The Devil Wears Prada are back with a new album, ‘Transit Blues’, which fans will definitely enjoy. From the off set, the album is more radio-friendly than previous ones which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It’ll keep old fans pleased, and will no doubt bring the band a whole cohort of new fans.

Lost Empires, a Oklahoma 5-piece metal band dropped their EP Death: The Unveiling of Eternity today and I had a chance to have a listen.
The small crowd throughout a lot of the day may have been down to the Sunday evening timing or the genre of music not being something often seen at the venue, however the line up was one of the best the festival has seen and was a solid collection of some of the newest and most exciting rock bands out there right now. For fans old and new it was a real treat to see these bands in such a small venue & for a very reasonable price.

Glass Houses EP 'Wellspring' starts off with a voice coming from the distance, guitar coming in slowly followed by heavy drums and lyrics that hold so much passion. The two voices that are heard are unique, yet compliment each other. Truly a perfect fit.

Lights is definitely an EP worth listening to, and I hope to hear more from Glasstide in the near future....
The whole album feels like a post-hardcore multi-musical (one that I would gladly go and see!). The dual-vocals entice the listener further into the story of each track. Lyrically, the tracks tell the dark side of famous stories including Dracula, Romeo & Juliet, Animal Farm and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
Newcomers Towers, an alt quartet hailing from the UKs South Coast, will this month be releasing their debut EP. The self titled three track release has been a labour of love and hard work and the band are ready to release their sound to the world.
Okay, whoever thought of this tour is an absolute genius (someone give the guy/girl a medal!). There is bound to be chaos as I head to Cardiff's Clwb Ifor Bach for Heck and Black Peaks co-headline show.
