There are detective series that stand out for an entirely different reason than that which are forever hoping to attain.

We are glass shaped by time rather than the permanent waves of water that pound the debris of celebration into shape; and yet if we are fortunate, we end up the same, we are smoothed, levelled, and in rounded into shape of that which can best serve humanity rather than being the image of the rutted an craggy, the sharp end which cuts and slices into the flesh of others as we walk over them, as we leave an imprint of desperation on the shores of time.

Those Death Wish Blues will get you in the end, but until that time when the clocks reach their appointed hour you have the chance, the sublime opportunity to delve into two of the modern greats as they combine their incredible talent in an album that beats down the door of frustrating and riddled inelegance that has come to define an era dominated somewhat by the bland and crafted lyrical dullness.

In one of the great mysteries of life, the fans of one of Birmingham’s finest musical ambassadors, the scintillating and unique Toyah Willcox, have always been left wondering why one of the most memorable performances of her early career was never given the aural treatment it deserved. Why it seemed to appear on every other format except the one it mattered on, the vinyl love it required to truly capture an icon at the height of her powers and majestic best.

Never allow yourself to stay down for too long, for the view is arguably addictive and the memories that accompany it are full of warmth and dangerously comforting.
Rise Again, step into the zone you are only vaguely familiar with, rise once more and find the place where industry meets imagination, and allow the feelings of passion for the new run its course and where it leads to discovery.

The insular and the perpetually lonely, the shy and the sexually sly, have never had it so good when it comes to the advent of online dating. As near to anonymity as it is possible to go, the filters, the regulations, the privacy, all is in favour of finding the one, the perfect match which little engagement and effort; for nobody expects to find love online, no one imagines unearthing the one to die for in such a short space of time.

The labours of Hercules are often painted as a Greek romance, of the depths someone will go to prove their worth, or to atone for some misgiving. However, if we are to compare modern endeavours with that of Greek legend, then surely Sissyphus and the unstoppable boulder would be more of a direct analogy.

The trouble with the law is that it does not take into consideration the actions of those who implement it.
Justice not only comes with a price, and as the statue insists, is blind, but if wielded in the wrong hands can be a weapon more potent than that in which it is in place to discourage, to outlaw.

The demonstration of intent when it comes releasing your debut album is bound by a kind of artistic law that states it must show the confidence that is full of gravitas and punch, that if it fails to deliver a groove or the belief of scope and majesty required, then what you have created is not worth the life you have spent honing and perfecting your words, not setting the tone to which honours the pain and joy that your existence has endured so far.

A film that divides is prosperous indeed, and whilst Beast is not the greatest film of all time, what it lacks in agility and convincing CGI/acting, it more than makes up for in its environmental message. A film that produces empathy and disgust at the actions of a part of humanity driven by destruction, deserves more praise than it has received so far.
