When you evoke the image of the universal you have to make sure you deliver the empathy and emotions of the eternal struggle of being human, tempered always with the belief that through your vision, the listener is given the chance to see Stardust glimmer against the darkness of space and life.

With Love, an expression of truth that some may abuse, but for the majority doesn’t come easily, only to be used in moments when no other words suffice, that will capture the emotions and the sensations that true adoration dictates. It is a fondness framed at the end of a letter, a declaration of fealty, an allegiance to one’s country, with love comes hopeful respect; and it is too respect that Mitch Ryder unveils his latest album with a clear and untameable resolution, to admit that the result is a statement of intent for the listener, that in his words, it is “essential listening”.

What was once close can, over time, become Closer; it is an elevation of the Muse that provides in which we can gain ground and see the details of our emotional heritage in a finer focus, a sharper existence without rumour and without static; and which adds a grandeur we take into the decade of our life which perhaps offers greater reflection, which dictates softly we must take advantage of the Muse’s affection.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
To appreciate the Muse, you must admit that you adore them, for whatever stirs the passion of your craft makes not only your soul unique, but your voice rage against the most powerful tornado of indifference that might come your way as others blow to knock you off your steam driven journey and exploration.
To live without a Muse, no matter the face the place upon the guardian angel’s torso, is surely an intolerable feeling, it offers only a bland expression, a weight of unimaginable tediousness that makes a world suffer and the artist weak, flat, and lacklustre in their offerings to the world.

When gods get together the resulting thunder and storms can be so colossal that those who see and take in the wonder from the seats upon the eternal stage cannot but help be in awe, and when those giants and gods are in harmony, then the resulting dynamic is one of collaborative eruption, a release of energy so spectacular it rivals a volcano in terms of how people view the event.

The sense of remarkable cool that comes across in John Jenkins And The James Street Band new single, Tell Me Joe, is not to be underestimated, indeed the hearty groove initiated at the start of the single, almost Bryan Adams-esque in its delivery, the tale that unfolds is one of outstanding collaboration and a desire of a new phase of John’s life encouragingly taking place.

The stance of Henge may be one that will possibly confuse the uninitiated but as the cult heroes bring their new album, Journey to Voltus B, to the shores of electronic rock so the reveal of what is an exciting invitation to really enjoy the creation and well as the flight that is awaiting them.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
Sometimes the zinger requires time to land, the timing in the hands of an amateur is askew, not quite feeling the effect that it was designed to do. In some cases, the person on the other side of the joke sees the climax a mile off and is prepared, but the moment of exultation is lost. Only in the mind of the true seer can the Punchline become evident at the exact moment it was required to give the audience what it needed.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
What was once a dream can soon become a myth, a forgotten piece of lore, half remembered, tales told around camp fires and the whispered remains of studios, a warning perhaps to the extent of pulling a plug early on a project, or the damnation of some who are a recording limbo; the masterpiece in waiting, fully recorded, but never released.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
The quiet acceptance of regret, but the hope that reveal and revelation that comes forth from the experience is a state of mind we can only hope to find in our soul when a significant relationship ends or we flounder in the wake of our untold promise; and yet for the most part we lament in the modern age with a broken heart on our sleeves to a point where the dignity is shelved in favour of the illumination of the prolonged exposure.
