I finally made it onto the front cover. There I am, being cuddled in the photo, which in turn is being cuddled by Sam off of Beaker. Welcome to the Wonderful World of Martha. Read all about it at nightshiftmag.co.uk/2026/may…

Nearly Christmas? This year I want a hamster. In the meantime, it must be time for Nightshift's Tracks of the Year. No Cat Power, Pussy Galore or Sampurr the Great sadly, but apparently it's all very lovely. Like me nightshiftmag.co.uk/2025/dec…

Nightshift delivery day is exhausting as you can see. Lugging all those boxes around the county. Not that I lifted a paw to help. I lay on the desk and guarded the office from dragons and upbeat funky blues-rock bands. Anyway, the new issue is out and I have a new box to sit in.

Me and my fellow @NightshiftMag desk botherer Troughton have been working very hard to get the new issue out and it's online now at nightshiftmag.co.uk/2025/nov…. There's even an interview with Big Ginger Tom in there.

It's demo review day apparently so I'm going to bake my brain under the radiator to dull the pain. Update: the radiator isn't on. Will this cruelty and neglect never end?

Apparently October's cover stars Unbelievable Truth are playing a homecoming gig at The Bullingdon tomorrow. I once caught a golden eagle in the back garden. That's a different sort of unbelievable truth.

Since what used to be Twitter seems to be completely dead now, thinking of handing over this account to Martha the Nightshift cat for regular updates on how she's disrupting work on the next issue. What do you reckon? She's even less tolerant of soulless soft rock than me.

Nightshift loves Emma Hunter - and so, it seems, does everyone else. They're on the cover of the new @omsmagazine out now at back2left.co.uk/wp-content/u…. Chris at @Strummer_Room recommends some great records and I've just bought the Skloss album off the back of that. Ace psych noise.

Print copy of September's Nightshift is out there now, waiting for you. Like fate. Like love. Like a sniper. But armed with fancy rude words rather than bullets. Or if you prefer old-time online, it's also here nightshiftmag.co.uk/2025/sep…. Six pages of gigs. Go to gigs.
