» Review of the week: Dinosaur Jr

low res general dino#4A4B1C
Touring with their original line-up, J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph, Dinosaur Jr took us back to the late ‘80s and the birth of grunge.  Beautifully, ear-bleedingly loud, the band transported the largely 30-something audience to the genesis of the sound that influenced Nirvana amongst others.  Despite the intervening years, Dinosaur Jr did not disappoint, and Mascis’ unique droning vocals were a delight to hear again. They played a good selection of old stuff and some great new tracks, from current album Farm, that show how consistent – yet still fresh and exciting – their sound is.

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk

We have 11 special programmes, featuring artists in their own houses. So here’s your chance to go ‘through the keyhole’ so to speak as we visit the artists in their own environment.
