Yes that’s right folks, Soulja Boy has finally been knocked from his long-held position of power atop the worst songs ever chart. And shock horror, a British boy band has outcrapped him.
It’s not that this song is bad, it’s absolutely terrible. There isn’t one good thing to say about this bunch of testosterone-fuelled young idiots […]
I’ve just written a quite impassioned article over on Brit Music Scene imploring the Sex Pistols to finally retire and stop pretending that they are still punks. So I though it worthy to actually remind ourselves of how great they once were.
This is God Save The Queen from 1977, and was released to coincide with […]
I’m a huge fan of Radiohead, the British alternative rockers who made the headlines last year for giving their latest album In Rainbows away virtually for free on the Internet.
There is a new album out now, but Radiohead have nothing whatsoever to do with it. Radiohead: The Best Of has been released by EMI, the […]
After reviewing the new single Mistress Mabel from Scottish Indie rockers The Fratellis yesterday, I went on a bit of a Scottish indie band marathon of which the highlight was Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand.
This song is a couple of years old now and was the first taste that most of us had of […]
Scotland seems to have become a hotbed of alternative indie music over the last few years, with bands such as Franz Ferdinand, The View and The Fratellis achieving global super stardom.
This song, Mistress Mabel, marks the return of The Fratellis after a while away working on new material. It shows that they still have the […]
Estelle continues her transformation from British wannabe to American diva with this, her new single entitled No Substitute Love. And as a British guy, I already feel like we’ve lost her to the talent-stealing yanks (no offence).
Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, as she is sure to have a much more successful career […]
Vanessa Amorosi is an Australian singer who I only realised I knew when I started researching her history for this post. Yes, believe it or not, I do research every artist I cover here on Killed By The Video Star.
She had a hit over here in the UK back in 1999 called Absolutely Everybody which […]
Just two weeks ago I reviewed That’s Not My Name by The Ting Tings, a new British Alternative Indie Pop band who have come out of seemingly nowhere to find success on both sides of the Atlantic. And here they are again with Shut Up And Let Me Go.
This song was released after being used […]
Britain’s Got Talent has just come to an end with George Sampson, a precocious little twerp from the north of England walking away as the winner. The only problem is that he is crap!
Not only were Faryl Smith and Andrew Johnston much better than him, with more talent in their little toes, the best thing […]
This is the video for Coldplay’s new single Violet Hill, a song which made some history at the end of last month after the band gave it away as a free download for a week before it officially went on sale.
The gesture was a big success with the single being downloaded by 600,000 people in […]
