'Grinderman' - Nick Cave

I keep saying it, and I'll say it again - this man is a genius.

Almost as good as The Stranglers.

They were on BBC2 earlier this evening and I found them to be rather depressing. There's little in their sound to charge you up and get you feeling positive - it all seems like a reflection on the lazy apathetic society we live in and that lead singer acts far too jolly onstage not to mention looki...

Don't drink it, rub it into an open wound or use it as eye drops. Only spray it on weeds and any other undesirable flora in your garden. Let it dry before before you let the dogs/cats/rabbits etc into the treated areas. Don't use it after rainfall, or if it rains within eight hours this may reduce ...

I drive through Lunt every evening on my way home from work (I live in Formby about three miles down the road), and, yes, the signpost has often been defaced with a simple horizontal line at the top of the L with marker pen. A very quick, and some obviously think, amusing, addition. The way they des...

Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - awesome, the guy's a feckin' genius. Arm In Arm - Amsterdam - Celtic tinged, big chorusy pop/rock - a great album. Accelerate - REM - the 'Norfolk Coast' of Stipe & Co's catalogue - a return to what they know(sell?) best. Not too shabby. Roc...

Rwanda, Sudan, Iraq, Chechnya, the old Yugoslavia for starters - not on the same scale, but ethnic cleansing all the same...
