ALTERNATIVE MUSIC REVIEWS
Cognitive – Malevolent Thoughts Of A Hastened Extinction
Cognitive release their new record Malevolent Thoughts of a Hastened Extinction this week and its pretty much pure death metal brilliance.
Beartooth – Below
Beartooth have absolutely no business creating an album as brilliant as they have done here. But Below has set the bar extremely high for the remaining records to come out this year.
Tiger cub – As Blue As Indigo
Tigercub released their new album As Blue As Indigo on June 18 and it is one of the albums of 2021.
Free Throw – Piecing It Together
Free Throw release their fourth album Piecing It Together on June 25. As someone who is hit and miss with the pop-punk genre, this record is one of my favourites of the year - and the genre in general.
Hacktivist – Hyperdialect
Hacktivist return with Hyperdialect, their most ferocious album to date which takes aim at the world we live in. It's one you don't want to miss out on at all.
AFI – Bodies
AFI are back with new album Bodies. The band's die-hard fanbase will love this new record.
Waxflower – We Might Be Alright
Waxflower released their EP We Might Be Alright earlier this year and it is a strong pop-punk record which show's the band's promise.
Myles Kennedy – ‘The Ides Of March’
Myles Kennedy seems to have found some miraculous way to straddle his three globetrotting projects: mega-selling Alter Bridge and Slash albums alongside this solo project. Beyond a shadow of a doubt he is the most notable vocalist in rock today, and for good reason. Those vocals combine with his own delectable guitarwork to make solo album number two a welcome addition to his ample discography.
The Spill Canvas – Conduit
The Spill Canvas have made a comeback into what is a very different music world, but new album Conduit sounds like they don’t give a damn.

Kid Kapichi – This Time Next Year
Kid Kapichi’s debut album comes to us this week, titled This Time Next Year. It owes it’s name in part because that’s what we’re all thinking about right now. The current pandemic is central to the album in many ways. The record was produced by the band themselves to get around lockdowns, it’s lyrics grappling with the alternate reality we’ve all found ourselves in.
Lonely The Brave ‘The Hope List’ review
Lonely The Brave’s new record The Hope List is a very pleasing listen, acting as my introduction to a very talented outfit at a perfect point; the band are reborn with new vocalist Jack Bennett and a new sense of drive and direction.
Silverstein – Out Of This World (Episode 1) review
