LIVE: The Front Bottoms / Gnarwolves / Apologies, I Have None @ The Kentish Town Forum, London

Apologies, I Have None are one of the UK’s under the radar treasures, consistently putting out excellent records and smashing shows without quite breaking through. If the public hasn’t fully caught on yet their fellow artists haven’t been so slow. The Front Bottoms are the latest in a string

LIVE: Metallica @ House of Vans, London

On the day the thrash metal giants release their first album in almost 8 years, we were lucky enough to be part of 600 people in attendance at the most sought after show in London. Nearly 100,000 people have applied to be here tonight, enough to sell out any venue

LIVE: Muncie Girls / Happy Accidents – The Underworld, London

Happy Accidents look just delighted this evening. Frontman Rich Mandell has the ecstatic grin of someone who’s recently undergone a full sad-ectomy and his visible enthusiasm radiates from the Underworld’s stage, infecting the growing crowd. The London trio are apparently certified experts in having, and facilitating, fun. While we

LIVE: The Cure @ Wembley Arena, London

LIVE: Owen @ St Pancras Old Church, London

It’s strange to think that Mike Kinsella has so much to offer one of the oldest sites of Christian worship in dusty old England. Tonight, the first of two insanely intimate performances inside St Pancras Old Church, a building in existence since the start of the 9th Century, promises

LIVE: Biffy Clyro / Brand New @ SSE Hydro, Glasgow

“Home sweet home.” That’s how Biffy’s Simon Neil described the SSE Hydro on a Baltic Tuesday night. Surprisingly, considering they’ve been well and truly adopted by the city (although originally from Kilmarnock), Biffy Clyro have never played the SSE Hydro in Glasgow before. Settling in to the latest venue

LIVE: Jimmy Eat World @ O2 Forum Kentish Town, London

Jimmy Eat World don’t really do bad gigs. Not anymore. Fifteen years of persistent touring since the release of global-breakout record Bleed American has transformed the Arizona quartet into an enviably polished live proposition. Really, your opinion of their shows in 2016 will be informed by two things: sound

LIVE: Architects / Bury Tomorrow @ O2 Academy Brixton, London

Over the course of the summer, the UK metal world suffered a huge shock; Tom Searle, one of the most talented guitarists that the music scene had, passed away after years of battling cancer. When the news was announced, it came as a surprise to some that Architects informed

LIVE: Brain Fallon / Chris Farren @ Kentish Town Forum, London

It’s a miserable autumn evening; it’s been raining for most of the evening, it’s already dark by 4PM, and it’s only halfway through the week. However, within London, New Jersey singer-songwriter Brian Fallon gets ready to treat the capital with his ‘Painkillers’ tour. From what’s caught of his
