by Kev Kharas

Los Angeles' HEALTH are incredible tonight, somehow even tighter than they were when they visited the UK last year, and with their giant of a drummer demonstrating just how valuable an asset he is to this music…

by Billy Hamilton

There may have been jack-shit here to witness this staggering showing but as the lights go up and the ‘crowd’ disperses there’s absolutely no denying it: tonight, The Ruby Suns were absolutely awesome…

by Shain Shapiro

I love The Brunettes, but right now they are overwhelmed. By the venue, perhaps, or their early support slot and its restrictive 30-minute duration. Whatever - point is they disappoint when they should excell…

by Dom Gourlay

Ignore the detractors who accuse them of sounding too close to some of their influences for comfort, as Exit Calm are far out in front of the rest of the competition. You can certainly imagine bands forming in their wake…
