  • The Essex Green - Cannibal Sea

    Artist: The Essex Green Album: Cannibal Sea Label: Track & Field A bit of a mixed bag this. From some extraordinarily catchy pop on Don't Know Why (You Stay) to bland country folk pop elsewhere, it isn't exactly consistent. A Sasha Bell project

  • Tapes n Tapes - The Loon

    Artist: Tapes n Tapes; Album: The Loon; Label: XL Tapes n Tapes' debut album comes so heavily laden with hype that it is easy to form an opinion prior to actually hearing it. The indie quartet from Minneapolis were the beneficiaries of a major label

  • Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend: Legacy Edition

    Artist: Matthew Sweet; Album: Girlfriend: Legacy Edition; Label: Volcano Back in 1991, Matthew Sweet created the perfect pop rock album, a wonderful wrap of the best sounds that Big Star, The Byrds, Neil Young and Cheap Trick had to offer. Sweet's

  • Stylish S-Max with plenty of cabin space

    THE latest model fresh from Ford's sketch pad is a seven-seat MPV called the S-Max. It is just a little smaller than the Galaxy, but it has an awful lot more presence and style. It needs to have too, in this cut-throat market. My first impression of

  • Small car has ‘big car’ benefits

    THERE seems to have been an explosion in mini MPVs in recent years and one relative latecomer to post an entry was Vauxhall with the Meriva, in 2003. This five-door five-seat family car sits between the Corsa and the Astra and looks just like a baby

  • Three pointed staR

    Another breed of car has been created by Mercedes-Benz - innovator of new car ideas. The R Class Grand Sports Tourer is without doubt a feat of crossover ingenuity. You could even say its existence encompasses the three-pointed star. Part sports saloon

  • Spur of the moment

    Bentley's Continental Flying Spur, little sibling of the gracious Arnage, is the lighter side of Bentley. At £117,500 it is the grandest limousine money can buy and is the perfect size for those who like a big car that makes a statement, yet isn't too

  • New cat on the block

    The Peugeot 407 Coupe shares the same formidable face now seen across the Peugeot range of family cars - you either love it or hate it. It was a bold step to take, I think, but you see enough Peugeots on the road to know it was the right choice. Based

  • Your bones

    206 bones support your body - over half of which are found in your hands and feet. Far from being the dry and dusty sight of any skeleton picture we may have seen, they are in fact a living part of us, with their own supply of blood and the bone tissue
