LIVE: Hundred Reasons @ The Royal Albert Hall, London

If you’re going to retire as a band after two and a half decades, you may as well do it in style. When Hundred Reasons announced a Royal Albert Hall spectacular last summer, we had no idea that it would be their last- that news would come eight weeks

LIVE: Incubus @ The O2 Arena

While Incubus’ ‘Morning View’ might have been overshadowed by some of 2001’s more iconic releases, it stands as a snapshot of a moment in time for both the band and us. It’s also an album that fundamentally deserves a renaissance, and it seems that time has finally come. After

LIVE: Ghost @ the O2, London

Like so much about Ghost, tonight is shrouded in mystery. With the band’s experimental phone ban meaning that no details about the shows could be shared online, and a dark silken shroud covering the stage, a rare element of total surprise about what Papa V Perpetua and his Nameless

LIVE: DITZ, Knives, Staff Party @ Chalk, Brighton

Since their sophomore album, ‘Never Exhale’, released at the end of January, Brighton noise rockers DITZ have been touring non-stop. DITZ themselves describe the record as “the sound of a band that hasn’t stopped for a breath”. Tonight marks the end of the first leg of a UK/EU

LIVE: Bloodywood @ O2 Forum Kentish Town

“There’s fuck all seats,” screams a redhead from across the bar, “it’s divide and conquer to even get in!” She’s spot on. There’s sold out shows, and then there’s the final date of Bloodywood’s spectacularly successful European run. The Forum has opened up areas previously unseen to cram in

LIVE: Knocked Loose / Basement / Harm’s Way / Pest Control @ O2 Academy Brixton

If ever there was a way to get fans excited for your biggest UK show to date, Knocked Loose announcing a surprise gig taking place three days beforehand was one way to do it! 500 lucky souls got to pack out a sweaty Underworld to join the Kentucky hardcore

LIVE: Touché Amoré @ Electric Ballroom, London

We might call Touché Amoré ‘hardcore’, but that’s only because a better word for their sound hasn’t been coined yet. They’ve only been in the UK for a week as part of one of their brief and sporadic appearances outside the US, and while seeing them headline is enough

LIVE: Green Lung / Unto Others @ O2 Forum Kentish Town

Nearly eight years on from their first ever gig at The Black Heart, London cult heroes Green Lung have turned the beloved Camden institution into a shrine for all things occult ahead of their biggest hometown show to date. From the “Goaty Boutique” pop-up shop with a queue stretching

LIVE: Spiritbox / Periphery / Stray From The Path @ Alexandra Palace, London

For one night only, Spiritbox are gracing the UK with their presence. We all knew they’d be back after their slot supporting Korn last year, but selling out the ten thousand strong Alexandra Palace is a whole different ball game for the Canadians. It’s all part of their quiet

LIVE: Better Lovers / Frontierer / Greyhaven @ Electric Brixton, London

It’s Saturday night in Brixton and it’s as cold as the Arctic in the streets, but if you’re one of the lucky folks with a ticket to tonight’s shenanigans at Electric Brixton then you’ll find warmth and a whole lot more waiting for you inside. Fans pile into the
