Album

Mini LP from new badly drawn boy on the block

Stunning two-disc live set from recent dates in Toronto and Bloomington, Indiana. Accompanying DVD to follow

Glasgow platinum-shifters ring (albeit subtle) changes for their fourth long-player

Before the sex pistols there was New York's Lower East Side: trash aesthetes with short hair and kinky vixens in B-movie stilettos. Kids with minor drug habits and slim volumes of symbolist verse. Pre-punk 'punk' was Gotham's reaction to smug denim California and prog-pomp stadium blow-out. The new Bowery Bop was about immaculate posing, street-corner nihilism. It was railroad-apartment art-rock out of the Velvets, Stooges, Dolls, with a side order of Nuggets garage psychedelics.
