Oh look, it’s Monday again! Don’t the weeks fly by? What happened this week? Well, a volcano erupted in Iceland, meaning that shit loads of European flights got cancelled. My favourite thing that happened this week? Nick Clegg became the hero of the Liberal Democrats and made David Cameron look ugly, old-fashioned and an all round [...]

Although there’s not been much feedback about the new format, I’d like to share with you why I personally prefer it. Mostly, I enjoy the excitement of not knowing what is coming up next. The fact that I simply put my iTunes on shuffle in order to come up with songs to review keeps everything spontaneous, [...]

Wahoo! Week 2 of the new layout. Seems no one commented saying they hated it last week, but that might just be because no one actually read the article. So for now, we’ll stick with it. Song #1: Just Like Heaven – The Cure: As you can probably see, my iTunes is filled with a lot of vintage. [...]

Okay, Music Monday will be undergoing a slight change as from this week. Instead of reviewing full albums from one band, I’m going to start reviewing 5 individual songs a week, sometimes with a few more details about the band in question. And how will I decide? Obviously, I will be using the iTunes random shuffle technique. [...]

I bet you’re thinking ‘An Horse’? But that’s incorrect grammar. Oh, just me then? Well I have no idea why they named their band in such an odd way, but they’re pretty quirky and awesome anyways. But does their first full-length studio album match their personalities? Track #1: Camp Out – The band actually performed this song on the [...]

I’ll have to admit, Mumford & Sons are easily becoming one of my favourite new bands of this year. As I write this, their album ‘Sigh No More’ is number 7 in the iTunes chart, so they must be doing something right, right? Let’s see… Track #1: Sigh No More – Many people have said that Mumford are [...]

That’s right, I’m starting a series of lists, here at The Daily Wiggle. And the first one, being the music lover I am, will be about the hottest new bands this year. I’m going to warn you straight away that a lot of these bands have actually been around for years, but this year their profiles will [...]

I thought it was about time that I reviewed a brand new album for all you Wigglers. You can’t get any newer than this: out today is new folktronic popstrel Ellie Goulding’s debut studio album. And here we are, reviewing it on the Wiggle. It was just last week that she was awarded the Critic’s Choice Award [...]

Ahh, I love bands that aren’t well known. Especially when one of your friends finds their album in a charity shop for £1.99 and buys it for you. Which is exactly what happened when I got this CD. Maps are a Northampton-based band and We Can Create was their first studio album. One of the songs on [...]

I’m guessing quite a lot of people know who Placebo are… If you don’t, well I suggest you get your google on. No, that picture the right isn’t a form of strange, distorted pornography, it’s actually the album cover. Don’t know why they chose it though, you’ll have to ask them… There are some pretty disturbing photos [...]

Kate Nash. Rhymes with mash, flash and ‘tache. In case you didn’t already know. I’m not sure that Kate really needs any introduction, especially to those of you living in the UK. Ms. Nash had smash hit singles in Britain with ‘Foundations’, ‘Mouthwash’ and the delightful ‘Pumpkin Soup’. Let’s see if her album matches up to her single [...]

Getting bored of Kate, Florence and Marina? Then go look up Ellie Goulding, one of the best females to hit music for a fair old time. With her electronic-folk style, this lady really has a voice which makes you stop and take notice. In fact, saying that she’d already been named BBC’s Sound of 2010, as well as [...]
