Just one year on from their first UK number 1 with For Those That Wish To Exist (FTTWTE), ARCHITECTS have returned with their 10th studio album. The Classic Symptoms Of A Broken Spirit continues their trajectory towards the biggest stages possible (and their affinity for long album titles) whilst simultaneously learning from their previous effort…
Change and diversity in art is natural and essential. You cannot evolve if you are content with repeating yourself. It’s worth bearing this in mind when we look at our favourite artists. We love the things we love for many different reasons. It is however unreasonable to expect the people who create the things we…
Architects new album For Those That Wish To Exist is arguably the first truly “big” album of 2021 to come from a well established metal band. It is certainly one of the most eagerly awaited albums of the year in the world of heavy music, and perhaps one of the ones that a lot of…
Already one of our most eagerly awaited albums of 2021, Architects have just ratcheted excitement levels up another level with the release of a new single. Their brand new track, Dead Butterflies (first heard on their magnificent live streamed show from the Royal Albert Hall back in November) dropped this morning for all to enjoy….
Following up an album like Stage Four was never going to be an easy task for Touche Amore. A deeply personal album that managed to capture the pain vocalist Jeremy Bolm went through after such a huge loss in an unflinching way. It’s the sort of album a band would never be able to replicate…
When we talk about comeback stories, few are as inspiring as the story of The Ghost Inside. Their horrific bus crash from 2015 has been well documented and left the band sidelined until their live comeback last year. Given the injuries they suffered being able to play again seemed nothing short of a miracle. Now…
Self styled and described as dance punk, Remo Drive’s latest album, Natural, Everyday Degradation sets out it stall as it means to go on: Two Bux is a bittersweet song that is as heavy on the danceable elements as it is on the melancholy. It has a hook you can sing a long to by…
Architects have returned with news of their eighth studio album, ‘Holy Hell’, plus details of a massive 2019 UK and European tour. The British band will release the follow up to 2016’s ‘All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us’ on November 9 through Epitaph Records, with huge shows across the UK and Europe set to follow…
5 years is a long time, but for Alkaline Trio fans it must have seemed like an eternity. This is the longest the band has gone between albums and I’m sure many fans were starting to wonder if they were ever going to get a new album, but here we are, the Alkaline Trio is…
Ska-punk is a genre that many people will tell you is dead. With the genre far from the height of popularity it once had, it’s now just seen as a nostalgia thing. So when The Interrupters released their second album Say It Out Loud in 2016 it felt like a real breath of fresh air….
Parkway Drive have always been a cut above everyone else, that isn’t even up for discussion it’s just a fact. With every release, they get stronger and better, constantly evolving and remaining one step ahead of everyone else. It should come as no surprise to anyone then that their newest album Reverence is without question…
Falling in Reverse understand the vacuous emptiness of growing up. They’ve faced emotional hardship the same as everyone else with only music to hold their hand. ‘Coming Home’ is an outstretched palm of support ready to take fraught souls away from the planet. Purveyors of unapologetic anthems, the title track’s inter-planetary contagion bears the signature…
