“30 bloody years! Who would’ve thought it, eh? As we were well renowned for our, ahem, lifestyle choices, shall we say, I remember Melody Maker ran an office pool betting which member of The Mission would die first!” But survive they did – and they brought quite a few of us along with them, picked …

When Irish three-piece Slow Riot released their EP ‘Cathedral’ (see HERE for our feature) they quite easily became one of our favourite new bands. Taking a heavy influence from the best post-punk has had to offer (Gang of Four, Wire, God Speed You Black Emperor to name but a few) and giving it their own …

It’s thirty five years since Tainted Love hit the number one spot across the globe, and in doing so launched the illustrious career of tonight’s star, Marc Almond. Tonight is a celebration of that career and we’ve been promised a personal set of his own favourites. The concert opens with the Leeds College of Music Contemporary …

I say happening because the Brian Jonestown Massacre are far from just another band, and with the promise of a three hour set, its fair to say, …

Long Division 2016 launched itself into the weekend with post-punk outfit Gang of Four. For some reason they’ve been crammed into the smaller hall at Unity Works which makes for a sweaty, intimate start to the weekends shenanigans. As is tradition from previous years, the support for the evening comes from an up and coming local …
