To Kill Achilles – ‘Something To Remember Me By’

Dundee’s To Kill Achilles have never been afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves and they’re about to make that clearer than ever with new record ‘Something To Remember Me By’ A concept record of sorts, ’Something To Remember Me By’ is incredibly honest and poignant, striking a chord

Cult Of Luna – ‘The Raging River’

If you’re at all familiar with the post-metal genre, Cult Of Luna will need no introduction – since their inception in 1998, the experimental Swedish collective have pushed the boundaries of expansive, overwhelming heavy music. From seminal releases like 2004’s ‘Salvation’ and its successor ‘Somewhere Along The Highway’, to

Cheap Meat – ‘People Are The Worst’

On the surface, Cheap Meat don’t take themselves completely seriously. Their debut outing, 2016’s ‘The Parts That Show’ EP, contained plenty of hook-filled moments that were reminiscent of Weezer, with lyrical cliches throughout.

Crazy Arm – Dark Hands, Thunderbolts

Crazy Arm’s fourth long player ‘Dark Hands, Thunderbolts’ arrives after four long years in the making. Less hot on the heels and more cold on the calves of 2013’s ‘The Southern Wild’, the fourteen track album has been a true labour of love for the Devon outfit-cum-collective, who

The Sonder Bombs – ‘Clothbound’

The ukulele has a reputation problem. Hear the name and you can’t help but think of George Formby or the endless cascade of YouTube creators murdering your favourite songs with pinky-plonky cover versions. The Sonder Bombs are here to change that; armed with one of these four-stringers and a

INTERVIEW: Lonely the Brave

Just minutes into our call with Jack Bennett and Mark Trotter of Lonely the Brave, the topic of conversation has changed at least four times – and as we delve into the last two years of the band’s history, it’s looking like it’s going to take some unexpected twists

INTERVIEW: Cancer Bats

When penning the lyrics to the future Cancer Bats anthem ‘Deathsmarch’ in the spring of 2008, that he’d be still talking about the song’s impact over 12 years later wasn’t really in the forefront of Liam Cormier’s mind. Revisiting this song in the middle of a somewhat neverending pandemic,
