Cadence Weapon - Afterparty Babies

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

Say hello to Cadence Weapon, 21-year-old DJ, MC and producer. The Canadian's new record Afterparty Babies is, really, so good. So good that I’ve re-written this review like 98 times already, to try to do it justice»

Zeeb? - Zeeb? As Thermal Detonator In Gargantuan Rock Monster

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

Zeeb? are a band with a question mark in their name, and we all know that can only mean one thing… Yup, this is a bunch of guys in a garage somewhere in Ipswich playing dirty, punk-fuelled alternative rock who probably don’t get out much. And this is made completely clear through their music, with songs called ‘Chainsaw Lurve’, ‘Drinkin’ Gasoline’, and the tentatively-titled ‘Lube it up Ho!’»

Child Pornography - She's Got Legs

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

Unfortunately, as whimsical and clever as it is to name your band Child Pornography, it can only be bad when your tunes are boring, outdated and repetitive, and can’t even live up to the somewhat expected promise of humour. She’s Got Legs offers to its listener 16 tracks which can only be described as sounding almost identical, crappy and poorly-programmed»

CHRUIS NIZZ REVIEW

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

What does this EP sound like? Imagine Death Cab for Cutie at their absolute sappiest, with Ben Gibbard replaced by what can only be described as an absolutely tone-deaf and whiny Canadian who’s doing something somewhere between spoken word and sobbing»

Chris Read - The Diary

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

At Hip-Hop University with a history exam you're not prepared for? By owning this mix by London DJ Chris Read you’re fine! Partying in the Bronx tomorrow night? Bring this – you’ll also be fine! How perfect is that»

Hot Chip at London Camden Electric Ballroom, Thu 22 Nov

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

They begin by assaulting the crowd with pounding tribal percussion, and all the sweaty teenagers and crappy hipsters begin to forget who they are – and the fact that they’re not cool enough to be hipsters – losing themselves like true dweebs in the rhythm of Hot Chip’s music»

Goldmund - Two Point Discrimination

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

This is the type of record that will probably not receive much attention, but in the long-run I’m certain Goldmund will receive a loyal following, and hopefully inspire many future songwriters»

Mos Def at London Islington Academy, Sun 25 Nov

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

It's night two of two for rapper turned actor and sometime rapper Mos Def in London, and DiS is down the front with a rather less-than-bouncing crowd. Too polite? Perhaps Brits just can't dance like the NYC lyricist would like»

White Magic - Dark Stars (EP)

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

White Magic possess the ability to become something really unique, so they may still obtain the ability to transform their memorable and grandiose melodies into truly unforgettable ballads»

Nas - Greatest Hits

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

This definitely isn’t a record for established Nas fans; it is instead a record for a new generation of hip-hop lovers, those who missed out on this significant urban icon and his lyrical mastery»

Y Society - Travel At Your Own Pace

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

When listening to and thinking about music, the concept of ‘flow’ holds a great deal of importance with myself. I often find that my favourite records may not be the ones with the best songs, or even by the best bands or artists, but the ones that have a certain flow throughout the entirety of the record...»

Supermayer - Save The World

Review by Chrizzz Nizzzz

Supermayer are vintage. I don’t mean ‘vintage’ in the more fashionable, now sense of the word – which brings to mind a certain retro-fashion-chic, and musically implies a presently dominant electro sound full of squelchy, pulsating synthesizers, crunchy 8-Bit beats and usually a cowbell or two. No, no...»
