Nervus – ‘Everything Dies’

‘Everything Dies’ is a ten track album ringing with raw and poignant sentiment. Heavily driven by sincere lyrics, it offers a chance to reflect and critique, without leaving out the darkest and most fragile thoughts. Songwriter Em Foster uses her own experiences to give a personal touch to their

Earth Caller – ‘Crystal Death’

Australian band Earth Caller shot down the fast lane in their early career; their first album ‘Degenerate’ made a mark in hardcore. Soon after, the band imploded with front man Josh Collard being the last man standing. Armed with a new line-up, ‘Crystal Death’ has arrived.

We Were Sharks – ‘Lost Touch’

Recent Victory Records signees We Were Sharks are back with a follow-up to their 2015 release ‘Not A Chance’ and though it’s been a while, these tracks are worth the wait. If you’re yet to hear the Canadian sextet, this is the perfect place to start; tracks

Conjurer – ‘Mire’

Heavy metal was, at its point of conception, very British. Though you could argue yourself blue in the face whether the very first truly ‘metal’ band was Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath (it’s Sabbath, don’t be a dummy), either way you cut it, the fact is that

Feed The Rhino – ‘The Silence’

Kent hardcore rockers and all-round, loud as fuck gentlemen Feed The Rhino have returned with their eight studio album, ‘The Silence’, and let’s say this right off the bat: it’s their best work to date. It’s crazy to think that Feed The Rhino have been around for the best part of

Death Pedals – ‘Death Pedals’

Following the release of this self-titled album and a short run of gigs ending on February 17, London DIY punks Death Pedals will call it a day. That makes this review difficult to write, as this record is so exciting that it would be great to spout off about

Good Tiger – ‘We Will All Be Gone’

Good Tiger return with their sophomore album, ‘We Will All Be Gone’, after debuting ‘A Head Full of Moonlight’ back in 2015. With every song on this latest offering, it’s clear that they’ve taken the past three years to truly hone their sound, offering a more cohesive

Hotel Books – ‘Equivalency’

Spoken word emo is a very niche, marmite genre. For every person who worships of the altar of La Dispute, Listener and Mewithoutyou there’s another who would rather stick pins in their eyes than listen to someone read slam poetry over an Appleseed Cast instrumental. If you’re the latter,

Machine Head – ‘Catharsis’

If you’ve toured the world countless times, sold over a million records and near enough reached the pinnacle of the metal world, it’s fair to start taking some risks. American heavy metal titans Machine Head have done exactly that with their latest album ‘Catharsis’. At a point in their
