We Were Promised Jetpacks – Out Of Interest

Scottish indie rockers We Were Promised Jetpacks have had a fairly busy year already, packing in a 23 date US tour in February and working on writing for their fifth studio album. New EP ‘Out Of Interest’ is a collection of two demos from 2018 album ‘The More I Sleep,

Commonwealth Choir – ‘No End’

Philadelphia. Okay, so the first thing that springs to mind when thinking about this Pennsylvania city might be cheesesteaks, but Philly is also renowned for its arts and culture. With music just about pulsing through the city’s old bones, it’s unsurprising that it’s spawned bands like The

Wolf & Chain – An Honest Mistake

Oh emo hearts, behold! If you’ve had a 2005 sized hole in your life since the leather clad, makeup stained days of My Chemical Romance’s ‘Three Cheers’ and Panic! At The Disco’s ‘A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out’, then Wolf & Chain are here to fill it

Crossfaith – ‘Species’

Mixing heavy music with electronic / dance music isn’t exactly a new idea. From the catchy rave-rock of Enter Shikari to the panic-inducing glitchy hardcore of Code Orange, it’s a concept that the alternative crowd is now familiar and comfortable with. As such, you must now be doing something

Malevolence – ‘The Other Side’

Malevolence put themselves on the map with their 2013 debut album, the wonderfully punishing ‘Reign Of Suffering’. Regarded as something of a hardcore classic, it was a fine example of metallic hardcore, but they were only to better it. Their 2017 album ‘Self Supremacy’ offered a broader sound by

Chapter and Verse – ‘Love & Error’

2019 was quite the year for Chapter and Verse. After they made their way around the UK supporting the likes of Emarosa, Poets of The Fall, and Press To Meco, as well as squeezing in their own headline shows and the release of sophomore EP ‘Glow’, we didn’t have

Sunflower x Poisonous Birds – ‘Low Tide and the Dying Sun’

Aside from a single track released under his project, Sunflower, it’s been a while since we’ve heard anything from Mark Holley, and what a drought it’s been. His main project, Black Foxxes, have been all but silent since 2018 but as we await what will inevitably be

Wild Cat Strike – ‘Mustard Coloured Years’

Brighton quartet Wild Cat Strike defy genre. Despite attempts to pigeonhole them into a specific scene or sound, they strive to push themselves to develop unique, sonically exquisite soundscapes, and with the release of latest EP ‘Mustard Coloured Years’, they’ve continued that trend. Recorded in the spring of 2019
