ALBUM REVIEW: Twenty One Pilots – Vessel
After witnessing the incredible live energy of Twenty One Pilots at The Barfly in London last month, we just had to check out their new album in full and see how it sounded
LIVE: Swound!, Camden Barfly, 5/3/12
Swound! are a band who have been on our radar for some time, and recently caught our eye when they supported Electric Six and blew the headliners clean out of the water. Tonight, they top that performance. Swound! – made up of four Staszkiewicz brothers – are very much like the UK’s very own Weezer. ‘
EP: Erik Chandler – Writing The Wrongs
Erik Chandler, one of the founding members and bass guitarist of American punk-rock band Bowling for Soup, steps into his own spotlight with the release of his first solo EP, ‘Writing The Wrongs’, released on Brando Records.

Weezer, Pinkerton Deluxe Edition
14 years have passed since Weezer first wrote, recorded and released ‘Pinkerton’, since then a lot has happened in the Weezer camp; a hiatus, seven more albums, a tour with Blink 182 and a bus crash that punctured Rivers Cuomo’s lung. Unfortunately for Weezer even more has happened to the music industry. Gone are the days where a band can simply rehash earlier material that flopped commercially and expect to be praised to high heaven for their ‘efforts’.
B.o.B, Magic feat. Rivers Cuomo
2010 has certainly proved an interesting year for Atlanta rapper B.o.B. His breakout debut single ‘Nothing On You’ featuring Bruno Mars and equally successful follow-up ‘Airplanes’ with Hayley Williams (of Paramore fame) reached Number One and Number Two in the US Billboard Charts respectively, not a bad achievement at all at the tender age of 22.
‘Death To False Metal’ is a collection of previously unreleased Weezer tracks which spans the two decades they have been together. This is their ninth album, and possibly their weakest yet. Compiling a mixture of unreleased tracks is always a risky move, and this is one that hasn’t paid off.
Weezer cause mayhem at this years Reading Festival 2010!
