When we launched our annual video of the year contest, we thought it might prove popular as it often does. Two years ago, over 12,000 of you voted to help crown Babymetal our eventual winners of the 2016 video of the year. Last year, it was Youth Killed It who took home the (virtual) winners…
After our last video of the week contest was a landslide for Not Ur Girlfrenz, we end 2018 with the closest contest we have had all year. After battling it out across the week, pop rockers Halflives managed to cling on to victory against Brighton’s metalcore finest Architects by a single vote! Their single Fugitive…
Last time, it was a power pop landslide from Texas as young newcomers Not Ur Girlfrenz steamrollered their way to victory with their latest single No One Asked You Anyway. Now we have five more bands who will fight it out in our last video of the week for the year, before we attempt the…
It’s a landslide! Our latest video of the week contest only really had one band in it from the word go. After a brief flurry from Japanese dance-metalcore favourites Crossfaith, three young ladies from Texas streaked away with the victory. That’s right, this weeks’ winners are Not Ur Girlfrenz, who took a whopping 74% of…

They’ve just announced details of their debut album called Penumbra, with the album set to be released on the 18th of January through Armalyte Industries. To accompany…
So, it’s time for another video of the week. Five bands battling it out to take over from winners from last time out Strange Planes. Aside from Crossfaith (always favourites of ours here), it’s a field of newcomers, so this could be a very interesting vote indeed. Onto the bands! Feeling like a firm rewind…
Our last video of the week contest turned out to be rather one sided. Farnborough rockers Delayed Departure saw off a brief challenge from Danish prog masters VOLA to take home the winners medal with their latest video for Neon Lights. Taking in 70% of all the votes, they left the rest of the competiiton,…
Bitch Hawk are a very interesting band we have recently come across. Comprised of four very unique individuals including an internationally respected jazz musician and the co-writer of Icona Pop’s I Love It (I Don’t Care) – this is not the recipe one would expect to be playing speed metal at the extreme end of…
US rockers Darker Days are a fairly newly formed group as they will tell you themselves below. With a new EP out in a few weeks time, it was the perfect opportunity to get to know them a little bit. Darker Days, over to you: Welcome! Please introduce yourselves to our readers: We are Darker…
