4th October 2018
Redwood’s second EP flourishes with assuredness.
“The Xcerts offer a soft and brief reminder of their songwriting brilliance on ‘Late One Night'”
Even after 20 years and eight albums, High On Fire continue to show ambition and experimentation on ‘Electric Messiah’.
Black Peaks have all the ingredients of what makes a stellar rock band in 2018… ‘All That Divides’ is another triumphant release.
5/5
“Spellbinding, delicate and haunting – Julien Baker served up an unforgettable night in Manchester.”
“Once ‘S’Only Natural’ steps off the disco dancefloor, it very quickly stumbles.”
Youth Killed It capture the essence of a divided Britain with tongue-in-cheek wit”
“‘Animals Acoustic’ is a missed opportunity that offers very little”
“‘The Silver Scream’ has no right to be as fun as it is”
For this month’s edition of Under The Radar, we look at new releases from All Them Witches, The Arusha Accord, Walking Dead on Broadway, Canavar and Twin Jackal.
“a wonderfully cathartic sophomore record… the future is looking bright for Doe.”
“Palaye Royale show a better understanding of their craft as ‘Side B’ cuts off the fat.”
“On ‘Burnt Sugar’, Gouge Away show open rage is a valid therapy… the most delicious blackened mess in punk rock right now”
“a bright punk record and emotional ode to their time on the road.”
“Refined, beautiful, biting; with ‘Mental Knife‘ Hail the Sun have crafted a striking record.”
“As a comeback, ‘Island’ couldn’t really have been a more suitable record for Living With Lions.”
“‘‘Disease’’ is diverse enough to stay interesting and familiar enough to get lost in”
“‘AAARTH’ is The Joy Formidable’s step into the unknown.”
“‘American Reckoning’ possibly the most inessential thing Anti-Flag could’ve released.”
“Hypophora offer a treasure of sparkling pop, funk, math-rock and post-hardcore on ‘Douse’.”
The Story So Far take subtle risks yet don’t entirely abandon their core sound on ‘Proper Dose’.
“‘Million Dollars To Kill Me’ sees Joyce Manor continue to be undeniably themselves”
“‘Tequila Sunrise’ is an album that’s easy to like and appreciate, but difficult to love”
“‘End Of’ is not for the meek… this is quite a stunning debut from Attan”
