A Day To Remember – ‘You’re Welcome’

It’s been five long years since their last record, but now pop-punk metal crossover kings A Day To Remember are back with their brand new album ‘You’re Welcome’. A band that shot to prominence way back in 2007 with their pioneering genre hybrid, quickly becoming an alt-culture household

Dreamshade – ‘A Pale Blue Dot’

Tigers Jaw – ‘I Won’t Care How You Remember Me’

When more than half the band unexpectedly quit back in 2013, it would have been so easy for the remaining members of Tigers Jaw to call it a day right there and then. Thank the emo gods that they didn’t, because the work that guitarist/vocalist Ben Walsh and vocalist/keyboardist

Based out of Phoenix, Arizona, singer-songwriter and self-confessed bedroom daydreamer Sydney Sprague kicked off her musical journey late last year with a run of singles from debut LP ‘maybe i will see you at the end of the world’. Lead single and album opener ‘i refuse to

NOFX – ‘Single Album’

There have been times during their almost 40-year career that a new NOFX record has all the hallmarks of a band going through the motions. A collection of songs that have seemingly been created merely out of an obligation of fulfilling a contract, leaving absolutely no lasting

Julien Baker – ‘LITTLE OBLIVIONS’

When you have released two well regarded albums and you need inspiration for your third, what do you? Julien Baker went back to school. Not the most promising start, you might think, but her songs have always been deeply personal affairs. During her time learning, combined with two years

Having reached an era of music where the concept of genre is slowly fading out of existence, it’s not uncommon to find albums made up of tracks that sound nothing like one another. And while the idea of ‘incoherence’ may be considered by some as a negative,
