Cornershop headline in Belfast

They're appearing as part of the Queens Festival.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 07 Oct 2009

Cornershop, whose new Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast album has been on repeat in HP Towers, make a long overdue return to this island on October 27 when they play the Spiegeltent as part of the Belfast Festival at Queen’s. Tickets are £18.

Tjinder Singh and Ben Ayres are depping for Seth Lukeman who’s been forced to pull his appearance due to recording commitments elsewhere.

The October 16 to 31 beano will also have to do without Richard Hawley who, for similar reasons, has postponed his Ulster Hall show until December 2.

Otherwise, it’s full steam ahead with Tinariwen, Buzzcocks, Imelda May, James Hunter, Fionn Regan, Julie Feeney, Josh Ritter and Norman Blake & Euros Childs all doing their respective things.

Wop The Groove

Where did Cornershop go with the Anglo/Indian sounds they did so well? Well, let me tell you. In 2003, they began making an film about London’s independent music industry, and ‘Wop The Groove’ is the soundtrack to this. It needs little imagination to guess quite correctly how such a piece of music might sound. But to throw a spanner into the works, it’s X Factor ‘star’ Rowetta providing vocals. The weirdest thing is that she doesn’t even ruin it.

Topknot [feat. Bubbley Kaur & M.I.A.]

Poor Cornershop looked so damned uncomfortable throughout their whole chart topping experience that you feared it would scar them forever and they’d never want to make records again. They have, however, sunk happily back into semi-oblivion and knocked out a stream of fantastic singles, of which 'Topknot' is by far the best.
