LIVE: Straight Lines at Camden Barfly [15/10/12]

Straight Lines have been enjoying critical success throughout 2012 following the release of their sophomore effort ‘Freaks Like Us’, and the subsequent appearances at a handful of home-grown festivals across the country including, but not limited to, Slam Dunk, Y Not, Redfest and Merthyr Rock. On this particularly cold

LIVE: Mallory Knox at Camden Barfly [11/10/12]

As fans turn up wet through to the skin from an autumn downpour, Mallory Knox are preparing to play London’s Camden Barfly on the sixth day of their UK tour with Reckless Love. Much has been said in the press of late surrounding this band from Cambridge. An excitement

LIVE: Young Guns – Cardiff Solus [11/10/12]

Tonight the Vans Off The Wall tour hits Cardiff with its rowdy line up of Marmozets, Your Demise, We Are The In Crowd and Young Guns. It’s a sold out show, and rightfully so, because it’s a hell of a line up. A slightly strange mixture of heavy, pop

LIVE: Of Mice & Men at Electric Ballroom, London [10/10/12]

Tonight’s show at the Electric Ballroom is well and truly sold out. The queue of teenagers snakes right up Camden High Street and around the corner, and there’s no way to escape the fact that one of the biggest metal bands around is in town. Tonight these kids are

LIVE: Tonight Alive at Barfly, London [09/10/12]

Despite their popularity in native Australia, Tonight Alive are yet to grace a stage in the UK’s capital as a headliner. Tonight’s sold out show in Camden’s 220 person sweatbox is therefore destined to become a milestone in the band’s four year history. The show marks the end of

LIVE: Jonny Craig at The Moon, Cardiff [06/10/12]

How do you solve a problem like Jonny Craig? Amidst allegations of MacBook scams along with blatant drug abuse and resulting band troubles, there was a certain sense of curiosity surrounding tonight’s show. Opening things up are two artists by the name of Ed Tullett and Dae Bryson, both an

LIVE: Lower Than Atlantis at Trinity, Bristol [03/10/12]

Tonight’s line up is an absolute cracker – Gnarwolves, Don Broco, The Dangerous Summer and Lower Than Atlantis. Bristol Trinity is a church converted into a venue, and it’s an absolutely brilliant choice to host tonight’s stellar line up. Sadly Gnarwolves go on far earlier than expected so we

LIVE: We Are The Ocean at Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff [01/10/12]

We Are The Ocean have taken their time and have now fully found their feet after their overhaul earlier on this year. As a treat for the fans they’re now revisiting intimate venues where they earned their dues before they started bothering festival main stages

LIVE: Jim Lockey & The Solemn Sun/ The People The Poet at Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff [30/09/12]

The setting for tonight’s show was the rather cramped downstairs venue in Clwb Ifor Bach, usually good for bands such as Fireworks and La Dispute who have played this floor venue before, but with two of the bands on the bill tonight featuring a fair few members it does

LIVE: Pierce The Veil at Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff [26/09/12]

After a fair few support tours in the UK, it’s fair to say that Pierce the Veil have earned their right to come over for a headline run. The San Diego post-hardcore quartet have amassed a very loyal following: couple that with an impressive new album in ‘Collide With
