Whats New?

Gorillaz Video Screening : Gathered in a small studio in London’s Soho, you have to wonder what could possibly be so impressive about the new Gorillaz video that Britain’s journalists have been shepherded together for a screening. New single “On Melancholy Hill”...
Introducing : Glass Animals : www.4ortherecord.com hit fever pitch this weekend when not 1 but 2 new tracks from the incredible Glass Animals graced our inbox with their presence...
David's Lyre : Masked troubadour, David's Lyre is, like his semi-hidden aesthetic, somewhat of a mystery at present. Although if fairness exists in the world at all...
Frankie & The Heartstrings : Interview : Sometimes, (not often mind), you go to see a band with a vague sense of expectation, born from nothing more than early releases and odd pieces of press, only for, by some twist of fate, this band you considered “fairly decent” until now to prove one of the...

CHRISTOPHER COOK

Hi. My name’s Chris Cook. I was one of those kids who sat around contentedly making weird noises. Having completed a music degree focussing on sound art, interactive media art, popular music and film sound, I still am.

Disclaimer: I don’t read music reviews. And no, I certainly don’t think I am qualified to write them. Below, then, are some links to various momentary opinions, weasel words, tail chases and other cruelties inflicted from the ether by another chipped-shouldered white middle class male.

Please take my writing with a pinch of salt: this will make it more palatable. In fact, if you could form your own opinions, that would be more to the point. I hope to stir your interest (or on some rare occasions, kill it) with my reviews, so as to compel you to listen for yourself (or not).
