“Sitting In the Shadows” is the fourth single off Lazy Fifty’s upcoming album ‘Neighbour of the Beast’. This album is the second collaboration between Adrian Athy (vocals, guitars, bass) and renowned producer Greg “not my problem” Haver (Manic Street Preachers, Tom...

“...a seething mass of chaos, of endless gaping maws, slathering tongues and thrashing limbs, chattering teeth and sibilant whispers of lunacy and obscenity. There is no silence, there is no peace, there is no sense or order. With all laws of structure and reason...

Over the last 35+ years I have reviewed many thousands of albums, but while I cover a wide variety of genres, it must be said that soul and pop are not the styles one would normally come across when reading my works. It is also not a style I expect when thinking of...
