Whilst Russian Girlfriend's www.russiangirlfriend.co.uk influences take in Muse, Suede, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead etc, the style is all their own – Russian Girlfriend have truly created something fresh and distinctive – “truly original” and “…in defiance of today’s stereotypes”. The sound blends dark romance and passion with a high energy and evokes images of ‘another time, another place’, somewhere distant and foreign yet strangely welcoming. The classical, flowing style of Jools’ guitar weaves effortlessly in and out of Matt’s harsher, more gutteral guitar sound, while bassist Rob and drummer Dave fly around the rhythm section pinning the elements together. The vocal style is as unique as it is enthralling – piercing, passionate and at the same time haunting. Never is a note off key. The resulting songs are hard to forget
Pete Chambers - BBC Radio WM:- “Russian Girlfriend - romantically brooding and emotionally powerful”.
Ben Glover – Storm digital radio:– “They could be huge. In fact, I hope they will be!”
Helen Finch – AiiRadio:– “one track certainly isn’t enough”

Well, I must say - that's totally bizarre!
I think the bottom frame was having trouble loading due to the web counter (the stats page has been playing silly buggers for over a week now - I guess it was only time before the counter stopped working, too) The frame was loading eventually, but it took several refreshes to do so which is no good whichever way you look at it.
I've taken off the counter for the time being and the frame does appear to be loading ok.
Give that a try. If it still doesn't work, let me know, & I'll try plan B
Cheers,
Jools |
