Linkin Park @ The O2 Arena London

Night one of Linkin Park in London, which has already led to a bit of a sceptical pre-show. Firstly, after much debate of tickets stating “with Special Guests” it was finally confirmed that there was no support act and the band were “happy to play a longer set” which O2 Arena stated would be 8.30pm […]

Patent Pending @ London O2 Academy

  Live from the O2 Academy in London, I had the pleasure of witnessing Patent Pending who provide nothing short of a good time when it comes to live shows, with the core energy and raw emotion they provide on stage you can’t help but find your way as close to the action as possible to get […]

Tricot – 3

  J-Math Rock. This is the only way to describe the all-girl band Tricot as they return with album #3 which is titled… 3. With 7 years experience together and numerous (and successful) tours, even supporting The Pixies at the iconic landmark (located in my home county of Cornwall) Eden Project. Tricot bring a crazed blend of music to toy […]

Patent Pending talk new album, dream tour, and more.

Priests To Pilots – Remember Me, With Favour

Fresh young pop/punk band Priests To Pilots have released their first EP titled Remember Me, With Favour and its a good one!

At The Disco last year? Or […]

Creeper w/ Milk Teeth, Energy and Puppy @ Electric Ballroom, London

A room half full for opening band Puppy, as a few heads bang in sync with the heavy tones provided getting a nice reception after each song. As they explain to the crowd about the “good bands coming up” it is noticeable that the bill is in perfect order as each band is announced, everyone […]
