An unashamedly fun and sturdy reminder of Neck Deep’s ability to deliver out-and-out pop-punk bangers!
Lonely The Brave’s fourth album delivers a collection of rich and empowering songs.
“The Gaslight Anthem have dipped into the past, both musically and lyrically, to create a record that is earnest, soulful, and familiar.”
“‘152’ sees a band who musically sound rich, organically embracing ambience, and collectively finding comfort in their natural growth”
Anchored by a blood-soaked narrative, ‘Sanguivore’ allows Creeper to expand their musical boundaries almost organically.
“On ‘But Here We Are’, Foo Fighters pull themselves out of the dark to produce one of their best albums in years.”
“Rips through you like a wrecking ball… ‘Blood Of The Beast’ is certainly mission accomplished”
“Hesitation Wounds channel a brand of anger that feels incredibly contemporary while still having its primal execution”
“‘Positive Rising: Part 1’ shows DZ Deathrays’ ability to change it up a bit”
“‘The Witching Hours’ draws on all the experience Avagrace have amassed”
“When it’s fast and dirty it works well. Yet, when the band aim for a grander mainstream sound, things go awry”
“Gender Roles are destined to make waves in the very near future… a wholly enjoyable burst of sonic energy and youthful exuberance”
“Exciting and uplifting with a complex, brooding edge, ‘Never Not Nothing’ is a storming debut album”
“a vicious, uncompromising ride… Knocked Loose whip up a storm of catharsis, breakdowns and bruised knuckles”
“Stunning, punishing and relaxing, often all at once… there’s strange beauty amongst the chaos”
“a comfortable album laced with a real sense of fun”
“a sense of consistency, and just an overall higher bar, set Crobot apart from most of the pack”
“an assured release that builds on their previous material for a slice of captivating punk”
“‘Things That Hurt’ has allowed Cultdreams to transition into lyrically deeper and stylistic wider territory with conviction, allowing you to continuously absorb these songs”
“A scream of defiance… ‘Atonement’ has an extremely hard edge and its heartfelt moments sparkle without dragging down the pace”
“Press Club cement their place as one of the most exciting young prospects in rock music today”
“joyous, cathartic, and heavy as fu*k… ’Curse These Metal Hands’ is a glorious record”
“It’s not like ’Artificial Void’ is completely forgettable… it’s more like a first step to bigger things”
“Slipknot have never sounded so accessible or sure of themselves”
“Mallory Knox have taken a risk… a harsher and dirtier album”
