You know they say that some covers bands ‘sound better than the original’?  I once saw ‘Dirty DC’ playing in Brighton.  An AC/DC covers band. 

Mason Hill are back with one hell of a bang on "Remember" their latest single. I cannot believe it has been five years since the release of the amazing Against the Wall and as the band were starting to explode out of Glasgow it all went quiet as lead singer Scott Taylor left and the fans were all in limbo.

Core members of Blues rock outfit, Nitroville – Tola Lamont, Kurt Micheal and Grizzy Rose have a new folk flavoured side project called Coastland Fair. Their inspiration comes from the British Isles coast and seas and hence the band name.

Review by Phil Rozier for MPM Florence Black have absolutely nailed it with their latest single, Coloured In. I’ve been following these guys since they supported Massive Wagons (what a night that was), and then again at Maid of Stone Festival this year, where they tore up the stage with that thunderous energy and tight musicianship. So when I saw …

For their legions of Brave Rival fans, the departure of joint lead singer Chloe Josephine late last year was a worrying time as many questioned what would happen moving forward, the chemistry between the quintet being so special.

It takes a huge amount of courage to take on a System of a Down fan favourite but Lolli Wren, AKA The Fairy Voicemother on YouTube, takes on the challenge and puts a stunning new spin on it.

Music reviews often come with some sort of pre amble, a kind of scene setting if you will.  Whether for effect, reader engagement or pure self-indulgence from the writer, there are many reasons that reviews are perhaps stretched out, watered down, elaborated or elongated. 

In another life, I learnt a bit about business.  Business contains a load of key parts, all essential, and all equally as important as the next.  A business can not survive without sales, people, finance systems, processes and procedures.  

Everyone has their own personal taste in music right? And if you’re like me, you sometimes let that taste determine what you think you like, and what you think you don’t like quite so much.

Fast becoming one of the most fascinating and vital bands on the circuit, For The Forsaken have brought a genuine raw emotion and power to the scene.

Showing that grassroots bands are better doing things the hard way, Hedra have been one of the most ferocious acts out there, building up a reputation through consistent touring rather than focusing on whacky and staged TikTok videos to gain likes.

After three decades at the cutting edge of blues-rock, Joe Bonamassa tears down the walls once again with “Breakthrough” yet another testament to his grit, soul, and the relentless pursuit of something greater.

Sweden has always been a cool country, the home of ABBA and Ikea, it's produced more than its fair share of great bands with Ghost, Opeth, The Hives, Sabaton, Evergrey and Royal Republic amongst many others flying the flag.

There’s something undeniably rebellious about Parker Barrow, even before you’ve heard a note of ‘Make It’, their latest single. Named after the infamous criminal duo Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, the bank robbing couple who plied their trade during the 1930’s Great Depression across the pond.

Easter Friday’s.   They’re always pretty bland for me personally.  Granted, it’s a day off the day job, and being suitably unimaginative, I filled my day with the mundane and overdue.
