Live Music coming up

Featured below are a selection of bands that we are looking forward to seeing live in London or Cambridge on forthcoming tours, or at the ATP Festival curated by Explosions in the Sky this May. Check back here and we will add gig photos after we've seen them.

Special Offers for February

This month we're offering discounts on some classic Domino releases, to celebrate the label's 15 years. We've also got some reduced prices running in honour of Lau's success at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. See our Featured section below for an indication of the range of bands. All reductions are running until the end of February...

Album Reviews

You may have noticed that since we launched our new improved Rhythm Online, we've been including reviews for lots of new releases. These come courtesy of our friends at The Line of Best Fit blog (see the link on our 'About Us' page). We don't necessarily always agree with the opinions, or the scores given, but they are always interesting and informed. See 'Featured' below.

Heads scratched, pencils sharpened, arguments resolved: here is Rhythm Online's (by no means definitive) list of 2007's top releases. These are the albums (or compilations, or EPs) that soundtracked *our* year. 2007 was pretty fine - here's wishing you all a great 2008 too.
