Photographer Matt Higgs documented the weekend and you can check out our photo highlights in the live photo gallery below – enjoy! Hear about our…
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…
Today Reading and Leeds Festival has announced over 77 new acts to its line-up for this year. Joining headliners Rage Against The Machine and Bring Me The Horizon, plus the mighty Enter Shikari acts announced today include WILLOW, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes who return following their secret set on The Pit stage last year,…
Starting off day two of Leeds Festival in strong fashion, we immediately make our way over to Main Stage West to catch an opening set from Southend rockers Nothing but Thieves (7), whose set seems to have been getting heavily promoted across the site’s many screens. Completely gone is the somewhat dreary weather of Friday,…
Entering back into the arena for our final day, we begin at Main Stage West with practically black skies setting a rather doomy backdrop for openers The Hara (5). Playing to one of the main stages’ smaller crowds we’ve seen this early on, the band nonetheless seem intent on making at least a visual impact,…

After a rather excellent first day that saw chaotic sets the likes of Hollywood Undead, Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes, Billy Talent and Lowlives bring a much-needed dose of rock to proceedings, the second day of this summer’s Leeds Festival looked set to be a bit more of a relaxed affair, with a Main Stage headline…
Ever since first taking place all the way back in 1999 as a spin-off sister-event to the by then well-established Reading Festival, it’s safe to say that Leeds Festival has by now grown alongside its elder sibling to become one of the biggest annual events in the UK’s music festival calendar. With the 2018 edition…
Unless you’ve been living under a rock you’ve probably heard that Paramore will be sub-headlining at Reading and Leeds this year under UK goth rock veterans The Cure. Well to get themselves in fighting shape for those two appearances Hayley and friends have scheduled an intimate warm up show in the week running up to…
One of the UK’s most successful hardcore punk bands of recent years, Gallows, complete with new vocalist Wade MacNeil (ex Alexisonfire) have released some details about their forthcoming plans for the bulk of 2012. The band are currently at work on a brand new album, the first to feature Wade MacNeil on vocals since he…
The first announcement of the August bank holiday weekender festival double bill is upon us and Reading and Leeds have thrown out a couple of surprises amongst a lineup that, in our opinion, most people could have largely predicted. For Rocksins regulars, there are some good rock and a couple of metal bands mixed in…
