We spoke to the duo of Amy Love and Georgia South about being musicians of colour in rock, their huge upcoming tours, and which bands everyone should be listening to right now.
Earlier this year YONAKA released their 'Seize The Power' EP, we sat down with Theresa and Alex at Leeds Festival to find out about the release and their upcoming plans.
Calva Louise are a band like no other, their blend of electronics and rock can be as heavy as it is beautiful. The band also share artistic talents as shown in their graphic novels and animated videos that accompany their blockbuster sophomore record 'Euphoric'. We sat down with the trio at Leeds Festival to talk all things Calva Louise.
We sat down with Sam Matlock and Milkie Way of Wargasm to discuss festivals, new music and if a debut album is on the horizon.
The Sherlocks have fast become one of the UK’s modern faces of British rock ‘n’ roll and indie music. They are a band bonded half by blood and all by friendship and a good ear for what makes a banger of an indie rock tune. With a third full-length soon to be expected, following on the heels of breakthrough debut record 'Live For The Moment' and stellar second studio album 'Under Your Sky', we spoke to Sherlocks before their special homecoming festival slot at Tramlines Festival all about the proud Yorkshire outfits soaring new single Falling, where the third full length will sit in The Sherlocks’ discography and that mega Sheffield Wednesday Football Club kit launch.
Visceral horror-punk and gory gothic-rock are the aesthetics and sound of East London’s Saint Agnes. Delivering their debut album 'Welcome To Silvertown' in 2019, Saint Agnes sonically showcased their fiery punk ferocity and sweet pop hooks and visually told the tale of a dark fantasy world in which Kitty A. Austen and Jon James Tufnell immerse themselves and their audience in to shocking effect. They released mini-album 'Vampire' earlier this year, showcasing that Saint Agnes’ disgusting horror-punk trash metal sound, fantastical song writing and bubble gum pink meets jet black visuals are bolder, braver and more immersive than ever before. We spoke to vocalist Kitty and guitarist Jon backstage at the Download Pilot event all about their jaw dropping performance, the characters of mini album 'Vampire' and bringing the new material to the stage at last.
As Everything Unfolds are changing up the way modern metal and post hardcore music sounds by bringing their fresh blend of melodic vocals and heavy riffs to the scene. They released their debut album 'Within Each Lies The Other' earlier this year and are now set to support Holding Absence across the UK and Europe later this year. We spoke to vocalist Charlie Rolfe backstage at the Download Pilot event all about the bands journey, the reception to the record, digitally connecting with fans and the bands Heavy Music Awards nomination.
London based duo CRASHFACE crashed onto the scene back in 2020 and have since released a string of relentless singles in the run up to dropping their blazing debut EP 'HEAVY INFECTIOUS'. A bombastic blend of alt-rock, infectiously aggressive punk, slamming riffs and sickly-sweet vocals, CRASHFACE are a band that will send a shock through the system. We spoke to vocalist/guitarist Charlie Hinton and bassist Otto Balfour all about their musical influences, the EP release and the importance of the visual aspect to a band's artistry.
Manchester’s Hot Milk are a band brimming with sheer force, delivering high octane alternative-rock-meets-mainstream-pop driven by big riffs, big choruses and equally bigger amounts of upbeat energy. Their debut EP 'Are You Feeling Alive?' demonstrates this, headed up by Han Mee and Jim Shaw’s flair for lifeful pop hooks. Having toured with the likes of rock royalty Foo Fighters and UK favourites You Me At Six, Hot Milk have grown in confidence, charisma and volume ever since. On the brink of releasing their brand new EP 'I JUST WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I’M DEAD' and with a UK tour to follow, we spoke to co-vocalists/co-guitarists Mee and Shaw backstage at the Download Pilot event, discussing their excitement for the new era of Hot Milk, the decision to release another EP and more.
Grime is undoubtedly one of the most popular and fastest growing genres of the 21st century, partner that with metal music – and you get Hacktivist. The only band in the genre. Their sophomore record 'Hyperdialect' is bursting with rage, riffs and bars that will make you want to riot. We spoke to the band about the new record, performing live, and some of the awesome features this record hosts.
