LIVE: Gaffa Tape Sandy / Beach Riot / Gnarlah @ Komedia, Brighton

On a dreary Monday night, where the rain falls incessantly and everyone is rightly cautious about an impending pandemic, expectations are low at Brighton’s Komedia – a venue that’s usually used for comedy nights and unconventional club nights. They shouldn’t be. Adopted hometown heroes Gaffa Tape Sandy are top

LIVE: The Maine @ O2 Forum, Kentish Town

It’s been a little under a year since The Maine were last at the O2 Forum Kentish Town kicking off their ‘You Are OK’ album cycle, and tonight we’re back in that very same venue to celebrate the closing night of the European tour. So much has

LIVE: Beartooth / The Amity Affliction / Higher Power @ Academy 1, Manchester

If you were to suggest that many bands have had a bigger few years than Beartooth since the release of third album ‘Disease’, we’d struggle to believe you. Not that they were in any way a small band before this – Caleb Shomo has been a well known part

LIVE: GroundCulture / Black Coast / Starved / Cut Short @ Satan’s Hollow, Manchester

Manchester, like most major cities, has its fair share of venues scattered across the city, with many doubling as pubs, clubs, cafes, and student unions. None, though, have quite the same impact as Satan’s Hollow; there’s a reason so many bands make reference to it on later tours, helped

LIVE: City And Colour @ The Palladium, London

It’s not often that we’re treated to a gig in London’s famous ‘Theatreland’ but, after Madonna’s recent residency, City And Colour are playing their second night on the bounce here at the Palladium in Soho. It still feels like we’re here to watch a play, though, with red coated

LIVE: Nathan Gray @ The Courtyard Theatre, London

The Grade II listed Courtyard Theatre is an unassuming redbrick venue, a stone’s throw from the bustling nightlife of Shoreditch. Tucked downstairs, small groups of fans are milling around in the cosy bar area, waiting for the doors to the studio space to open. Once they do, everyone makes

LIVE: All Time Low / Venus @ Brudenell Social Club, Leeds

If you were to say that you were off to see All Time Low, the last place you’d expect to find yourself these days is outside a small, pub-like building on the outskirts of Leeds. And yet, here we are. True to Northern form, there’s been snow for much

LIVE: PVRIS @ Electric Brixton

In the wake of Storm Dennis, London is cold and bleak. But step inside Electric Brixton and there’s a warm energy; pink-haired girls purchasing pints of red wine at the bar, groups chatting on the sofas inside the women’s bathroom and ‘indietronica’ support act Joywave finishing off

LIVE: Counterparts / Can’t Swim / Chamber @ Waterfront Studio, Norwich

It’s an unfortunate occasion when support slots are filled by exceptional bands, and yet are somehow met with a lacklustre response from the audience. Tonight, despite incredible talent from all three support acts, this defines the evening until the headliners, Counterparts, take to the stage.  Tonight,

LIVE: Loathe / Phoxjaw / God Complex @ Omeara, London

If you were one of the lucky people that managed to snag a ticket to Loathe’s London demonstration, you’re already aware of just how lucky you were to witness what you witnessed. Highly tipped as being one of metalcores next big acts, the hype surrounding their live
