LIVE: ZOAX / Dead! / Press To Meco @ Barfly, London

In London’s Camden Barfly, this particular warm Monday evening has generated quite a buzz. Both the headliners and main support have been drawing attention over the last few months, with each promising a spectacle to behold. Press To Meco fight through some frustrating technical issues (“this corner must be

LIVE: Sleeping With Sirens / Pierce The Veil / Issues @ The Forum, London

For a band to accomplish a ‘world tour’ in this day and age is really something of an achievement, as such travels are usually left to the popstars. But, having dominated their home in the US and Europe, now it was time for Sleeping With Sirens and Pierce

LIVE: Modern Life Is War / Birds In Row / Terrible Feelings / Swan Song @ The Underworld, London

There are very few hardcore punk bands that have a connection to their fans like Modern Life Is War. The closest comparison would maybe be the adoration for American Nightmare, but Modern Life Is War are still in a league of their own when it comes to having

LIVE: Blitz Kids @ Boston Music Rooms, London

It’s difficult to believe that it’s been well over a year since Blitz Kids’ album ‘The Good Youth’ was released and in the time since its release they’ve travelled around the UK and Europe, as well as a recent stint in the US for SXSW. Now, as they

LIVE: Four Year Strong / Hit The Lights / Forever Came Calling / Light You Up @ Electric Ballroom, London

There’s a distinctive buzz enveloping Camden’s Electric Ballroom early on tonight, as the Pure Noise Records backdrop dominates the seductively lit stage. The return to UK shores of heavy pop-punk powerhouse Four Year Strong alone is enough to push excitement to fever pitch, yet their surprisingly varied array

LIVE: Lagwagon, The Flatliners @ Islington Academy, London

All too often these days veteran punk bands get a bad rap for their output of material and efforts to stay relevant (eyes squarely at The Offspring right now). Some of these bands have simply not been able to stay relevant as a new generation of punks

LIVE: Chuck Ragan / Skinny Lister / Tim Vantol @ The Scala, London

The worlds of punk rock and folk have been crossing paths for many years, and more often than not share very similar traits. There are just as many punk songs about love, life, and protesting against the norm as there are folk songs, and both genres possess a

LIVE: Real Friends / Brawlers / Trash Boat @ Underworld, London

Real Friends, who are stopping off for a run of headline shows in-amongst their arena filled tour with All Time Low, are easily the biggest pull tonight. Having sold out the London date not too longer after announcing it, it’s immediately evident that the majority of tonight’s crowd
