Vukovi – ‘Fall Better’

Scottish natives Vukovi gave the alt-rock scene a stern shake back in 2017, dropping their debut self-titled record to rave reviews across the board.

Anti-Flag – ’20/20 Vision’

The new year is here and there’s already fear that we could be heading into World War III – not to mention the terrifying fires in Australia, the looming uncertainty of Brexit, and the loose cannon politics of Donald Trump. With everything going on, has there ever been a

InMe – ‘Jumpstart Hope’

Essex-based rockers InMe have been consistently producing music for more than two decades, and it shows. ‘Jumpstart Hope’ has the energy and eagerness of an up-and-comer, but with the cohesion and finesse of five people who have done this before. A follow up to the 2012 ‘Trilogy: Dawn’, ‘Jumpstart

AJJ – ‘Good Luck Everybody’

A new year is meant to bring optimism. We speak of turning over a new leaf, make resolutions to better ourselves, and attempt to cut out those bad habits – that’s how it’s meant to be, or at least that’s what we like to think. Then, the

Strigoi – ‘Abandon All Faith’

Strigoi is a brand new project from Greg Mackintosh and Chris Casket, both of whom have spent time in notable heavy bands like Paradise Lost, Vallenfyre and Extreme Noise Terror. From this pedigree alone, you’re right to expect something visceral and intense, but what you won’t expect is how

Bellevue Days – ‘It Can’t Possibly Go Wrong Ever’

It seems that despite certain things ‘remaining’ the same over the last few years, a lot has changed. Not least Croydon four-piece Bellevue Days, who’s debut album ‘It Can’t Possibly Go Wrong Ever’ shows that not all change is bad. Since the release of their first EP, 2015’s ‘The

Earth Moves – ‘Human Intricacy’

It’s nearly December, which means that journalists (and music nerds in general) have started compiling their ‘Album Of The Year’ lists, hoping that nothing will sneak in at the last minute and upset all their careful planning. Unfortunately for them, Earth Moves exist. In what has already been a

False Advertising – ‘Brainfreeze’

It’s not often bands form via open-mic nights, but that’s exactly how False Advertising got started. Both Jen Hingley and Chris Warr were heavily involved in the circuit in Manchester, often duetting together. With bassist Josh Sellers involved, the early version of False Advertising fell through after trying to
