White Denim, The Soundcarriers at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Thu 02 Jul

Review by Dom Gourlay

There's a buzz around White Denim this evening in the same way as the one generated by The Black Lips two months ago.»

Wild Beasts, Blue Roses at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Fri 02 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

The last time Wild Beasts headlined this very same venue (almost two years ago) you could count the number of attendees on the top three frames of an abacus. This evening, however, it's a completely different story...»

Johnny Foreigner at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Mon 05 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

When looking back over the impact of Drowned In Sound these past nine years, it's fair to say the site has been pivotal in shaping the careers of several artists along the way. One of those would undoubtedly be Johnny Foreigner...»

The XX at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Wed 07 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

It's rare that the words "credible" and "stage school background" find themselves in the same sentence, let alone to one group of people, but London four-piece The XX are something of an unusual prospect...»

Delphic

Delphic, Two Door Cinema Club at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Thu 29 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

French imprint Kitsune Maison have been responsible for some of the most groundbreaking dance-orientated music this side of the Millennium...»

Maps

Maps, It Hugs Back at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Sat 31 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

Now just a two-piece consisting of Chapman and August Jakobsen, the 2009 version of Maps is more at home within the sweaty confines of a late night club...»

A Place To Bury Strangers

A Place To Bury Strangers, Japandroids at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Fri 06 Nov

Review by Dom Gourlay

If Japandroids haven't exactly enjoyed the most comfortable of trips to Nottingham today, then Brooklyn's A Place To Bury Strangers must have broken the record for the most tiring. Having stepped off a plane from their homeland literally hours before arriving, one could forgive them for being jetlagged and ultimately wanting to get tonight's show out of the way in order to get a good night's rest...»

Dead Confederate MySpace

Dead Confederate, The Kull at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Tue 08 Dec

Review by Dom Gourlay

Hailing from Athens, Georgia, previously renowned in a musical sense for the diverse likes of REM, Neutral Milk Hotel and Mastodon, Dead Confederate occupy such a vast musical landscape that even attempting to pin them down would be a nigh on impossible task.»

The Primitives

The Primitives @ the Bodega, Nottingham, 19/04/10

Review by Dom Gourlay

Eighteen years is a long time, period, never mind when set against the fickle contexts of musical fads and trends. »

Savoir Adore

Savoir Adore at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Thu 22 Jul

Review by Dom Gourlay

While it would be unfair to suggest Brooklyn duo Savoir Adore are in possession of all the answers, there's no disputing their minimalist, slightly off-kilter and every-once-in-a-while lo-fi excursions around a tune bring a much needed breath of fresh air to an underwhelmed yet exhausted genre... »

Archie Bronson Outfit, The Victorian English Gentlemens Club at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Sun 10 Oct

Review by Dom Gourlay

Despite being on celebrated independent Domino Records pretty much since their conception, its been a long haul for Archie Bronson Outfit in terms of attaining the widespread recognition their melange of styles and sounds so richly deserves.»

Wu Lyf

Wu Lyf at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Sun 20 Mar

Review by Dom Gourlay

If the impending rise of Brother marked the point where the hype machine jumped the shark in a style more accustomed to the impressive feats of Bob Beamon and Carl Lewis, the anti-hype stance of Manchester's WU LYF seems to have created an air of nonchalance if tonight's poor turnout is anything to go by.»

Cloud Control at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Sat 09 Apr

Review by Dom Gourlay

While comparisons with fellow antipodean exports The Temper Trap are inevitable, Cloud Control are part of a new broom sweeping across Australia's occasionally barren music scene alongside kindred spirits Tame Impala and The Jezebels.»

Puressence, The Cedars at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Sat 12 Nov

Review by Dom Gourlay

Although largely a cult phenomenon here, Puressence continue to flourish overseas, and while recently released sixth LP Solid State Recital came out virtually unnoticed in the UK, the band's status as one of this country's most proficient exports this past decade remains.»

Still Corners, My Sad Captains at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Tue 07 Feb

Review by Dom Gourlay

It's a different, more confident Still Corners standing before us from the band that nervously played a mid-afternoon set to barely a handful of punters at last summer's Latitude...»

Stealing Sheep, Simian Ghost, Pins at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Tue 05 Jun

Review by Dom Gourlay

Having met and formed at Liverpool's Institute For Performing Arts three years ago, it hasn't been a quick and easy process for Stealing Sheep to obtain recognition...»

kate nash

Kate Nash at Bodega Social, Nottingham, Fri 22 Jun

Review by Dom Gourlay

When Kate Nash announced the arrival of her latest song 'Under-Estimate The Girl' this time last week, the whole of cyberworld seemingly felt the need to voice an opinion...»
