Review: This Australian and now London-dwelling three-piece made their name by balancing out their psychedelic explorations with a somewhat Madchester-derived pop sensibility, and this second album sees them throwing this delicate balance into orbit by effectively offering more of everything - the sonic textures here are more adventurous, the hallucinogenic swirls of sound more lustrous, yet the choruses are as indelible and infectious as ever. A party album with a 'Screamadelica'-esque experimental edge, 'Every Now And Then' makes these three space cadets sound like genuine contenders.

Review: Re-grouped and, if the introductory stomp here is much to go by, re-charged, Manchester's PINS return with a generous helping of sound clash business, melding filthy electro sleaze and playful rock with two deft and confident hands, the results of which should score big with fans of seductive disco sludge. And let's face it that's pretty much most of us. Tracks like 'Read My Lips' and 'Bad Habit' are fine examples of a dark but alluring edge this lot seem more than capable of creating, while 'Daisies' could almost replace Wilson Phillips to score the final scene of 'Bridesmaids'. Which is certainly no bad thing. "We can keep going" the band threaten over 'Ghosting''s compressed but intense rave punk. Based on this, we're more than happy with that idea.
