Mike Oldfield – Hergest Ridge

The phrase “difficult second album” might have been coined specifically for Mike Oldfield, such was the enormity of his Tubular Bells debut in 1973. A soon to be iconic calling card, it squatted in the UK Top 10 for close to a year, its longevity partially due to a signature passage featuring prominently in The Exorcist that same year; a high profile that (initially, at least) sat awkwardly with its reclusive maker. THE NEW ISSUE OF UNCUT STARS BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, SLY STONE, SCOTT WALKER, NEIL YOUNG, WET LEG, BLONDIE, BOOKER T, SADE AND MUCH MORE – CLICK HERE TO HAVE IT DELIVERED Advertisement His paymasters at Virgin Records were still counting the not-inconsiderable cash from their out-of-leftfield runaway success when Oldfield jumped in his car and drove off to find somewhere conducive to writing a follow-up. He alighted upon Kington, a Herefordshire town of 3,000 inhabitants close to the border with Wales, and in the shadow of the elongated hill that would ultimately give the new LP its title. The label might have been happy with more of the same, but for Oldfield the intention was perhaps to escape the hullabaloo that went hand-in-hand with being flavour of the month,… Read More →

Introducing the new Uncut: Springsteen, Sly Stone, Neil Young, Wet Leg, Scott Walker and more

The news broke of Sly Stone‘s death hours before this issue of Uncut was due at the printers, so huge thanks to the team for some frantic but ultimately successful work remaking the issue to honour his memory. CLICK HERE TO GET THE NEW ISSUE OF UNCUT DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR Advertisement What constitutes a ‘lost’ album? It’s a question we routinely ask ourselves, as record companies empty their cupboards of old tapes in the hope of finding unreleased gold. As countless Uncut features attest, Neil Young has been steadily releasing caches from his fabled repository of ‘lost’ albums – the most recent, Oceanside Countryside, arrived in March. Now Bruce Springsteen has opened his vault to unveil unreleased full-length records of his own. For this issue’s cover story, Peter Watts’ research and interviews reveal the unexpected nature of Springsteen’s shadow discography: for an artist so closely associated with a specific band, it’s fascinating how much of this music has either been recorded solo or in the company of musicians other than his doughty lieutenants in the E Street Band. Critically, though, while Young’s ‘lost’ records have been the subject of intense speculation for decades, it transpires that the contents and… Read More →

Nick Cave turned down Morrissey’s invitation to perform “anti-woke screed” on new track

The Who’s 20 greatest songs… as chosen by Roger Daltrey

In this feature from Uncut’s October 2001 issue [Take 68], Roger Daltrey reviews his side of The Who’s story, providing track-by-track commentary on The Who’s most explosive singles… _______________________ A miserable October day in London, 2002. Roger Daltrey is staring out of the window at the colourless metropolitan sky, looking smart but sombre in a dark pin-stripe suit. Ominously, Uncut’s interview with The Who’s vocal powerhouse comes the afternoon following a memorial service for bassist John Entwistle, who died on June 27 this year; on the eve of a scheduled tour of America which they valiantly honoured (roping in Pino Paladino as an emergency replacement for ‘the Ox’). Twenty-four years after the death of drummer Keith Moon in September 1978, Entwistle’s passing now means that Daltrey and guitarist/songwriting genius Pete Townshend are the last men standing in England’s other great surviving rock band. Advertisement Lest we forget, back in the ’60s The Who were the only British combo who proved themselves worthy of ranking alongside The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, turning the hierarchy of UK pop from a dynamic duo into a holy trinity.

Reviewed! Pulp, The O2, London, June 13, 2025

Tonight, Jarvis Cocker tells the audience, is a “high pressure evening”. It’s Pulp’s first time playing The O2 – capacity: 20,000 – and the third night of their arena tour in support of new album More; the gig is also being filmed; and, perhaps most importantly, it’s Cocker’s wedding anniversary and his wife is in the audience. Why, then, does Jarvis seem so relaxed in front of the thousands filling the floor and lining the walls of this huge space? Perhaps it’s the number one album they’ve just bagged today, or perhaps it’s the fact that More has been a bigger success with fans and critics alike than anyone would have imagined, even the band. After all, it’s been 24 years since Pulp last released an LP – 2001’s excellent but awkward We Love Life – and it’s been a long time since their stock was this high. In 2002, for instance, their Hits album reached the giddy heights of #72 in the UK.

Van Morrison – Remembering Now

Let’s go back. Let’s go way, way, way back – to the mystic avenue and the ancient highway; to the days when the rains came and the days of blooming wonder; to Orangefield, Hyndford Street and the Church of Ireland where the Sunday six bells chime. To the days before dodgy anti-lockdown sermonising and endless albums of duets and re-recordings, skiffle, R&B and blues covers. To the time, one might argue, when Van Morrison took his unique and vaulting talents seriously. THE JULY 2025 ISSUE OF UNCUT IS AVAILABLE TO ORDER NOW: STARRING NICK DRAKE, A 15-TRACK NEW MUSIC CD, THE WHO, BLACK SABBATH, BRIAN ENO, MATT BERNINGER, PULP, BOB WEIR AND MORE Advertisement Without wishing to oversell it, the best of Remembering Now – at least half of the 14 tracks – finds Morrison on his finest form since the late ’80s and early ’90s. The title refers not only to the recurring lyrical theme of a man in his eightieth year simultaneously inhabiting both his past and present, but the rich sense of musical retrieval, too. Throughout, Morrison consciously invokes key moments from across his six-decade recording career, most frequently the lushly meditative landscape of albums such as… Read More →

The Emotional Depth of Chalumeau’s Special Release “My Hands Are Tied”

It’s easy to be skeptical of academic types who pivot to pop music. Too often, the result feels overthought, underfelt — a sonic dissertation no one asked for. But Chalumeau, the project of Brown University professors Katherine Bergeron and Butch Rovan, sidesteps this trap with startling grace. On “My Hands Are Tied,” they deliver something intimate, unflinching, and quietly devastating. The song’s strength is in its paradox. The narrator claims emotional detachment, but the music says otherwise. Rovan’s arrangement leads with a kind of polished tension — guitar lines that sound like questions without answers — and Bergeron’s vocals play the role of a narrator who’s not as in control as she wants to be. It’s all the more powerful because it doesn’t try to overwhelm you. Instead, it lingers, like the memory of a conversation that never got finished. You can hear the weight of history here. The song originated years ago, written by Rovan at a time when the idea of their relationship was still just a theory. Since then, it’s evolved — not just lyrically, but emotionally. There’s a lived-in quality to it now, a fragility that can’t be faked. It’s the sound of people who know… Read More →

Pete Shelley – Homosapien/XL-1 (reissues, 1981, ’83)

When Pete Shelley returned to Genetic Studios in leafy Berkshire in February 1981, the plan had been to sketch out songs for the fourth Buzzcocks album with the band’s trusted producer Martin Rushent. Trouble was, neither Shelley nor Rushent could face working on Buzzcocks material. That ship had sailed: 1980 was not a vintage year for the band whose effervescent power-pop had shown that punk could be fun and vulnerable, whose run of blistering singles from ’77 to ’79 meant so much to so many, and the way Shelley was withholding his new ideas from the rest of the group suggested that something was up. Other warning signs, noted by bandmate Steve Diggle in his book Harmony In My Head, included Shelley moaning to the press about how unhappy he was and how restricted he felt in the band, telling journalists, “Punk is dead”, and saying how he wanted to explore the possibilities of electronic music.

David Byrne announces new album, Who Is The Sky?

Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts – Talkin To The Trees

WHEN Neil Young cut short last summer’s tour with Crazy Horse – owing, it later transpired, to exhaustion – you could have been forgiven for thinking that one of music’s most restless and hyper-productive artists would finally be forced to slow down. As if. Just a few months later, Young unveiled the Chrome Hearts, a new band who perhaps coincidentally share the same initials as their illustrious forebears. Ostensibly pulled together to honour existing commitments at last autumn’s Farm Aid 2024 and Harvest Moon Gathering benefit, the Chrome Hearts have since become Young’s latest creative allies – rescuing him from a period of writer’s block to produce Talkin To The Trees and, soon, his first world tour for six years.
