I’ve heard new Me vs Hero tunes – you’re gonna love them…

Me vs Hero are featured in today’s new Kerrang magazine, so go read it in WHSmith and then put it back on the shelf afterwards. The band have also put samples of new tracks up at www.myspace.com/mevshero

Tonight We Fire track

Tonight We Fire uploaded the new track ‘Im Outa The Veg Game’ to www.myspace.com/tonightwefire

LoveHateHero – America Underwater

‘White Lies’ was a seriously underrated record. For me it’s right up there with Ferret’s best releases and even a couple of years on I’m still putting ‘I’ll Make It To Brigades’ and ‘Red Dress’ on in-car playlists. The band seemed to be able to mix up their obvious

Without Thought – Drop Down and Give Me Infinity

The back story that accompanies this debut album from Guilford quintet Without Thought is quite the head-turner. Two years ago, as the album was readied for release, band member John fell 30ft from a tree (stop sniggering at the back, this is serious business) and suffered a

Above Them – / Amistad split

A quick review because I’m being hassled by the label to get this done (note, please don’t hassle me for reviews. It makes me want to not like you and your release). But because Above Them are quite stonkingly brilliant, this is worth a few words

Dregs of Society – Major Drainage

It would be much easier to like Dregs of Society if this record wasn’t full of so much, for want of a better term, extra-curricular gumpf. Across the board these 10 tracks clock in at nearly 31 minutes but truth be told only about half
