Courtesy of the miracle of modern technology - i.e. emails that go missing - this interview is delayed and should have gone up a month ago. Apologies to the guys for this. Blame Bill Gates! The questions were set to the band during their tour with Stiff Little Fingers which I sadly couldn't attend due … Continue reading Interview: Sponge from Electric River

Despite this, their live show grabbed me and the guys themselves were really cool so I was happy when I got sent a copy … Continue reading Review: Electric River – The Faith & Patience

However, it's finally here! My thanks to Sponge (mainly) and Alex (backing "vocals") for their time after their opening set supporting … Continue reading Interview: Electric River (13th May 2014, Glasgow Cathouse)
