Three on Thursday has been a bit of a sausage fest so far, so I thought i’d try and get some girl power going. Don’t worry not the Spice Girls, just some quality Welsh alt rock from The Joy Formidable. I love their vigor and big, but intimate sound. Great to listen to while doing anything fun and exciting.   The Joy Formidable – Cradle   The Joy Formidable – This Ladder Is Ours   The Joy Formidable – Whirring

Their albums are best listened to on your bed, in the dark, with headphones. Perfect chilled out music. If I…

  After last weeks chilled out selection I thought i’d “turn up the volume and rip the knob off” with some Rage Against The Machine. They are an American, rap metal band who formed in the early 90’s. I love their intensity with which they express their political views and their integrity, I listen to them when i’m working, feeling angry or driving (they probably increase the speed a bit)   Rage Against The Machine – Killing In The Name  …
