This Week's Singles: 13/4/09
So, there we were, ready to untangle the heady musical knots of this week’s releases. Except that this week we were beaming loud and not-so clear from a holiday caravan in the Easter wilds. Imagine it from your urban turrets – a place where phone masts and Twitter updates make nary a dent.»
Lost 8 of '08 - #6: The Wave Pictures

End Of The Road 2007: the DiS review
Widely regarded as one of the best new festivals on the British circuit, End Of The Road brings the summer season to a close – the rescheduled Truck excepted in this instance – with not so much a bang, but more a dainty shuffle and a fizz-pop.
