THE LEGENDARY GREYHOUND GREEN, make music like what they used to: proper tunes with proper soaring choruses, proper lyrics that veer between snide and hopeless romance, played on proper instruments played really f*cking loud. Sure, their influences are worn very firmly on sleeve. But to dismiss GREYHOUND GREEN as mere copyists would be a huge disservice.
They are fairly obviously indebted to the great lineage of quintessentially English guitar pop that can be traced through The Kinks to The Clash, The Smiths, The Stone Roses and more recently the elegant wastedness of The Libertines. Any band though, that can steer themselves so effortlessly from the sugar-coated pure pop sheen of Cannons to aggressive, despondent rants such as the 52 seconds long Weekenders surely has a bright future.
Vocalist Scott delivers each line, no matter what the lyric, in his distinctively lazy drawl. Shouting really is so overrated when you can tell a girl to be ‘on her way’ in a restrained, butter wouldn’t melt fashion, thus conserving invaluable suit buying energy. The songs themselves may be short bursts of energy - Pink Floyd they most certainly aren’t - but that certainly doesn’t mean Scott is in any hurry.
Currently unsigned, GREYHOUND GREEN have nevertheless been staples on the North London scene for the past couple of years, having supported such varied luminaries as The Libertines and Alabama 3. While the highs and lows of city life have undoubtedly shaped the band’s image, sound and outlook on life, there is a fierce ambition evident that will surely see them break free from Lahndahn’s constraints sooner rather than later.
Their sound may be sure, their image may be North London to a tee, but lurking beneath the surface is a dissatisfaction with their lot, a sense that life, when not spent living out rock ‘n’ roll fantasies, is frankly boring. This sensitivity and self-awareness sets them apart from their vacuous peers, and seems sure to lead to thrilling, varied records when they inevitably get signed.

OJM
Under the thunder produced by Michael Davis
Reviews
"The fourth and latest release of OJM is Under the Thunder, a real bombshell dropped by an exceptional producer: Michael Davis, the MC5's original bass player! It is an irresistible mix of Led Zeppelin, Blue Cheer, Stooges, MC5, Black Sabbath and Grand Funk Railroad. The band is dominated by the magnetic stage presence of David, whose's deep, sonorous baritone voice combines elements of Black Sabbath with The Doors. Alex's phasing, feedback and distortion are perfectly combined with the bombastic drumming of Max and further enhanced by the kaleidoscopic sound effects of Andrea, who puts the notes through a wah wah pedal to produce overdriven, distorted overtones.
