Sumo Cyco – ‘Lost In Cyco City’

Rock’s top women over the past decade including the likes of Brody Dahl, Hayley Williams, Gwen Stefani and the more recent Lzzy Hale of Halestorm and Becca McIntyre of Marmozets all have at least one thing in common. They have never supported Britney Spears, and weren’t signed to

Babymetal – ‘Babymetal’

What would happen if the worlds of J-Pop and metal fused? It may be a question no one asked, but producer Kobametal’s Babymetal have the answer. They are a trio comprised of three singers and dancers Su-Metal, Yuimetal and Moametal, all in their mid-late teens. It’s all too

Popes Of Chillitown – ‘To The Moon’

Looking for the album to boost your serotonin levels over the summer months? Then look no further, Popes Of Chillitown with ‘To The Moon’ will have everyone running around in circles, ‘skanking’ the summer away. Sounding like the bastard child of Capdown and Skindred, POC have created a release

Citizen – ‘Everybody Is Going To Heaven’

It seems like only yesterday Citizen released their critically acclaimed debut ‘Youth’, which was filled with emotive lyrical musings over melodic punk sweetness, and there’s no denying it drew more than a few comparisons to a certain Long Island, NY band. In the two years that have passed

Thomas Nicholas Band – ‘Security’

The name Thomas Nicholas may not be familiar to many, but he’s still instantly recognisable as the actor who played Kevin in the American Pie films, particularly to those who were in their teens at the same time as the characters on screen. And since 2008 Thomas has

Broadside – ‘Old Bones’

Many have claimed pop-punk as a genre had died over the years, but there sure is an abundance of it in 2015. With a yearly resurgence of similar-sounding bands each hating on their home town, drinking their weight in coffee, and proclaiming their undying love for their friends;

Coal Chamber – ‘Rivals’

Coal Chamber ended quite abruptly back in 2003, their very public disintegration a sign that things were not at all right. With their original line-up reformed, Coal Chamber have released their latest album ‘Rivals’, front man Dez Farara stating that a lot of metal

Going Away Party – ‘Going Away Party’

It is rare that at a relatively small level bands get to record their debut album and release it through a label, but that is exactly what Going Away Party have already achieved in their short time together. Their Self Titled album will be released

Sorority Noise – ‘Joy, Departed’

If everyone was to be completely honest, the whole “emo-revival” thing has become a little saturated now, and almost weekly a new band comes along with a scrappy guitar sound and lovelorn lyrics. On their first album ‘Forgettable’, Sorority Noise fit the bill perfectly, however the album was

The LaFontaines – ‘Class’

Five years ago, Scottish quintet The LaFontaines stormed onto the scene amid a flurry of gritty riffs and hip-hop. They initially made their break at T In the Park and, since then, they haven’t looked back. They’ve shared stages alongside Twin Atlantic, All Time Low, The Blackout, and
