Liam Gallagher is a musical icon. One time frontman of one of the most iconic bands to ever come from the UK, and now a very successful solo artist in his own right. While Liam would have you believe that he is an ok songwriter at best, his ear for a melody is uncanny and…
So let me get this straight – this month has seen a tour with Static-X & Soil, Logan Mader in Machine (fucking) Head, new albums from Cold, Korn and now Puddle of Mudd have released Welcome to Galvania and it’s 2019??? Are you sure?? Whatever the year it’s an exciting time to be fan of…
Released on Friday 13th it perhaps should come as no surprise that Korn’s 13th album The Nothing is the darkest of their long and storied career. Penned in the aftermath of the death of frontman Jonathan Davis’ wife Deven last August, The Nothing is more than an album, it’s part of the grieving process. At…
Chelsea Wolfe is a transcendent artist. She creates a truly spiritual, almost religious experience through music. Taking the listener on a journey that they won’t soon forget. Birth of Violence is the follow up to the hugely successful Hiss Spun,Chelsea once again takes her artistry on a completely different path, and a very dark on…

Not that there was a great deal of punk to begin with, this transition into an even more radio friendly unit shifter has been aided by the assistance of Grammy nominated producer and collaborator, Zakk…
Killswitch Engage have had an interesting time of it in recent years. Firmly well-established with original singer Jesse Leach, since the release of their last album Incarnate they’ve become something of the support band of choice – at least when it comes to the UK. They’ve supported Bullet For My Valentine, Iron Maiden and most…
