Ahhhh, Download middle Saturday. The time when everyone is nicely settled in. Middle Saturday at Download 2025 has a very eclectic feeling. In fact, we put it to Download’s Senior Promoter Kamran Haq that it just might be the most eclectic main stage line up a day at the festival has ever had! Following on…

In a somewhat shocking turn of events earlier this week, Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes have announced via social media they’re taking a break after their current UK/EU tour following a nine year musical career as one of the most iconic names in British punk rock. During their near decade at the forefront of the…
A Night with some of the Sex Pistols: Punk’s Enduring Legacy Saturday night erupted with energy as The Molotovs and the legendary Frank Carter took the stage alongside Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols.

Neck Deep, much like SUM 41 or Blink-182, embodies the vibe of a teenager in baggy clothes skateboarding. Thousands of metalheads were transported back to the early 2000s, seeing themselves, acne and all, listening to pop punk. Singer Ben Barlow performed nine high-energy songs to the delight of the crowd-surfers. The accessibility of their music made this concert…
With barely a week’s notice, it was announced that Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes were to hold 3 intimate evenings of acoustic shows exclusively for Snakepit members, in Manchester, Edinburgh and Brighton. For the uninitiated, the Snakepit is a very closely knit, almost cult-like community, made up of the most dedicated Rattlesnakes fans. It was…

After a late night on Friday at Leeds Festival’s home of Bramham Park, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes (8.5/10) are a much needed shot of early morning adrenaline. They get off to a slightly rocky start, with the wind all but washing away the first half of opening track, My Town. Not that it seems…
Kicking off her UK tour in London at Camden’s Underworld tonight, Cassyette has released her brand new single, Mayhem, via her own independent label Devil Land. The explosive, punk-inspired, heartbreak track, follows her previous release Behind Closed Doors with Kid Brunswick, which was premiered on BBC Radio 1 last year. 2021 saw Cassyette make her…
This year’s secret set at Reading and Leeds Festival was the legendary Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes – a band who are no strangers to the stage (or the crowd, or the middle of any venue they play in matter of fact). Photographer Stuart Garneys caught their return to the festival at the Reading’s Richfield…
There were tears, cheers and plenty of beers flowing at what will be known as Download Festival’s historic pilot event, which took place 18th-20th June, with a reduced capacity of 10,000 fans and just two stages. When the Download Pilot was announced we couldn’t quite believe it; live music was making a return with a…
Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes performed at Brixton Academy the other weekend and nobody showed up….or so the Daily Mail would probably have you believe if Frank Carter had tried to feed some hungry children. No, the performance in the empty room at Brixton Academy is a result of a band making the best of…
