ALBUM REVIEW - STAR by BELLY

It took a couple of plays before it hit me how good this debut album from Tanya Donelly's Belly (!) really is.

All of the tracks are superbly written and Tanya's beautiful sugary voice can often turn hauntingly bitter, complimenting the instruments perfectly.

Stand-out tracks are Dusted, Slow Dog, Stay and of course Gepetto and Feed The Tree - definitely worth a listen.

ALBUM REVIEW - TRAINS, BOATS AND PLANES by THE FRANK AND WALTERS

This debut album is simply bursting at the seams with a menagerie of honey-flavoured pop tunes. It begs to be played over and over again.

From the spiritual High Is Low to the jaunty Walter's Trip, there is never a dull moment to be found.

The lyrics are wonderful, so if you're feeling low, buy it! It's delectable.
