I’ve been a major fan of Superfood and their quirky lyrics about TVs and raisins since they first put out their debut ‘Superfood’ what seems like an age ago. 2014 has been their year – they’ve toured with NME and […]

Album Review – "The Endless River", Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd have always let the music do the talking. The band that defined and perfected progressive rock through the 70s, they consistently put out exciting music despite being rocked by inner turmoil and the loss of not one but […]
Album Review: "Whispers", Passenger
Mike Rosenberg (aka Passenger) has a lot of things going for him; a hit number one single, a distinguishable tone of voice, an ability to write songs, glorious elf-like ears and not to forget that cracking beard. But one of […]
Live Review – LTJ Bukem and DJ Hype @ Fabric
Dressed Head to Toe in a Leather Cat suit- which pretty quickly I recognised was a bad move for a Drum and Bass night, adorned with freaky cat eye contact lenses and with a friend who had a face […]
Album Review – "Ghost Stories", Coldplay
I’ve never liked ghosts much. In fact I’m terrified of the very idea of them. There is however nothing to fear from ‘Ghost Stories’, Coldplay’s latest album. Two key words came to mind whilst listening to this album: “mellow” and […]
Band of the Moment – Sundara Karma
I saw Sundara Karma at The Old Blue Last in Shoreditch last December, and since I’ve been hooked. If I was to predict the next up-and-comer to make it, I’d bet on these guys. Sundara Karma are a quartet from […]
Band of the Moment: Glass Animals
My big thing at the moment definitely has to be Glass Animals. They’re a quartet of lads from Oxford and they make really cool spacey music (I’ve played them on my show quite a bit). They’ve been on tour with […]
Album Review – "48:13", Kasabian
I can’t get enough of Kasabian’s latest offering. Lead single ‘Eez-Eh’ had me hooked from its first play, giving me high hopes for the album, which definitely doesn’t disappoint. The 13 tracks are carefully crafted by the band in order […]
Album Review – "Daydreamer", Harts
With the ever creeping stagnation of the rock music genre, many long term fans fear the eventual collapse of rock into the dark abyss of mediocrity. However, amidst the dreary and unimaginative offerings of Kings of Leon and Nickelback, to […]
Insanity Radio Award Nominees
The much anticipated Royal Holloway Societies Ball is coming up this Saturday, and you know what that means? It’s awards season! We’ve got three very prestigious awards to give out and the nominees are now in… Best Entertainment Show: […]
Pick Of The Week – "All The Sad Young Men", Spector
Spector have been under the radar for the past couple of years since their debut album ‘Enjoy It While It Lasts’, but they’ve burst back onto the scene with their latest single ‘All The Sad Young Men’. I feel […]
Album Review – "Everything Is Fine", Hawk Eyes
It has been three years since Hawk Eyes’ last full length release “Ideas”. However, despite receiving almost universal critical acclaim in the mainstream music press, the album only sold modestly. This eventually left the band without a major label, forcing […]
