Sympathetic Affliction, Snowblind @ Bar Blu, Rhyl
(review n pix neil crud)
Three and a half years ago I saw a very young band play at MASE in Llandudno, they impressed me despite their love of Radiohead, which was the sound of the time. Time moves on and so do trends and last year while Thom Yorke searched high up his own arse for a new genre, a new sound, a new approach, Matt Bellamy snuck up behind him, gave out a swift kick and stole the mantle with the sheer awesome power that is Muse.
