In this Friday’s SpaceScan we present Danish singer/songwriter Esther Maria (and her band The Song Horse), who works in alternative country and folk, and Norwegian quintet THE SHOCK! (fond of capital letters), who have Manchester as it sounded some thirty years ago as partner in crime. You know the drill: ... 
They released their debut, ‘Chapters’, in late 2007, and now, three years on, Finnish quintet Captain Cougar have their sophomore effort out and about. ‘Of Dreams Long Gone’ is a concept album, telling the tale of an unnamed couple from early 1900s Finland from they meet, marry, propagate, are separated ...

Another Friday, another SpaceScan, this one bringing the grand 2010 total up to thirty and presenting Faroese rocker Fróði Hansen and his band The Pink Slips plus Icelandic powerpop quintet Ourlives, who both released their debut albums last year. As usual all we ask of you is a bit of ...

Which really is quite impressive in ... 
It’s been three years under way (and another seven months before hitting this corner of the www), the debut album by Norwegian psych-rock outfit Izakaya Heartbeat. I first came across them - initially a solo project by singer, guitarist and songwriter Christian Larsen which slowly turned into an six headed ...
