Black Aces have done it again. Another meat-and-potatoes pub rock album that fans of Australian style rock will salivate over has been delivered. Some may say that too many bands sound far too much like AC/DC and lack originality. I fall in the camp of ‘who cares’? AC/DC were the biggest band in rock and roll, and are dead and gone forever now as we knew them. This has left a large black hole in the industry and I for one thank God that bands such as Black Aces continually crank out stellar albums and keep the sound alive. I just wish the major labels would wake up and realize there’s a whole new generation of horny, hung-up James Deans out there feeling isolated, out of it, frustrated and yearning for expression. Black Aces are playing their song.

London once again features as a prominent character on Sorry’s second studio album, Anywhere But Here. ’If our first version of London in 925 was innocent and fresh-faced, then this is rougher around the edges. It's a much more haggard place,’ Louis says. Earwigged conversations, text messages, snatched speech recorded underground; the city’s discarded words fed into the lyrics which map the experience of urban life on a young and frustrated generation. Produced alongside Portishead’s Adrian Utley in Bristol, the result is an angular, acerbic, bittersweet triumph.

It has been a year since the release of "Melodrama" from Lorde, which has disrupted electronic music in the mainstream market. Pola Rise approached the subject even more boldly. The Polish singer has just released her debut album "Anywhere But Here", which, while remaining an alternative, sounds friendly even to inexperienced ears.
