Live Gallery: Highly Suspect at the Crowbar, Sydney 24.11.2023
Highly Suspect tore through the night with a ferocity that made every strained chord and throaty howl feel like a primal scream
Live Review: Norman Willmore Sextet – The Blue Lamp, Aberdeen 23.11.2023
Tonight’s gig was very special indeed. Not only because it was set in one of Scotland’s legendary Jazz locations, The Blue Lamp, but because this was only one of two gigs that Norman Willmore’s sextet would perform. Made up of highly acclaimed musicians from around the country, Drummer Corrie Dick and Laura Jurd on Cornett, …
Live Review: Sisters of Mercy @ Manchester Academy 21.11.2023
Photos: Andi Callan It’s always an occasion when the Sisters roll into town, and tonight is no exception. With everyone decked out in their gothic finest, you could cut the anticipation with a knife. They arrive with little fanfare and go straight into a homage of 1990 LP Vision Thing, starting with a mix up …

Live Review: Symposium / A @ Club Academy, Manchester 16/11/2023 – Part 1
It’s agony when you’re waiting on a new spare part to arrive, so you can get your cherished motor back on the highway. So, with a new flux-capacitor from eBay fitted, I cranked the old DeLorean up to 88mph and transported myself to a better time. Around 1996 to be exact, when as a first-year …
Live Review: Hallan / Pack of Animals – The Lanes, Bristol 4.11.2023
Hallan are still finding out who they are and the Portsmouth based 4 piece have upped their game on their latest EP ‘The Noise of a Firing Gun’ with a fuller, more developed sound. The recent subject matter is often anchored in classic literary tradition or historical events in contrast to the social commentary and …
Live Review: Bob Vylan @ O2 Ritz Manchester
The last time Bob Vylan played Manchester, supporting punk supergroup Generation Sex at the Apollo, it’s no exaggeration when I say they polarised the crowd. Bobby found a pocket of old punks who really didn’t care for his politicising, and let him know in no uncertain terms, exactly what they thought. He playfully offered to …
Jet 20 Year Anniversary ‘Get Born’ Tour w/ Pacific Avenue, The Enmore Theatre Sydney, 300923
A little over a month has passed and I’m still pouring through the photo galleries and struggling to pick and choose what to edit out, without taking away from the incredible energy and stage presence felt by a packed Enmore Theatre from both bands. In the meantime, Jet has just been inducted into the ARIA …
