Noise Annoys: Fat Dog bite back with Cancel Me (Iâm Tired) while Kolobok offer No Downers, plus new tunes from Our Krypton Son and Andrew McGibbon Jnr (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Noise Annoys is back with a bang, not to mention a crash and a wallop, with words on the debut album from Belfast noiseniks Kolobok. Released next Friday, No Downers features a feast of good old-fashioned guitar/bass/drums/hollering-based rocking, with a focus on âmassive stupid riffsâ, as the trio themselves put it. You may already have heard their recent double-A-side single Ringo/Gorilla, the tracks which open and close No Downers respectively. Ringo is a punky, fuzzed-out stomper with pl
Dublin comic Jason Byrne on marking 30 years of stand-up, the friends he knew before they were famous and why Tommy Tiernan is his secret nemesis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cast your mind back to 1996, when a handful of fresh-faced young Irishmen reached the finals of the high-profile So You Think Youâre Funny? comedy competition at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Tommy Tiernan won the coveted prize, with Jason Byrne coming in a close second: other finalists included Lucy Porter and Micky Flanagan, who would also go on to great success. âTommy beat me by one point and heâs been my Edinburgh nemesis ever since,â laughs Byrne. âHe doesnât know yet, though.

Read excerpt

With ânormalâ cars becoming an increasing rarity in a marketplace crowded with bloated SUVs, Mazdaâs liftbacked revival of its long-running 6 series (born as the 626 in the 1970s) is a sleek and understated breath of fresh air. Park one up alongside the current Honda Civic and the car the 6e is clearly aimed at stealing customers away from, the Tesla Model 3, and it would almost give you some hope for the automotive indust

Weâve seen images in the city centre you never wo
âI was worried about upsetting Enniskillenâ: Skintown screenwriter Ciarán McMenamin on adapting his hometown-set novel into an award-winning film (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Itâs almost 10 years since actor Ciarán McMenaminâs debut novel Skintown was published to positive reviews drawing comparisons with other gritty, darkly humorous literary tales of youthful, substance-addled chaos like Irvine Welshâs Trainspotting and John Nivenâs Kill Your Friends. Now, the movie version of Skintown is set to bring the drug-dealing misadventures of Enniskillen natives Vinny (Jack Rowan) and Jonty (Chris Walley) to cinemas. Also starring Jamie-Lee OâDonnell, Hope Ikpok
