Single of the Week! Fucked Up featuring Jim Jarmusch, Annie-Claude Deschênes & Austra - ‘Year Of The Tiger’ (Matador) Fucked Up are going on an adventure. And as adventures require a great deal of planning and preparation we shall forg»
Scribes Simon Jay Catling and Dom Gourlay offer their final thoughts on this year's Leeds Festival...»
DiS met up with America’s funnyman, Neil Hamburger and we played him some records... _"When you’re done with this interview can you throw this computer into a river? Cos this is really quite a bad collection of songs you’re playing me. It really doesn’t give you much hope for the future, does it?" _»
Last weekend, DiS went along to Leeds Festival en masse, and as well as putting together daily blogs and Gary Wolstenholme's excellent photo galleries, we thought it would be a good idea to compile a diary of the weekend too. »
With 2011's summer festival season drawing to a close, the August Bank Holiday double header at Leeds' Bramham Park and Reading's Richfield Arena acts as the traditional curtain closer save for Bestival's more intimate finale in a fortnight...»
Team Drowned in Sound went to Future Everything and here's what we thought.»
The weekend before last, intrepid DiS-ers Marie Wood and David Renshaw went to Shoreditch Park to observe local rituals. Here are their findings.»
This week's content in the form of a Spotify playlist, featuring Let's Wrestle, Mudhoney, Sufjan Stevens, Fucked Up, Peverelist, Gold Panda and more.»
Girding their loins with steely determination, Andrzej Lukowski and Dom Gourlay set their sites on this year's third UK ATP of four. Not a classic edition, it must be said, but a solid - and very noisy - entertainment nonetheless. Here are terrible things that our reviewers saw.»
Or Sonisphere in Five Minutes»
While there are those who’ll merrily hold court for hours over how much the British festival scene has changed over the last 20 years or so, the erection of a fence near Pilton has got nothing on Poland, which has gone from Eastern Bloc austerity to gen»
While it'll probably be nigh on time for the Apocalypse before consensus has finally been reached on whether Pitchfork represents the apotheosis of music journalism or everything wrong with everything, there's no denying that Ryan Schreiber and cohorts st»
As you're doubtless getting bored/angry with the reams of subjective blather DiS has been throwing up over the UK's flagship festival, our mini Glastonbury preview week today hands the metaphorical mic to a selection of people who, er, know how to use a real one. All performing at the festival this year, Maximo Park's Paul Smith, Fucked Up's Damian Abraham, Emmy The Great and Broken Records' Ian Turnbull have all gallantly turned their little grey cells to pondering the meaning of the modern Glastonbury Festival.»
Shred Yr Face is back, and this time it's hardcore: pictures of The Bronx, Fucked Up and Rolo Tomassi in London inside.»
Imagine, if you will, 10, 000 Marbles coming at you all at once. What would you do? Run away? It'd almost certainly be futile. Imagine the coverage! The F^cked Up live experience is similarly inescapable, and the band are over here again at the end of the month for Shred Yr Face 2, also featuring Rolo Tomassi and The Bronx. »
As part of our vague 2009 preview week this week, we thought it might be nice to catch up with some of our acts of last year and new acts we're excited about and ask them what they're looking forward to in 2009. This is what they said:»

DiS asked some of the makers of some of our albums of the year, as well as some of our tips for next year, what they want for Christmas. As we expected time off seems to be top of a lot of non-stop touring bands lists...»
Another year, another big weekend at Reading and Leeds festival. DiS sent along some of our finest scribes and asked them to scribble about their five favourites of the weekend. Here's what we got back from them»
Feeling decidedly less sturdy of liver than it did this time last week, DiS brings you the first installment of its two-day jaunt round a bladder-battered T In The Park»
As summer colours the sky blue, events at the Custard Factory complex paint Birmingham black. Another Supersonic festival lifts the spirits»
This weekend the Supersonic Festival takes over Birmingham’s Custard Factory for a sixth year. DiS - again a sponsor - previews the festival»
DiS went to South By Southwest 2008 and all we got were these photographs... and these words... and no sun burn this time... mercifully»
They're NSFW through 'n' through, from the name to the attitude and the riotous live shows, but F*cked Up might be 2008's punk-rock success story. Currently in the UK supporting Gallows, the Canadians spill all to DiS»
It's like a festival having been circumcised, serving a purpose but lacking in providing anything much in the way of true enjoyment. With reams of tickets going spare in tight pockets, curling like thin-cleaved skin we begin the joyless, 12-hour odyssey home to bed. No sleep on concrete, no sleep on trains, with little to rationalise the ache...»
Fucked Up aren’t your average punk-rockers. The Toronto quintet is deadly serious about their chosen art, and decidedly more savage of song than many a peer. They don’t aim to perfect their art, though – this is catharsis at its finest, expression at its most violent...»
