Manchester’s rising stars Hot Milk erupt on their second album, Corporation P.O.P., a fierce and fearless sonic assault that refuses to play by the rules. Blending punk urgency, metal grit, and electronic experimentation, the duo of Hannah Mee and Jim Shaw channel raw energy into an album that feels both personal and political. Released via…
It’s hard to believe that Blood Command only dropped their last album Praise Armageddonism roughly 14 months ago, and we already have a follow up. World Domination is their 5th album and 2nd with Nikki Brumen. You should probably know by now to expect the unexpected when it comes to Blood Command. But even still…

CANCER BATS have been causing a stir amongst fans of heavier, punk-inspired music since their inception in 2004.

Genesis said it best: “this is a land of confusion“. With so much to navigate over the last few years and World War Three seemingly at our doorstep, there is only more uncertainty to be found. This breeds universal frustration and contempt. Pushed to breaking point, hardcore outfit Bitter Branches release Your Neighbors Are Failures…
Frank Turner has been known for many years now as a folk rock singer, adding The Sleeping Souls as his backing band in more recent years. A prolific songwriter, he has churned out high quality albums and now he bounces back into the world’s eardrums with FTHC. With this release, it seems Turner wants to…

The debut self titled e.p featuring William Gould from Creeper & Matthew Reynolds is a lovingly crafted slice…
