Interview: Tom Meighan of Kasabian

Submitted by kganapathy on Thu, 2012-02-23 11:17

You’ve gone from obscure psychedelic titles [previous release West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum] to dinosaur names. What’s going on?
It just sounds good, you know. I could have used the word “triceratops”! It’s just that I’m obsessed with Latin words and prehistoric things. Well, not obsessed but I like the way they sound.
 
You seem to have calmed down a bit since you started out. Are you a different band now?

Two apps that can help you save on cocktails

Submitted by Hidayah Salamat on Wed, 2012-01-18 16:23

If, like us, your resolution for 2012 was to stop splurging on overpriced cocktails and learn how to make your own, then you’ll love Liquor Cabinet (for iOS, US$0.99 from the App Store). The best of an ever-increasing number of drink recipe apps, it allows you to custom build your concoction based either on what you have to hand or what you’d like to end up with.

With this year's economy looking as bleak as it does, it may be a good idea to stay out of the Singapore nightclubs once in awhile for some DIY. Here are some useful cocktail recipe apps.
