After a thankfully brief period where it seems like the pop punk genre has been populated by lesser bands hitting the charts with a more pop focused version of the genre, it’s bands like WSTR (from Liverpool, UK) that can get things back on track to what it actually means to be successfully classed as …

Elyne, a Post-Hardcore band from Ravenna, Italy embarked on a UK tour (well, three out of four did) touring with To Kill Achilles and Scream Blue Murder but even with only three of the band, they gave their all and gave the crowd exactly what they needed to hear. In between songs, frontman Danny (who was …

After being quiet from the scene for a fair while, Julia Sheer has returned with a new EP on the horizon and a brilliant single to showcase her talents and what to expect with the upcoming release. The opening of ‘Takes One To Know One’ instantly sets the tone for a single that is emotionally …

One of the things I’m constantly amazed by is how music can become a tool for transformation. A tool for coming to terms with inner emotions and that it has the power to change an outlook. The latest release from Alex G is one that has an incredible concept to it. Taking personal and individual …

At this point it’s an easy thing to take the internet and the availability of music for granted which has increased over the years but one of the aspects I still love is that I’m able to watch a live show in New York whilst I’m sat on my sofa in Sheffield via a livestream. Specifically that …

With a lot of releases in recent years, the term throwback has almost become meaningless. It’s a term that has become overused and as more and more modern releases seemingly take more than inspiration from certain styles, it’s got to the point where they’re missing what made these styles great in the first place.
