LIVE: Jamie Lenman: Separation Event

2020’s ‘King of Clubs’ was a new milestone for Surrey-born illustrator and ex-Reuben front man, Jamie Lenman.

Fangs Out – ‘Pretty Bleak’

You know how the story goes. After releasing their blistering debut EP ‘Curse Words’ in 2020, Fangs Out planned to hit the road and cause some mayhem – but with a global pandemic-sized spanner in the works, plans changed. Frustrated, locked-down and fed up, the band retreated to the

LIVE: The Devil Wears Prada – Undead Stream

It’s 10pm in the UK on a Saturday night, it’s pitch black outside and all you can hear are the sounds of the pouring rain and TV static. This could mean two things; it’s either a typical night in the UK and the weather is messing with your

Our Hollow, Our Home – ‘Burn in the Flood’

LIVE: Twenty One Pilots – Livestream Experience

It’s 1am in the UK, but for those who can resist the pull of slumber, time is irrelevant when it comes to kicking off a new era of Twenty One Pilots. Today has been ‘Scaled and Icy’ release day, and given we’ve been waiting weeks to celebrate

Hot Mulligan – ‘I Won’t Reach Out to You’

If you’re part of the pop-punk and emo circle, then you’ll be well aware of Hot Mulligan. The Lansing, Michigan group have gradually gained a strong following thanks to two stellar full-lengths in ‘Pilot’ (2018) and ‘You’ll Be Fine’ (2020). Both records were delivered with a sense of

Prey Drive – ‘Neon God’

Working hard to make a name for themselves with a busy touring schedule and 2018’s impressive debut album ‘Once More With Feeling’, Prey Drive are a promising prospect, to say the least. With that debut accumulating over 350,000 spins on Spotify alone, their potential hasn’t been ignored.
