bands like Nirvana were doing and jumped right in there (yes Bush and Silverchair, I’m looking at you) and hence [...]
Album Review: Pearl Jam – ‘Backspacer’
Posted on 30. Oct, 2009 by slicktiger in Music, featured, music-reviews
Pearl Jam is undoubtedly one of the Titans of rock music, the band has been playing for the last 19 years, has recorded 9 studio albums, has sold an estimated 60 million records worldwide and is pretty much the only surviving band of the grunge rock explosion that was the early 90s.

A review of Jet’s ‘Shaka Rock’
Posted on 21. Oct, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured, music-reviews
Jet were one of the many bands that exploded on the scene while I was in varsity, and as such I missed their first two albums because I was drunk, but I caught one or two of their singles being blasted over speakers in bars and clubs everywhere. “I said one , two, three take [...]

Just the fact that I’m actually sitting (ok, lying)down to write this at the end of a long and painful day is testament to how impressed I am by what the boys from Sheffield have whipped out with ‘Humbug’. I guess a couple of disclaimers should be mentioned before I launch into this and the [...]

‘The Resistance’ by Muse | A Review
Posted on 27. Sep, 2009 by antonyadelaar in Music, featured, music-reviews, opinion
Muse have always had a flair for the dramatic. You have only to think about their entrance into Wembley for the 2008 HAARP concert where the band was escorted down a ramp by ‘security’ wearing neon yellow jumpsuits and gas masks. The stage was set between silver satellite dishes pointed at the sky and guitars [...]
