To celebrate Fierce Panda day on DiS we'd like to take you back to 2007.... On the eve of their 13th birthday, DiS caught up for a chat with Simon Williams, to discuss and celebrate Fierce Panda's long and happy existence...»
...he'd probably write a better tune than most of the rejects and retards who proffer us Christmas singles year upon year...»
Glasto, gold discs, America, the world. "It is pretty surreal what’s happened but, at the same time I can’t say we’re really disillusioned with it all; that it hasn’t been as good as we expected and we were expecting it to be all very bling." So what are Keane's hopes and fears now?»
Keane's debut album 'Hopes & Fears' is already set to be one of the best-selling albums of the year yet, judging by some of your comments on the messageboards, they are are band loved and loathed in not so equal measure. DiS writers are no different: Neil Robertson argued why he hates them so much right now. Here, Anthony Gibbons tells us why he likes Keane...»
Like it or not, Keane's debut "Hopes and Fears" is going to be one of the biggest-selling albums of the year. But are they a bunch of bland, no-hope bed-wetters or heartfelt romantics? This week, DiS gives two very different, hopelessly biased opinions about the newest stars of British rock.»
DiS predicted Keane were going to be huge and it seems our prediciton is coming true. So, we rolled up at Northampton's Soundhaus to meet songwriter Tim Rice-Oxley for a chat about how the band got together, found out what excactly ace new single 'Somewhere Only We Know' is all about, their perceived not very rock 'n' roll image, got some songwriting tips and discovered frontman Tom Chaplin's secret Freddy Mercury obsession. Bismallah! No! Etc.»
Bands in the key of love and heart break. Check out these audio tracks, videos and live dates from Azure Ray, The Stills, Keane, Thirteen Senses... then use our comments board to recommend your current lovesome favourites and records which will be making your Valentines extra special...»
A fifth crystal ball-like article, predicting the bands who will come to prominence next year by picking up British music by its cojones and shaking it till it vomits tunes. Part V: The soaring, angelic, stadium-sized tunesmiths that are Keane.»
Little gig journeys round London’s underground. 20-24th April 2003.

The Twisted AM Lounge alldayer, 2 days following the DiS alldayer of which the mind is too hazy to write about. In fact, ditto this gig too. The ubiquitous Capes are stripped to a 2-piece»
