When Kreator come to town, that’s usually a big enough deal on its own. But the line up for the Krushers of the World Tour at the O2 Academy Brixton meant that Rock Sins absolutely had to be there to take in the action. On tonight’s event-type billing there are defined roles for each band…
There’s no award for being the hardest working man in heavy metal. If there was though, we think Zakk Wylde would definitely make the shortlist. Between balancing his roles at the front of both Black Label Society and Zakk Sabbath. As well as filling Dimebag Darrell’s size eleven Chuck Taylors on the road with Pantera….
It’s been over twenty five years since Lamb of God burst onto the scene. Riding high on the the new wave of American heavy metal. Helping define the genre with albums like New American Gospel and Sacrament. They’ve been nothing but consistent since too. And not just when it comes to tearing the roof off…
For 20 years, Motionless In White have had an ungodly flair for love, life, death and calling out the outcast creatures of society and giving them a loving, adoring home. And do you know why they are kings at doing this? Because they feel like that themselves. Their 2010 debut album is even called Creatures,…
The recent resurgence of 00’s culture is a phenomenon worthy of study. For those of us that wore our jeans low and let our wallet cahins hang even lower, the return of Ed Hardy denim and Juicy Couture has many of us whistfully shaking our heads at the youth of today. Especially as it means…
Having risen back to the top of their game and beyond. Lorna Shore haven’t set a foot wrong since To The Hellfire propelled them back into the limelight in 2022. From the phenomenal Pain Remains to last years blistering release, I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me. The band have been going from strength to…
Some tour line ups just catch your eye with their insane stacked billing of bands so much to the point where you are purchasing that gig ticket not just for the headliner. With this said, French metalcore band Resolve are no strangers to bringing the heat when it comes to packing out their tours. Having…
A lot has changed over the last seven years. A global pandemic has come and gone. Regimes have risen and fallen. Viral trends have gripped our attention and then vanished. However, some things have remained constant. Like the rise of Ukrainian progressive metal powerhouses, Jinjer. Who have somehow maintained their stratospheric trajectory. Despite not having…
New Alter Bridge music is always a cause for celebration here at Rock Sins. Having supported the band throughout their time together, it’s always a highlight in the musical calendar to see another new album from Myles Kennedy, Mark Tremonti, Scott Phillips and Brian Marshall. Generally a new Alter Bridge album surfaces every three to…
Anyone who’s been even a semi-regular visitor to Rock Sins over the last few years knows we are big fans of As Everything Unfolds (8). The first UK headline shows in far too long from the Buckinghamshire five piece were announced at the end of the Summer, and happily we were able to get along…
The legendary Roundhouse thrums with electrifying energy as Hot Milk are set to take the stage, ready to make waves! Alongside the support of Silly Goose and Cassyette, Hot Milk always embrace the moment. An infectious exuberant flair encapsulates them and the the audience. The band’s meteoric rise despite only being on their second album…
After spending the 2010s dominating the UK hardcore underground but seeming to slip by the mainstream, Malevolence once seemed like a band who might never get the success they deserve. Which makes nights like this feel so special as they have now climbed to position of headlining Brixton Academy, something that basically no bands from…
