Love a bit of post-hardcore? (we do!) Giving us a taster of their new sophomore EP are new kids on the block, Story. Released on 4th March, their new record, Hopeless But Hoping, promises to not conform to genre and push the boundaries.
Brighton based rock and DnB outfit The Qemists are back after a six-year gap with the release of Warrior Sound. In a genre filled with heavyweights of music, do these boys have the warrior spirit to take on these giants?
Britain certainly has the knack for producing good hardcore. Yet, arguably, our friends across the pond still lead the way in the aggressive sub-genre.
