Album Review: Skinny Lister – The Story Is…

Everyone’s favourite shanty punks, Skinny Lister, are back with their fourth studio album The Story Is…. I first saw the six piece band in 2015, supporting Frank Turner at the Southampton Guildhall alongside their fellow Xtra Mile comrade, Will Varley.

As the Eagles gear up to belatedly commemorate Hotel California’s 40th anniversary, it is worth looking back at some of the other fantastic work released by a slew of bands across a range of genres. 1977 is also the year the world lost “the King” Elvis Presley at the age of 42.

Jeff Rosenstock @ The Cavern – Interview + Live Review

As a first year who had only heard stories about the Cavern, a hotbed of Exeter music fanaticism and host to lively club nights such as Indie Club and the Magic Hat Stand, it was a treat to walk through the doors and be greeted by the blaring punk guitar and vocals of support act, Doe. […]
