The PT Sessions: Don Broco

Those lovely boys in Don Broco have recorded a PT session ahead of their single release tomorrow. Check out ‘Dreamboy’ below, then go pick up a copy of the single tomorrow!

Bastions – Island Living

Skyway – Take These Days

Skyway peddle mosh-pop-punk (urgh, I hate that term, but it’s so apt). Think New Found Glory at their sketchiest (vocals) or Set Your Goals at their most straightforward (music) and you’ve pretty much nailed Skyway down. There isn’t anything here that breaks

I was intrigued as to who could possible be supporting 3OH!3 and actually wasn’t that surprised to hear that the support was in fact mixing duo L’Amour La Morgue. A little bit slow to catch on I didn’t realise it was actually them

Canterbury/Not Advised tour reminder…

Just a reminder that the PT-sponsored Canterbury/Not Advised tour starts very, very soon. We’ll have contests to win tickets, CDs, shirts and all sorts of other stuff to come as well as on-the-road videos, interviews and all that jazz. To get you in the mood

Energy announce 3-song EP

Taken from the Bridge 9 mailout: “Boston, MA’s Energy is back with a three-song EP that will shatter everything you thought you knew about the band. Incredibly melodic with haunting keyboards, catchy choruses, soaring vocals and intricate guitar work, the Walk Into The Fire EP is one of the
