Hey Monday: Hold On Tight
This band are a bit like Paramore but a little younger, They really became known by touring with Fall Out Boy.
The band formed in 2007
People are calling these a Pop Punk band but I personally wouldn't put punk in there to be honest, I would say they are an alternative rock band.The album isn't set to be released until the 18th of may but my brother's friend bought me this back from is trip to America, bless.
The band consists of five members:
Cassadee Pope - lead vocals, guitar
Mike Gentile - lead guitar, backing vocals
Alex Lipshaw - rhythm guitar backing vocals
Michael "Jersey" Moriarty - bass guitar, backing vocals
Elliot James - drums, percussion
There are two slow songs on here 'Candles' and '6 Months' both are amazing.
Set Off 4/5

Advantages: eeerrrr................ Disadvantages: A disappointingly poor film.
Will Hay - Hey! Hey! USA.
******************************
Introduction:
**************
A lone outing for Will this time with no Moore Marriott and graham Moffatt.
This is Will Hays second movie as the hopeless Dr Benjamin Twist. He would also use the character in Good Morning Boys and Convict 99.
Not to be confused with another character he played called Dr Smart Alec.
Synopsis:
***********
Will is a ships porter who ends up being drugged by a runaway crook, who then swaps identities with him.
By the time he awakens he is far at sea.
Will joins up with another stowaway
And finally jumps ship in the USA.
He gets a job as a tutor, whilst his stowaway companion becomes a kidnapper and ends up kidnapping the very child Will is tutoring.
It ends with a farcical quickness that is disappointing.

Advantages: Laid back groove that is unique amongst peers. Definately a grower. Disadvantages: Not quite up to the standard of their earlier work
I have been a fan of the Super Furries for a while, and I have noted their gradual progression from loud young men with guitars and lyrics about buying chip pans and sailing them to the Isle of Man, and having one Welsh track per album, to something more mature, considered and laid back, with more than a hint of a nod towards Brian Wilson/Beach Boys.

The Furries are now on the Rough Trade label having ended their deal with Epic.
The first notable thing is that the cover art is no longer done by Pete Fowler, a Japanese artist called Keiichi Tanaami has taken over. Personally I really liked Pete's "Monsterism" so I find it hard to be objective about this new look. This change ...
