All of the music you download from Never Enough Notes is legal and has approval of the musicians in question. This has to be one of the music fiercely-contested issues around music, should we feel guilty about illegally downloading music? When it comes to paying for music vs. illegal downloading, I think we’ve all been guilty of committing the latter. But is it really a problem? Or is it the case that illegal downloading is the norm, just how buying a CD once was?

As the weather is so changeable I normally decide to wear multiple layers instead of one or two chunky things. This is so if suddenly the weather brightens (unlikely) or I need to run anywhere (again unlikely) then I can de-layer at a moments notice. When preparing for the outside I start from the bottom up as I constantly have cold feet.

They have treated their fans to the radio debut of their new single ‘Arguing With Thermometers’ by Zane Lowe on Thursday's BBC Radio 1’s Breakfast Show (Lowe is standing in for Chris Moyles this week). The release of ‘Arguing With Thermometers’ signals the release of their impending third album A Flash Flood of Colour on January 16th (either that, or it’s to signal their dislike of going to the doctors?) The band has already performed the song on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge back in October and here’s another chance...

After praising Max Raptor’s debut mini-album, Portraits, and generally writing about his support for the band on Facebook and YouTube, Max Raptor superfan Barney Hall has been given an early Christmas treat. The band posted on Facebook, saying that if their statement got a thousand likes, they would play in his bedroom, streaming the performance live on the internet. Thanks to a lot of help from Max Raptor fans, Kerrang! and Rock Sound, they will be playing at Barney’s at 4:30 pm on Sunday 18th December, so catch them on Facebook by l...
