LIVE: Citizen / Turnover / Sorority Noise @ The Underworld, London

Given the immense amount of love and attention we show the American emo scene over here, shows for bands on the Run For Cover and Big Scary Monsters labels manage to sell out quickly. While each group has enjoyed individual success from numerous returns to the UK, tonight unites

LIVE: Descendents / Abrasive Wheels @ O2 Forum Kentish Town, London

They’re the proud, and they may indeed be the few, but Descendents are far from being alone tonight. The godfathers of pop punk and hardcore capitalized on their nerdy aesthetic early on their career, which has proven to be globally influential. Last time they come to London in 2011,

LIVE: Employed To Serve / We Never Learned To Live / Conjurer / Eulogy @ Old Blue Last, London

It’s almost been five years since Employed To Serve formed, and have subsequently earned their place as one of the heaviest, and hardest working bands in the UK. While hardcore is probably the easiest blanket term to define ETS, shows put on by bands on Holy Roar are now

LIVE: Soft Kill @ Thousand Island, London

Towards the back end of last year, Soft Kill unveiled their latest album, ‘Choke’. It caught many off guard, coming in as a late entry to many Albums of the Year lists thanks to the suffocating beauty of the record that the title suggests. Little over five months later,

LIVE: Ghost Bath / Deadwound @ The Sebright Arms, London

Black metal is far different now to what it was some thirty years ago, leading to bands garnering as much hate as they do praise. Ghost Bath seem to be one of the most divisive bands in the current scope of metal, but you wouldn’t know it by the
