Volbeat have grown themselves to be one of the biggest rock acts in Europe, a fact that still stuns many if they’re not particularly familiar with the Danish / US quartet. “HOW MANY?!” is often the reaction when people find out they can sell out an almost 50,000 capacity venue in their Danish homeland. Their…
Mushroomhead aren’t known for their extensive UK tours, so when they stopped off in Southampton we made sure to collar them for a chat about what they’ve been doing lately, copying The Blue Man Group, Working at Abbey Road Studios, what it’s like being a creative band with an ever changing image and how they…
The world of Halestorm is a pretty great place right now. Having witnessed their rather triumphant Zippo Stage headline set on the Saturday of Download 2019, we were very pleased to be able to catch up with Halestorm guitarist Joe Hottinger the next day to discuss their Download performance, forthcoming tours, the ten year anniversary…
The Bentham brothers, Bobby, Jack and Will, alongside lifelong friend Stuart Newburn – aka Strange Bones – hail from Blackpool, the city that time forgot. Coming from a town that it is fair to say is no longer in its glory days, you would expect the kind of gnarly, aggressive punk that the quartet deliver…
As the evening sun set on Download 2019 for the final (and first) time this weekend, Rock Sins caught up with bright young things Heart of a Coward, for a sit down chat about new album The Disconnect, gigging, festivals and adjusting to new personnel.

In their near 20-year history as a band The Dollyrots have become a by-word for all that is good and right in the world of Pop-Punk. Their brand of sunny, upbeat anthems have been a huge hit with audiences all over the globe, year after year, album after album. Their legacy is firmly intact and…
2019 is a huge year in the world of Sabaton. The band’s 20th anniversary sees their star shining brighter than the shiniest of polished military medals. They saved the day at Hellfest with the now infamous Manowar cancellation incident, will be headlining Bloodstock Open Air Festival in the UK next month, and have just released…
With the new Slipknot album now just three weeks away from release, they’ve only gone and dropped another new track. Titled Solway Firth, this is the second single to surface from Slipknot’s upcoming album We Are Not Your Kind.

The members of Outside The 9 received the following image: Given that “Slipknot 2020” was flashing up on the big screens at Download, we’re willing to wager this is coming our way next year. For those of you who…
