LIVE: Beartooth / Motionless In White / Stray From The Path @ Wembley Arena, London

Static and blinding lights call out from behind a blank sheet until a logo flares across like the bat signal. The crowd roars in appreciation as a silhouetted figure, full of coiled spring energy, starts to bounce, bounce, bounce…then the screen drops, confetti flies and the show erupts. This

Rolo Tomassi are one of the most under-appreciated bands in the UK scene, and it’s something that makes their fervent fan base feel both furious and quietly proud that they’re still a secret of sorts. A poorly kept one at this point, sure – tonight’s show is a testament
