Live Reviews

Another year, another outstanding Reading Festival. Taking place over the August Bank Holiday weekend in Richfield Avenue, the three day epic is home to some of the biggest worldwide names spanning across genres far and wide. With a gloriously sunny landscape to top it all off, here's how our weekend at the festival went down...

We headed to Download Festival 2017 to see if the 15th edition would be just as much fun as those before it. With System of a Down, Biffy Clyro and Aerosmith headlining there really was something for everyone to enjoy.

It was foretold that Slam Dunk Festival comes but once a year, falling on the bank holiday of May. What we know for sure is that the annual event signals the beginning of the music festival season and as always Bring the Noise UK was there to help get the the party started with some of our favourite bands from across the globe.

All Time Low kicked off their 2017 Young Renegade UK tour at London's Bush Hall, and finished it tonight at Brixton Academy with support from SWMRS and Waterparks.

The pop-punk tour of the year? State Champs, As It Is and Northbound look set to steal that title following their jaw dropping O2 Forum Kentish Town show.

After announcing their new album 'All These Countless Nights' during their set at Reading Festival last year, Deaf Havana have hit the road this week for a headline tour, joined by Dinosaur Pile-Up and Dead!. Here's what went down when we took a trip to the O2 Academy Bristol earlier this week...

As venues go, a tiny medieval church is a pretty special one to use for your first ever headline show, but then Greywind aren't afraid to take risks – and this one more than paid off.

We headed to The Joiners to see the quadruple threat of Fair Weather, The Gospel Youth, WSTR and Seaway on the first date of their 2017 tour. We anticipated a night of pop-punk chaos and we got certainly got this!

After dropping new album The Stage at the end of 2016, Avenged Sevenfold are back with a brand new stage production, joined by returning hard rock legends Disturbed and Swedish melo-death stalwarts In Flames.

Within the ever stirring world of metalcore, Beartooth are an American band who have been absolutely soaring over the past year or so. During their last visit to Glasgow, they landed what could be described as a 'pretty good' impression; but with a recently released second album entitled Aggressive and a supporting tour to match, any chance to see a possibility of improvement of an already solid live band is a graciously accepted event.
