I have uncovered some B-sides from Lily Allen’s most recent album It’s Not Me, It’s You. Well, they’re not B-sides of the album as such, but B-sides of the various singles accompanying it.

Anyway, I figure a lot of people will not have heard these, so in a similar fashion to what I did for Kate Nash’s B-sides, click away for some free music.

Kabul Shit

And here are two more:

So I was listening to some of Kate’s B-sides. I had to hunt them down because I am such a huge fan of hers. There’s some pretty good stuff that she’s done that really should have made it to her album.

Here’s one of my favourites, Stitching Leggings.

Enjoy!

I love and hate recommending music to people. Music is a very personal thing and most people (including myself) are set in their ways and will only listen to a particular genre, subset of artists or songs from some long gone era back when vinyl was the dog’s bollocks.

Thanks to a certain app on Facebook used to “compare people”, I am well aware that I have terrible taste in music (but then again, it also says that I have the best hair and that I’m the most dateable of all my friends).

So if you don’t mind transgressing into my world for a second, you must listen to the music of Emma Pollock formerly of The Delgados. She has recently released her debut album, Watch the Fireworks. Once again, no reviews from me - I’m not that deep or sophisticated. Just listen and hopefully you might like it.

You can hear a few tracks for free on her website.
