Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
Annoy the critic and the censor of personal virtuosity by continuing to create that which pleases you and the minority, for in their ire you will achieve the kind of immortality that few can only dream of, and the finer point is that they don’t truly understand the art you have made, the reasons for it, and because of that your voice will be heard across the void of those who utter I Promise Not To Make Art Again.

Leave the cynicism at the door as you check yourself into the palace of Eagles memories that come with the new release of their collected works and the advantage of a series of live songs from their 1976, 1980, 1994, 1999, and 2018 tours.

Ignore the warnings of impending doom at your peril, scoff at the ones who prep for the eventual fall of humanity, for they have at least given thought to a future where survival is an immediacy, where every eventuality is considered and given credence; and while we must live for today, tomorrow must have at least some hope in a world willing to tear itself apart.

We allow people into our lives on the unspoken rule that they will not harm us, that once they cross the threshold of our home they are subject to a premise of decency and courtesy; and if we require them to leave because a tension has become unbearable then they do so with a timely departure lest their welcome turn irrevocably broken.

There is no doubt of the immensity of love that is felt worldwide for two of the biggest stars of the creature feature films of the last one hundred years, and whilst the audience may flock for a new gothic version of Dracula, the fact that the Japanese art, aided and enhanced to the blockbuster budgets afforded it by Hollywood, of Kaiju is always at the forefront of the genre thanks to the brilliance and appearance of Godzilla and the foresight of American filmmaker Merian C. Cooper, the eighth wonder of the world, King Kong.

We covet the strangest of rarities in our pursuit of beauty, we adorn our skin with gems but often our hearts and souls go without such finesse; such is the skewed way we consider wealth we would rather glorify gold and silver as a mark of our good fortune and populace than ever offer merit to that which may have come from a more unexpected place, which to some could be an irritant, but which holds an artist’s eye with a fonder, more alluring sense of style, and whilst Gold may ravish, it is Pearls On A String that highlights sensuality and natural instinctive charm.

A thousand Harley Davidsons roaring in unison as they escort a squadron of Spitfires as they prepare to take off could only dream of capturing the elegance of cylinders being fired as fiery and significant Scottish rock band Gun once more appear before the listener as the Hombres to whom the sound is always in capable hands, in souls ready for action, in minds attuned to the fight ahead.

To Generation X, their childhood was arguably one of the weird and wonderful as television programmes especially that were geared towards their mindset were often trippy and alluded to a sense of the pursuit which would not be tolerated in any other time; and one in particular springs to mind as the former winners of the Scottish Traditional Music Awards ‘Best Live Act’ attest to the heavens their splendid new album, and the lively, animated, passion that expands from within.

The pilgrimage has become a word more associated with its religious connections, with its sense of selflessness and devotion to a God so engrained that you are willing to put the body through torment just to prove your commitment; and yet there is no need to head to Canterbury for a selection of tales that showcase support, to attachment, and an enthusiasm, perhaps all that is needed is the road to Newport, and rather than accompany Chaucer’s muses, we instead find ourselves as escorts to Grant Nicholas and Taka Hirose of Feeder.
