Rise To Remain have been forever on the ‘rise’ these past years and have been making quite the name for themselves, but can they ‘remain’ (sorry, that was shocking!). We sat down with frontman Austin Dickinson and lead guitarist Ben Tovey ahead of their biggest headline show to date.

Manchester rockers Dear Superstar have been carving a name for themselves, touring with some huge bands and getting some much deserved attention. We caught up with frontman Micky Satiar and the rest of the band and chilled in their dressing room for a chat about collaborations, touring and their new album before their show at the Islington Academy supporting Kill Hannah.

Shortly after playing the main stage at this year’s Takedown Festival, we caught up with Luke Prebble and Scott Peters from Canterbury for a chat about the industry, the internet and the town of Canterbury.

Progressive music, particularly the emerging ‘Djent’ sub-genre, has been given a boost recently, in particular with UK bands such as Tesseract and Chimp Spanner enjoying some success, and it looks as though The Safety Fire could be next.

One of the most exciting bands around at the moment, we spoke to Black Breath about their upcoming album, which has got us licking our lips.

We sent Colin Murray down to the NME Awards to get us exclusive backstage interviews with some very big names, and he certainly delivered.

Never ones to shy away from controversy, and steadfastly carrying on their own death metal style, Cannibal Corpse have still come a long way from their early days to this new effort ‘Torture’. We caught up with guitarist Pat O’Brien to talk about songwriting and why he WAS looking forward to seeing Black Sabbath in Europe.

Last week the Bring The Noise team headed down to Scala to interview the brilliant artists Lights before her show. It’s been a while since she graced the UK with her presence, but luckily we’re a forgiving bunch. With her latest release Siberia doing ridiculously well, it’s no wonder she’s spreading her wings once again to play a serious of shows.

Whilst on their recent tour with Alesana, I Wrestled A Bear Once and Glamour Of The Kill, we got to catch up with We Came As Romans’ guitarist Joshua Moore…

There’s no rest for the wicked. As soon as the Christmas decorations had been shoved back in the loft for another year, Mallory Knox were back out on the road on a nationwide tour with Verses and Stars of the Search Party. The Cambridge quintet have been making waves on the scene ever since ‘Oceans’ crashed into our lives last year- and 2012’s promising even more melodic ear treats to come. We caught up with vocalist Mikey Chapman backstage at Islington Academy on the last day of Mallory’s journey of mayhem to talk new material, epic fans and the beauty of a nice cuppa.
