Music critic Doug Johnstone names the bands that will be making his nipples pucker in 2005 2004 was a bumper year for British rock, but 2005 is shaping up as the year the Yanks fight back. The start of the year is dominated by underground American rock trying to break overground. Low, . . . Trail of Dead. Mercury Rev and Bright Eyes all release fantastic new albums (two simultaneously in the case of REM pals Bright Eyes) in January. and all four acts will be playing Scottish live shows before the spring. On a more metal tip Queens of the Stoneage will be punting their massive new album, Lullabies to Para/yse. in March and touring to boot. while those more keen on car-crash. poodle-hair. LA- glam rock excess can check out a reformed Motley Crue at the SECC in June it they dare. A more sedate experience can be had with altcountry veterans American Music Club when they play King Tut's in February while the band responsible for the best album of 2004. Wilco. embark on a mini-UK tour in March. In terms of local fare. noiseniks Dead Fly Buchowski will be looking to make a splash. having signed to Beggar's Banquet and releasing their debut album in the Spring, while Sons and Daughters look set to deliver on 2004's promise with their first full length album later in the year.
