Counting Days hit the stage hard to a crowd I could count before the opening song rings the last note really generating the setting of a classic DIY Hardcore show where everyone is dotted around the floor area shyly head banging in appreciation while the band do all the hard work in giving 100% of […]
Arriving to a queue that wraps around the building and back to the entrance you expect gig goers want to pick their spot close to the front for the duration of what should be a stellar night, as PEARS (The band, not to be confused with the fruit) kick start the night while the Brixton […]
Hardcore Superstar frontman Jocke was kind enough to sit down for an interview prior their set at O2 Islington Academy in London. Your new single ‘Have Mercy On Me’ was released in October, when are we expecting the new album? “Yeah, it’s coming out in March and we’re releasing a new single 13th December called […]
Here we are at the O2 Islington Academy, kicking things off early at 6.30pm is The Last Band from Gothemburg with an extremely minimal turn out, cracking out some jokes of their place on the bill while ironically being the first band on. A cover of Bulls On Parade makes some friends in the building […]
UK 4 piece LIFETIGHT have just released a banger (literally) on Crooked Noise Records which any Hardcore fan would be proud of. Opening with Energy is precisely what is done here, as a fuelled vocalist races through a pacey hardcore tone in his voice, a heavy and upbeat drum pattern and a low ending gritty […]

Perturbator wasn’t a name I was familiar with, even with the 70k Facebook followers I’d of thought maybe along the lines I would have heard of this, but to find out this EP was the works of a self proclaimed ‘Reigning Master of Darksynth’ I guess I was in for a surprise to take up […]
MyChildren MyBride are back releasing their fourth album after a 5 year gap since their self-titled album in 2012 which people will usually call the most important release of their careers, but these guys have put more blood, sweat and tears in providing this very unique sounding record with much diversity you can not rule […]
Well, direct support for Papa Roach is Ho99o9 who make themselves noticed with a pretty impressive sized banner but no real connection to this crowd. The energy on stage is there but the general combination of sounds in a hip hop and unpredictable and unclear metal fusion ideas fail to get a single person in […]
After a 35 minute delay due to the necessity of erecting a barrier for this sold out show, The Bottom Line still take to the stage with full force as the Imperial March (Star Wars) theme starts up before opening with their latest single I Still Hate You, as the crowds reception is nothing short […]
Huxtable are a Scottish duo who have a huge influence from the likes of Royal Blood and fellow Scots-rockers Biffy Clyro, praise will be given for such an interesting combination of sounds, so without further ado, let us take you through the Change Shape Future EP. Don’t Do Anything Fancy opens with a gritty hard […]

Soon after doors open a huge wall of sound rises through the house speakers to a fairly empty room as THECITYISOURS takes the stage by storm putting on a massively impressive show to kick things off, while the Islington Academy gradually starts to fill. A cover of Labrinth – Earthquake has people singing along, although […]
