Over the course of three stellar albums The Bronx have positioned themselves as the go to guys for the Punk purists pursuit of danger, unpredictability and raw, scathing noise. With such a compelling back catalogue it could be argued that if any modern Punk band deserve a shot at wider mainstream acceptance and approval then…
If you aren’t familiar with Neurosis in any way then take this as a warning as much as a recommendation, Neurosis are heavy. Heavy in every possible way conceivable.

It’s very rare that a band reform and immediately make the best work…

One of those bands is UK/Canadian “supergroup” AxeWound, who are made up of members of bands as well known as Bullet For My Valentine (Matt…
A couple of days ago, we posted a video interview that took place at The Vans Warped Tour UK at Alexandra Palace last month with Bowling For Soup’s singer Jaret Reddick (view that here if you wish). That was so popular with our readers we’ve decided to put up another one, this time featuring Burt…
