“This Is Not The End’ has allowed Spielbergs to live out their long desired rock n’ roll dreams with grounded awareness.”
“‘Midnight’ is unashamedly pop to the point you have to question how or why Set It Off were ever considered a rock band?”
“For a debut record, ‘The Language Of Injury’ has firmly cemented Ithaca’s position as a forward-thinking, diverse hardcore band.”
“Bring Me The Horizon have increasingly shown a willingness to embrace their pop sensibilities and ‘amo’ sees them go all out… It’s sure to polarise fans but BMTH wouldn’t want it any other way.”
“Papa Roach appear to be at a crossroads with ‘Who Do You Trust?’ with jarring results.”
“A sense of belief and a surge of passion threads Fever 333’s debut full-length together, living up to all expectations.”
The new year kicks off with a bang as we preview new releases from Bring Me The Horizon, Fever 333, Puppy, FIDLAR, and Taking Back Sunday.
“Radar State output thrives on an effortless punk ethos… 13 songs of unambiguous, guitar-driven melodic rock.”
“Cramming material from seven albums into 19 tracks isn’t an easy task yet ‘Twenty’ perfectly captures TBS’ career so far.”

“Architects’ execution on ‘Holy Hell’ is delivered with defiance… a compelling, uncompromising record.”
“’10 Years…’ serves as a celebration for all what Touché Amoré have accomplished over the past decade.”

The Story So Far take subtle risks yet don’t entirely abandon their core sound on ‘Proper Dose’.
“‘Palms’ is another significant addition to Thrice’s already stellar discography”
‘Master Volume’ is a strutting, steamroller of a record!
From nationally-recognised bands to local up-and-comers, Macmillan Fest had a lot to offer.
If ‘Summer Is A Curse’ is supposed to be the spark that makes The Faim the “next big thing”, then it’s a failure.
