Interviews

Breaking Benjamin have been making their way across the pond for the first time since 2017, and we caught up with guitarists Keith Wallen and Jasen Rauch for a few minutes before their debut show in Romania. With a new album announcement imminent in the coming months and two new songs in the setlist, here's what Keith and Jasen had to share with us about the band’s current tour and their future endeavours. 

Teenage Joans have come all the way from Adelaide, Australia to play at Sound City before heading out on their UK tour. Vocalist/guitarist Cahli Blakers and drummer Tahlia Borg took some time to chat with Bring The Noise UK a couple of hours before they performed at the Arts Club Loft. 

We caught up with sibling duo The Molotovs a couple of hours before they took to the Arts Club Theatre stage at Sound City in Liverpool. Issey and Matthew Cartlidge are growing an impressive fanbase around the UK and beyond, after releasing their debut album 'Wasted on Youth' in January.

Shortly after performing on the main stage at TRNSMT Festival last summer, we caught up with Alex Moore, Scott Concepcion, Ryan Durrans and Matty Murphy of Wigan band The Lathums.

It is cold, mid-December in Scotland and our breath hangs fogging slightly in the air as we discuss all things 'Sanguivore II: Mistress Of Death' with Will Gould. Later tonight, Creeper will take to the stage for their set as support for Ice Nine Kills, and Gould is leaning against a table, his beanie hat pulled low in a bid to help fight off the biting chill. But he is buzzing and chatting with a grin to Bring The Noise UK, eyes bright, ahead of showtime.

Halestorm drummer Arejay Hale is all infectious smiles and visibly excited energy as he meets with Bring The Noise UK. We are chatting backstage at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow as we chew the fat together and break down his band's brand new record, the art of song writing and also imagine giving a Halestorm classic the full Rage Against the Machine treatment.

Making their debut at the very end of 2022, alt-rap trio Frozemode are relative newcomers in the music industry. Nonetheless, the band have tasted recent success with their EP 'Demode 2', played a string of headline dates around the UK, and have new material pending. We thought it was the perfect time to sit down with them to talk about their rollercoaster ride so far.

There’s something strangely transcendent about Amigo The Devil - a project that teeters between Vaudevillian chaos and crushing sincerity, with a healthy sprinkling of the melodramatic. Helmed by Texas-based Danny Kiranos, Amigo The Devil isn’t just music; it’s a kind of possessed cabaret.

We caught up with Jenna McDougall at 2000trees, to discuss her solo project Hevenshe and more. 

Anxious, a five-piece band hailing from Connecticut, have been making waves with their punk-rock bangers over the last couple of years, growing as artists and evolving their sound. On the last day of 2000trees, we caught up with them for a chat and a lot of laughs after their brilliant, sweaty, chaotic set.
