Guest Column: Big Scary Monsters
I started writing this some weeks ago, sitting in the back of our pimped up little hire car as we sped across the US, enjoying the unbelievably good US classic rock radio and relishing the chance to turn onto a new road every 150 or so miles. Unfortunately, thanks to the busy nature of the trip and the ensuing email catch-up (welcome home!) it has taken me until now, sitting in my front room in drizzly Oxford, only just back into sleeping on UK time and proudly sporting a “Don’t Mess With Texas” t-shirt (just one small part of my strong new tourist wardrobe), to find time to sit and write this thing up. Lets start at the start shall we? »
SXSW high-fives from Rolo Tomassi, Fear & Records and Holy Roar Records
Rolo Tomassi went to Austin, Texas and absolutely slayed SXSW. They made noise, made people dance and made people cry. We gathered a gang to drive them across the desert and to score them beer and make sure that they ate enough BBQ. In return, they told us all about their five SXSW musical highlights...»

DiScover: MySpace Trail #3
From Youthmovies to the demented LA dance duo Captain Ahab in but a few easy MySpace steps? It can only be number three in our series of Trails, DiScovering the unknown (or kinda known this time out) at random. Click, dip, lick»

DiS's albums of 2007: 10-6
Part four of five, and pressure’s building. What record will scoop our Album of the Year title, and will its makers expect a reward for their efforts? We’re hoping not, as the budget's been blown, again, on booze»
The Weekly DiScussion: just what is a 'DiS band'?
Do you think of The White Stripes, Battles, Radiohead etc as ‘DiS bands’, or has the site’s highlighting of a select group of smaller acts from time to time made them ‘ours’ in the place of major label alternatives»

Here are the must-own LPs in our eyes. Or ears, we guess...»
DiScover: HEALTH
As shrieking experimental Los Angeles noiseniks, HEALTH is a somewhat inappropriate moniker. The quartet - John Famiglietta, BJ Miller, Jake Duzsik, Jupiter Keyes (pictured clockwise from left) - provide honed brutality, with their eponymous debut record (released on Lovepump United this month) another sprawling, diverse export from LA’s currently burgeoning scene...»
