Sam Fender, Florence, The Blinders, Jade Bird, Alex Turner

Here we go again gang! 12 months have passed and as the dust settles on 2018 we've put our heads together to decide on our favourite 30 songs from the year. The rule is no repeating artist and most importantly - it's in no particular order. Thank fuc...

LIAM WONG: THE INTERVIEW

You've probably already seen his work without knowing who was behind the camera. Most probably you won't have realised there was even a camera involved in the wonderful profile of work Liam Wong has quietly been putting together for his first book ...

HERE’S JOHNNY!

Joni

The Shining (1980) is undoubtably a masterpiece of a movie. Based on Stephen King's dark and twisted 1977 novel, directed by Stanley Kubrick in his prime and with Jack Nicholson at his menacing best, it's a complete thrill-ride, a rush, utterly enthr

One of the highlights of MCM Manchester this year was meeting the wonderfully talented Chris McCoy, the man behind the quite brilliant comic strip Safely Endangered. If you follow us on Twitter or Instagram you'll know this from our #SaturdayStrip fe

TEN MINUTES OF UP

Alix

Jesus Christ the Lord, Mary & Joseph. That is blasphemy ladies and gentlemen and I apologise if I offended you, but fuck me this is difficult to write about never mind to watch it. It's beautiful first and foremost. 10 minutes of animation tel...

CLASSIC SIMPSONS – SEASONS 2 TO 8

Joni

How can we possibly have a website about pop culture without talking about The Simpsons. We're talking Classic Simpsons. Arguably they had an impact on the 90's like The Beatles did on the 60's. A mark of their success could be measured on marketing,

REFORM DOVES

Have you heard the rumours? No, us neither. We've heard hints of Doves in Jimi Goodwin's solo work and the Williams' twins Black Rivers album, both fine records in their own right. But when you fuse them together it gives us something unique. Is it h...
