Conor Walsh-Hill checks out the latest band to emerge from the Chicago scene to see if the can follow in the footsteps of Fall Out Boy, Madina Lake and co…

I didn’t know what to expect when tasked with reviewing Let’s Wrestle‘s ‘In the Court of The Wrestling Let’s’, even though the title says it all. This album is sloppy, all over the place and it sounds like minimal effort has been put in, but don’t get me wrong there are a few good tracks [...]

When it comes to instrumental music 65DaysOfStatic are, from what I can gather through extensive research of past album reviews etc, probably the best example in the music business today…

In this new age of every metal band being slated, Bring Me The Horizon are no different…

Sound of Guns, as I read in an interview on this very site, are one of the most hard-working and dedicated bands to come out of Britain in the last few years. It shows on their debut album ‘What Came From Fire’…

So, The Universal‘s debut! At long last. The Universal are a mod/indie band with a passion for fashion, sponsored by Fred Perry & Gama Clothing, each big clothing distributors on the mod fashion. It looks like The Universal have had all the help they can get, and on their album cover is the band, wearing [...]

Dreadzone are sometimes trance & club, sometimes folk & reggae, at times rock and dub, but always pure and ambient. Their new album “Eye On The Horizon” is everything that Dreadzone love to do, but with a slight different sense and purpose. The 10 tracks on this album are quite simply brilliant…
