Parkway Drive are a band who’s profile has been slowly rising in the UK in recent years. They may be arena headliners at home in Australia but have remained a much smaller draw in Europe for the last few years. However, constant hard work touring on these shores with bands such as Bring Me The…
Gojira are one of the hottest properties in metal worldwide right now. Having been brilliant but flying slightly under the radar of many for a number of years new album L’enfant Sauvage (their first for Roadrunner Records) has brought them a lot of attention and a lot of new fans. They are in the mist…
Landscapes and Hildamay are both on the verge of massive success, so a co-headline gig with the two of them was always going to be something special, right? Hildamay [9] are about to drop their new album Miles Away, so they use tonight as a chance to see how the new material goes down live….
One of the most anticipated tours of 2012 hits the Garage in Glasgow. Opening this tour are the fantastic Polar [9]. Treating Glasgow to tracks from their amazing 2012 album Iron Lungs, as well as their EP This Polar Noise. Their brand of heavy-as-fuck hardcore gets the majority of the crowd moving, and vocalist Adam…

The Rise Records tour, featuring Secrets, Memphis May Fire and Of Mice & Men, makes its way to Glasgow. The first band to take the stage are Secrets [5], and to be brutally honest, they aren’t very good. Repetitive riffs, boring songs, and two poor vocalists, this band aren’t impressive at all. However the majority of the crowd seems…
Take a sold out Islington Academy with a loud lively crowd on a Friday night in London and you have all the necessary ingredients for a superb show. Add a band who have become one of the breakout stars in the rock world of 2012 and those in attendance were pretty much guaranteed a fantastic…
Boysetsfire are a band, that, at least in the UK seem to have travelled largely under the radar. Their reunion for a farewell tour last year was woefully under promoted, being discovered by this writer by pure accident. A great accident as it happens as it was one of the best gigs I have attended…
Regular visitors to Rocksins are probably well aware of the fact that we’re huge supporters and fans of Fozzy, and have had the pleasure of the guys company on numerous occasions. So we figured there was no better band to run a picture special for than the “huge rock stars”. Please see below for a…
