Song of the Day: We Are The Physics
Monday, October 8th, 2012
When Podcart first began we covered We Are The Physics quite religiously. As time went on and more bands came into our radio stream, they dropped off the radar.
Was this their fault? No, it was mine. The problem with the internet and having a blog that people often cite as being a ’shit filter’ is [...]
Tune into Autism!
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012
People often associate autism with that which they can see and observe, in other words a person’s behaviour. It is however important to recognise that autism is not a behavioural problem and that observable behaviours arise as a result of a range of complex and interacting factors.
Scottish Autism is an autism charity that exists to help [...]
Song of the Day: Pipers – ‘Ask Me For A Cigarette’
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012
I am not going to lie, when I received the press release for Pipers and saw influenced by Oasis and mention of a tour with Tim Burgess, I was more than a bit put off.
But, like most things I have come to know, always give everything at least one chance. Pipers are our Song of [...]
Song of the Day: Stanley Odd – ‘Carry Me Home’
Sunday, September 30th, 2012
Stanley Odd have the ability compose tightly stitched narrative and as a band apply these solid principles to their musicianship.
‘Carry Mr Home’ is our Song of the Day and applies the aforementioned perfectly.
‘The bottle is my boulder another drink with the devil walking on my shoulder, I’m an unsteadily disassembling man through each raised glass [...]
Song of the Day – Me And My Drummer
Thursday, September 27th, 2012
Me And My Drummer have consistently impressed the Podcart camp from the onset. We have been listening to their forthcoming Don’t Be So Hot EP (out October 15th) continuously.
Our Song of the Day is the title EP track. This is a beautifully ambitious song with as much vigor as a punk rock anthem. The underlying [...]
Song of the Day – Honeyblood
Tuesday, September 25th, 2012
This is the first time I have written about or mentioned Honeyblood on our site. It has been a semi-conscious decision. If there is a lot of hype about an artist then I will tend to wait until I am ready to check them out rather than go with the wave of adoration.
I have a [...]
Dear Roxy 171
Monday, September 17th, 2012
Dear Roxy 171,
Friday night, I received a welcome text message from my other half asking if I would like frequent your establishment and see two bands that have impressed me tremendously in the last year. I believe the promoter was Asleep at the Wheel, who, might I add was incredibly welcoming and extremely passionate about [...]
Song of the Day: Meursault – ‘Dull Spark’
Saturday, September 15th, 2012
Meursault are one of those prolific bands that you have the strange habit of forgetting about. I think I have mentioned this before, I have artists such as Elbow, Richards Hawley and the like in my record collection and from time to time I am reminded of their greatness. I then go and immerse myself [...]
