LIVE: Ghost / Dead Soul @ KOKO, London

The use of theatrics in the world rock and metal is nothing new. For years, bands have relied on elaborate stage shows to bolster their live show, adding more entertainment value for money. However, there are some cases where it becomes style over substance, and can detract from the

LIVE: Red House Glory / Bellevue Days @ The Islington, London

The British music scene is more alive than ever right now; amongst some questionable acts, there are some truly fantastic bands out there. Two such groups that are doing some great things are Bellevue Days and Red House Glory. Supporting Red House Glory at their EP launch show, Croydon’s

LIVE: Slaves / The Skints @ Brixton Academy, London

The rise and rise of Slaves is just utterly ridiculous. From opening festivals and consistently playing the Barfly, to headlining huge venues and selling them out, Brixton Academy is Slaves’ playground for the night and they make their performance count. The Skints have the task of warming up the

LIVE: Don Broco @ Tramshed, Cardiff

Tonight sees Don Broco kick off their UK tour at Cardiff’s newest venue, Tramshed. This tour will culminate in a sold out show at the legendary Brixton Academy, so it’s safe to say the band are pretty pumped on this tour (and life in general) right now. Opening the show

LIVE: Deaf Havana / The Xcerts / Twin Wild @ Islington Assembly Hall, London

It seems like it’s been a long time since Deaf Havana have last toured, but they’ve had good reason for locking themselves away. They’re busy writing their next record, the one to follow the wonderful ‘Old Souls’ release, but have finally stepped foot outside of the studio to bring new

LIVE: Lonely the Brave / Black Peaks @ The Haunt, Brighton

Black Peaks are turning a lot of heads at the moment, none more so than Easy Life Records, who recently signed the Brighton quartet. Unsurprisingly the room was filled out for the band, what with this being their hometown show on the tour. Their ambitious and feisty sound annihilates

LIVE: Chelsea Wolfe / A Dead Forest Index @ Islington Assembly Hall, London

There are very few artists in this world like Chelsea Wolfe. Her music is bleak and stirring, sometimes leading you to feel uneasy. On the flip side of that, it is also quite beautiful, and even comforting when it wants to be. It is fitting that on a miserable,

LIVE: Damnation Festival 2015 @ Leeds University Union

For a decade now, Damnation Festival has been pulling in all manner of denim-jacketed heathens from around the world to witness the finest extreme music experience our fair isle has to offer. The festival organisers’ ability to pull together jaw dropping lineups has been almost unmatched since the first
