The weather has turned, festival season is in its death throes, and the debut from USA Nails is on its way, writhing and retching its way towards us in a haze of weird dread. TLE were at ArcTanGent this year to catch the band's set and soak up their darkly humorous and nihilistic noise-rock. The new tracks aired there had us feeling all tingly inside, like a water balloon filled with tapeworms. Hopefully the video for 'I Am Normal' will...

By Daniel Mackenzie (@EkcaLiena) Another year reaches the point where wind is not welcome relief from sun but a frown-inducing reminder of the coming cold, and another brand new festival arrives on the shores of Brighton. 2014 saw the one-day experimental sound and performance art extravaganza that was Fort Process; this year Brighton Alternative Jazz Festival seeks to address the heinous mainstream festival mislabelling that has irked followers of the genre's more faithful shades. BAJF will somewhat prestigiously occupy The Old...

By Nathan Lee, TLE Correspondent  A new study has found Brits throw away over £22,000 worth of items in their lifetime, with almost £3,500 worth of clothes and £2,000 worth of electrical goods binned. The poll of 2,000 adults found that an average 59 non-perishable items are flung out or given away every year despite being in good working order. Non-perishable items commonly flung from the house included CDs and DVDs, clothes that no longer appeal and toys that fall out of...

Volcanologist Dr. Andrews and astrophysicist Dr. Carpineti have a ponder on the planetary peculiarities of Star Wars. Since today is Force Friday, it would seem pertinent – and wonderfully geeky of us – to discuss some real science that goes on in the fictional universe of the galaxy far, far away. Planetary ideas and descriptions have been very hit and miss throughout the saga – if you’re aware of a little planetary science, that is. The concept of Tatooine orbiting...
