The latest in a long line of skyscraping blasts to the stratosphere, ‘The Noise In My Head’ is a melodically jammed wonder that brings their muscular hard rock into …
The Five Hundred are one of my favourite metalcore bands and are, without question, slaughtering. Nottingham based since 2014, their energy and movement within the scene is solidly stamped, their sound is huge and all with a massive flawless production behind everything they do.
Danish titans Volbeat are back and they’re bringing the summer well and truly with them. This gift of a brace of new songs is just what we needed, both shot full of sunshine and an untouchable joy of life that’s as infectious as anything they’ve ever released before.

The world of rock n’ roll is more than familiar with the bass rock God, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden, the love of my life for over 30 years. For those of you living under a rock, Harris has a side project in the form of heavy rock band, ‘British Lion’, since 2012.
Alternative punk rock band Voodoo Bloo release their second UK single ‘MMA’ on 14th May via PlasticGroove Records.

U.S. rockers UPON WINGS have released a new single ‘Eternal Way’ featuring the fabulous Ralf Scheepers.
I hadn’t heard anything from this band before being asked to review this single but found myself trawling their YouTube to get a real flavour of the band and really appreciating their music as I did.
Oh, this is good. This is really good. Huge, dirty and full of attitude, 'Waiting For Your Love' is a roaring flame that brings a turbocharged jolt to modern blues.
Manchester based rock act Twisted Illusion and their erstwhile frontman Matt Jones are not a band that could ever be described as resting on their laurels.
The hardworking group, who have been in existence since 2014 recently won Classic Rock magazines “Track of the Week” with their last single ‘Hatred Is A Virtue’ and almost before all the plaudits have stopped flowing in, they are back with another single, the near 7 minute epic ‘Imitate Me Part 1’.

I am going to start this review by giving you a piece of advice and a prediction together and that is, remember the name Ethyrfield as on the back of this one single that I have heard, I firmly believe these three incredibly talented young musicians are going to be massive.
The good times are back and Roxville want you to celebrate like it’s 1987. A storming track from their freshly minted ‘Fallen From Grace’ album, this sounds like Def Leppard and Skid Row had a lovechild and fed it on a diet of beer and energy drinks, full of youthful energy and a barely contained passion for life.
For me, Jizzy Pearl definitely falls into the category of being a musical icon, a legend if you like and whenever I am aware that he has new music appearing it wakens something inside my body that raises my excitement levels very quickly.
