Remember This: Jordaan Mason and the Horse Museum’s – Divorce Lawyers, I Shaved My Head

Jordaan Mason, genderqueer lo-fi folk artist from Toronto, has been creating music since 2004, quiet acoustic demos recorded while they were still attending high school. But it was not until 2009, five years later, that Mason released their most acclaimed and popular piece. The album itself can be summed up by its cover art: a […]

Album Review: Lo Moon – Lo Moon

At a time where alternative and indie acts are in abundance, Los Angeles trio Lo Moon are one who attempt to stand out from the others with their dreamy, cinematic 80s pop vibes. Blending the artistry of a variety of influential predecessors and at times America’s answer to the likes of Oh Wonder and London Grammar […]

Album Review: U.S. Girls – A Poem Unlimited

U.S. Girls is an American-Canadian music project led by Meghan Remy, and though originally centered around a very noisy, lo-fi aesthetic, Meghan has decided for this album, In a Poem Unlimited, to go for a much cleaner, polished sound. The result is an incredibly catchy art-pop album, combining elements funk, psychedelic, and late 70s/80s rock […]

Late To The Party: Neutral Milk Hotel – In The Aeroplane Over The Sea

(I can see the headlines now: “university student tries to defend Pablo Honey but somehow thinks it’s okay to slate In The Aeroplane Over The Sea.”) Music and memes are a dangerous, dangerous combination. Do these people actually love this album, or are they being ironic? Should I be enjoying this without any reservations? Do […]

Album Review: Angel Olsen – My Woman

“M aybe you know that it’s been too long” sings Angel Olsen in the forlorn opening lines to ‘Intern’, the opening track to her new album My Woman. The pain-ridden sense of longing expressed in this lyric is a sentiment that Olsen continually obsesses over in the following nine tracks that make up the album, a […]

Cullen Omori – New Misery Review

New Misery is the debut effort of former Smith Western’s frontman, Cullen Omori. Those familiar with Omori’s former band will associate them with fuzzy, lo-fi riffs accompanied by catchy and energetic melody lines. In contrast, New Misery is a more polished, mature album focusing on a wealth of existential angst. Given its title and these […]

Album Review: Hinds – Leave Me Alone

Hinds Leave Me Alone 8 January 2016; Lucky Number   The fact of the matter is that women are grossly under-represented in the ‘indie’ rock/pop scene. Hinds, previously Deers, fiercely stand out in this veritable cock-fest. Their debut Leave Me Alone was a riotously fun cry that insists on being heard in its very resistance […]

Album Review: Beach House – Thank Your Lucky Stars

Beach House Thank Your Lucky Stars 16 October 2015, Sub Pop   Only a couple months after the release of Depression Cherry, dream pop band, Beach House, have dropped yet another album: Thank Your Lucky Stars. A flow of haunting sounds wash over you as you listen to Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally’s latest creation: […]

Album Review: Kurt Vile – b’lieve i’m goin down

Kurt Vile b’lieve i’m goin down Matador Records, 25 October 2015   As both person and musician, Kurt Vile is at once low key yet mildly absurd. Possessing a discography that somehow combines busy, intricate playing and a keen ear for sonic detail with a kind of lethargic, don’t-care attitude comparable to noted musical somnambulist J. Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
