Don't Look Back 2007 at London Roundhouse, Thu 30 Aug
Not a standard night. A stranded night. A feel of an absence in my cupped hand and in my aching diaphragm...»
Electrelane, Beastie Boys at London Roundhouse, Thu 06 Sep
Rather than one of the usual fodder acts carted out for such an event, this evening's solitary support slot for the Beastie Boys is inspired in that, as faces stiffen in bemusement, Electrelane provoke a response...»
The Maccabees, Laura Marling at London Roundhouse, Tue 16 Oct
Much has been made of late of some shift. Clean faced, The Maccabees roll up at the Roundhouse tonight still trying to figure out where their place is in all this. Musically, we know what we’re gonna get, even this high up in the lofty stalls...»
Morrissey at London Roundhouse, Wed 23 Jan
For those who feel every day is like Sunday, Morrissey serves as comfort. His furious scribbles provide the narration to their lives. This is why his legend is assured. As long as there is anxiety and marginalisation in the world Morrissey will continue to thrive»
Jimmy Eat World at London Roundhouse, Mon 03 Mar
To claim that Jimmy Eat World are simply meat and potato rock made simple for the uncritical masses is to fail to inspect the ingredients properly. It’s much more of a gastro-pub effort»
Joan As Police Woman at London Roundhouse, Thu 17 Apr
The atmosphere is hushed and reverent in this intimate studio offshoot of The Roundhouse this evening, as you imagine it would be given tonight's Joan As Police Woman show sold out within eight hours»
Shoegaze Week: My Bloody Valentine @ Roundhouse, London 20/06/08 (from the archive)
This is it. The moment everyone’s been waiting for. The first official reunion performance by My Bloody Valentine in sixteen years»
Graham Coxon at Roundhouse, London, South East England, Thu 23 Jul
Coxon's iTunes Festival gig was never going to come close to the thrill of that sunny cider drenched day in the park that was Blur in Hyde Park.»
Wild Beasts, The XX at London, Roundhouse 12/7/2010
The division between audience and headliner tonight is a physical one, true – band high on stage, gaggle grouped below. But there’s also a detachment that’s rather less tangible, albeit just as apparent; a schism of circumstance that confirms, for better or worse, that The xx have truly flown the indie nest and arrived at a place where their delicate songs have been co-opted by the comparative masses. »
Underworld, Kele at Roundhouse, London, South East England, Sat 17 Jul
I feel wholly undecided about tonight’s event. It’s hard to argue with being given free gig tickets and song downloads and yet»
Janelle Monáe, Cock 'n' Bull Kid at Roundhouse, London, South East England, Tue 01 Mar
A life affirming evening, full of fun and sheer spectacle»
Robyn at Roundhouse, London, South East England, Thu 03 Mar
You feel that had Robyn been on top form this would have been a superb evening out. As it is it’s merely a pretty decent one. »
Ghostface Killah, DOOM at Roundhouse, London, South East England, Sat 05 Nov
Untapped potential and wonky computer graphics from this heavyweight hip-hop doubleheader.»
