I often have a chuckle to myself when we have covers submitted if I have no idea who the original artist or track is. I took a gander on YouTube yesterday and ‘6 Words’ has over 1.4 million hits and Wretch 32 released this in October! On the flipside, I like the fact that there…
Life Is Like A Box Of Records: Claire Lim
Today’s Life Is Like A Box Of Records is with Claire Lim who co-runs A Badge Of Friendship. A good friend of Podcart since the beginning, this is a cracking set of tracks. The War Of The Worlds My Dad had this on vinyl and used to play it quite a lot when I was…
Hiders – ‘Out Of Sight’
Glasgow trio Hiders are today’s Song of the Day. James Morgan, Niall Carroll and Adam Jeffcock have been popping up on my listening stream for a number of months now and if one could go back in time and alter the Donnie Darko soundtrack, ‘Out Of Sight’ would be on there. These garage urchins have…

Vessels – ‘On Monos’ feat. Snow Fox
Having written about Leeds band Vessels more times than most, I am ecstatic to see that they are on the verge of their third album release. Dilate will be released in March 2015, but in the meantime they have revealed single ‘On Monos’ which features vocals from Snow Fox. For many Vessels devotees this will…
Cameron Roxburgh – The Serendipity Selection
When I first received an email from Roxburgh stating that he was a self-taught, 16 year old guitarist I suppose I was a bit dismissive. That was until I started listening to his latest EP, The Serendipity Selection. I think the first thing that struck me was the richness of his vocal, then came the…
Mogwai: ‘Teenage Exorcists’
Yesterday Mogwai premiered the official video for ‘Teenage Exorcists‘. Directed by the exceptionally talented Craig Murray and taken from Music Industry 3. Fitness Industry 1., this is a beautiful head fuck to put it politely. The EP is out December 1st via Rock Action Records.
