I'm not here any more!

I'm over at the far glossier juderogers.com where I have been for bloody ages. Come say hello!

A new website, Lady Di, and the boys of London


First things first. My new website, where the work I've done recently will be shown in a rather more attractive way than what I can muster here, is nearly done. Go to juderogers.com if you can bear to put up with teething troubles over the next few weeks. That angry capital letter typeface will change too, I tell you!

Also, I have set up a new blog over on Posterous , which is feeding through to the right side of the website's home page. On Posterous, I'll be linking to my work as usual, but also posting transcriptions of interesting interviews to give those pieces more depth, and also other bits of ephemera and nonsense that I fancy shoving up there. Be warned!

But while we change over from here to there, here's my interview with 2008 X Factor semi-finalist Diana Vickers, returning to our screens and radio stations this month as a finely-scrubbed pop star, and my review of Barry Miles' rather patchy ode to capital city counterculture, London Calling in the New Statesman.

Hips! Lips! Tits! Power!


In today's Courtney Love-edited issue of The Guardian's Film and Music Weekly, you'll find my piece about angry women in rock, stuffed with mini-interviews with Joan Jett, Kristin Hersh, Kathleen Hanna and more. Read it here.

Oh Boy


Would you like to read an intellectual piece on the ways in which boy bands were nothing but good for us women? Well, I wrote one, for the members magazine of private members club (coo, me) Soho House. Navigate its fancy digital edition here.

Rae Of Sunshine


I interviewed Corinne Bailey Rae for the Times the other week, and really wanted to write about the way she is always dismissed as a pretty, weeping widow. Corinne was more than happy to oblige. The piece was published in yesterday's paper, but read more here.

Saint Bernard


Stop everything! My interview with one of my all-time heroes, Bernard Sumner , is up now on The Quietus website. Hoorah indeed.

Return of Lamacq


My Word Of Mouth interview with the marvellous Steve Lamacq, surprisingly brimming with his love for Ian Rankin and compilations of '70s glam rock, is in the new issue of Word. Err, that's it. Subscribe here.
