Originally published in Uncut Take 162 (November 2010 issue)… John is in Primal Scream therapy, Paul has escaped to the Scottish wilds, George is working on his masterpiece… But what about RINGO? We discover the irrepressible drummer making a psychedelic movie with Peter Sellers, a lush oldies album with George Martin and a pioneering country album with the cream of Nashville session cats. Oh, and giving a little help to his oldest friends, of course… THE AFTERMATH OF The Beatles’ break-up was a time of searching questions. How had it happened? What role had Yoko played? Was Paul innocent or…

Is this viral marketing… or something far more unsettling? A disturbing digital campaign has been spreading across social media and public spaces, but no one seems to know how it begun or what it’s for. Over recent weeks, reports have surfaced of cryptic “missing person” posters appearing in unexpected locations.

Barcelona-based producer and audiovisual artist Zora Jones opens a new chapter with 50 Bullets, the first single from her forthcoming sophomore album 50 Bullets To The Heart, due later this year. The track places her vocals at the centre for the first time, turning heartbreak, anger, and emotional recovery into a club-pop structure built on icy production, spectral scratches, and Miami bass pressure.Zora Jones by Alex BallanoJones describes the single as “pain turned into power,” written as a way to reclaim her voice after a period shaped by fear, doubt, and shrinking herself for others. That tension drives the track:…
The Heretics’ “Tidal Waves” is a powerful return from the England, UK-based band. It is only their second ever track, following their lead single “Bends & Breaks”, but listen to this: you wouldn’t have thought that. It is one of those unapologetically rock-heavy tracks that is going to get you hooked from the first minute…. ahigh-energy rock anthem built for festivals, mosh pits, and big-stage impact.I have been listening to a lot of Feeder recently, and this song reminded me of their earlier work, so the first time I gave “Tidal Waves” a spin, I was instantly invested in it.…

Belle and Sebastian | Saint EtienneThe Piece Hall, Halifax22nd June 2026If You’re Feeling Sinister turns 30 this year, the album that took Belle and Sebastian from charming bedroom outliers to the architects of a shadow kingdom of misfits, malcontents, and the unconvinced. Thirty years on, songwriter Stuart Murdoch and his band returned to it in full, alongside support from Saint Etienne, for a sold-out anniversary show at The Piece Hall in Halifax on Sunday night. Thomas Sidwell was there.Arguably the high point of their back catalogue, Belle and Sebastian played the album front to back on a glorious Sunday evening…
Here at Uncut, Americana is very much at the heart of what we do. It was, legendarily, on a 1996 trip to interview Lambchop that founding editor Allan Jones started to think that what he was witnessing had a place in a different kind of magazine than the one he was currently editing. As you’ll come to understand as you read this new magazine, a lot has changed in that 30 years – but a lot has stayed the same. Uncut has continued to champion new music from across the spectrum, from minimal techno to drone metal, but Americana –…
A warm, hopeful record straight from the heart of British Columbia.Steve Martin once said that you just can’t sing a depressing song when you’re playing the banjo. He had a point: there’s an inherent buoyancy to the banjo; it tends to make you want to go jog merrily down the road, kicking stones into trees.Now, the previous release by four-time Juno Award-winning songwriters and banjo builders Pharis and Jason Romero was, as you might expect from professional custom banjo builders, very banjo-centric. Not so with These Are the Days That Turn Into Years. The duo’s seventh studio record was recorded…
