“Hello, this is yer old pal Baron Samedi Off Of Heroes here. When I’m not forming a quasi-religious militia, running down a corridor, or being twatted by Nathan Petrelli, I like nothing better than to take a look back over the last twelve months of Out On Blue Six.

Some considerable [...]

Christmas is, as Louise Hall-Taylor announces at the conclusion of The Nativity, “a time of celebration”. Clap Your Hands was the name of one of one of the tracks on Happy Mondays’ Madchester Rave On EP, which sat a couple of places below Band Aid II and Jason Donovan over the Christmas of 1989. Happy [...]

Well, [...]
