To Others To One
Patrick Brennan
Matilde Santing has been making wonderful records in her native Holland for the past 20 years. To Others To One is her debut release on these shores and it’s a very classy affair indeed.

Snapshots
Patrick Brennan
Snapshots, is Eleanor McEvoy's best album thus far. She hasn't dropped her interest in the quagmires that are relationships. However, there's a new wisdom and detachment in evidence here.

Thanksgiving
Patrick Brennan
Boo Hewerdine has written countless gems of songs for the immaculate Eddi Reader. In turn she has co-composed tunes with him, used him as support on live outings and generally touted the man's prowess as an extraordinarily gifted songwriter.

Brang
Patrick Brennan

Rides
Patrick Brennan
Reef are not the future of rock and roll. In fact, if we have to talk in such grandiose terms about this four-piece from Glastonbury, the best you can say is that they produce an adequate simulation of heavy rock music from the late '60s/early '70s. Rides is all shapes but very little substance.

The Faltering Flame: Poems And Songs For Peace
Patrick Brennan
The Faltering Flame is a collection of poems and songs united behind the common theme of striving for peace in Northern Ireland. All the profits from the sale of this CD go to the Cornerstone and Currach projects, two bodies working with mixed community groups on the peace line in Belfast. Needless to say, it's a very worthy cause and deserves your support.

From In The Shadows
Patrick Brennan

Post Orgasmic Child
Patrick Brennan
Skunk Anansie? Punk rock art-terrorists or some music mogul's idea of what an angry young female-fronted band should sound like in the 1990s? Post Orgasmic Chill might have provided the definitive answer.

This Beautiful Hell
Patrick Brennan
The world of Gillian Welch is a far cry from all the cheap glitz and ego-maniacal power mongering of the U.S.A. of Bill Clinton's impeachment, Hollywood and rockets to space. It's the other side of those who coin.
Welch explores the grey, rural underbelly and she lives and breathes the country blues music she uses to tell her stories.

The Gory Arts Festival!
Patrick Brennan
Peter Greenaway’s latest film The Baby Of Mâcon has aroused critical opprobrium due to its blend of religious imagery and unnerving violence. Here, the director defends the movie, outlines his attitude to the moral guardians who object to his work and explores the importance of ritual in cinema and contemporary advertising.
