It’s been a long time coming but finally the debut album from The Gospel Youth is here. It’s personal, kicks you right in the feelings and is everything you’d expect from the band and more. Full of emotion both lyrically and musically, Always Lose is an album with no holds barred. From the get go […]
Deathcore band ‘Acacia Strain’ have released their 8th album, Gravebloom, and the 11 track mammoth of an album is full of heavy breakdowns, growls, and drone sounds. Faster songs like ‘Calloused Mouth’ and ‘Bitter Pill’ do well to add variety to the generally almost sludgy sound with rumbling bass lines and filthy riffs under rasping […]
In This Moment are back with album number six – Ritual. As a fan of the band, I was excited to be able to listen to it early. The haunting instrumental of Salvation creates an atmospheric opening to the record. Oh Lord is repetitive with “oh lord” being used in almost every line and the […]

This past June their second album “Bloom” was released, and I personally think they couldn’t have picked a better title. They’ve burst (dare I say Bloomed) into the music […]
The first thing I need to say about this band, is that their unique approach to writing and structuring songs combined with their expressive, dynamic range of vocals really brings something else to the table. Like a modern Radiohead with more of a sludgy pop edge. Their songs are more of a story, an emotional […]
Bad Sign will release their monstrous debut album Live & Learn on July 14th through Basick Records. The London based trio have toured heavily since the release of their EP Destroy in 2014. The varying bands that they have toured with may well have played a part on the sound of this album, as it […]
Dubai based rockers Jay Wud recently released their latest record Transitions. We were excited to hear the guitar whizz’s latest effort! From the start of opening track Shine Your Light, it’s clear that there is a lot of talent with the intricate instrumentation. The vocals are unique, at times, a bit hoarse but it works. […]
