The 'Paranoia' EP set the bar pretty high when it was released last year, but 'SUCKERPUNCH' will definitely live up to those expectations. Though some songs are easily outshined by others, this is a more than solid effort, especially for a debut album, and the soul that Maggie Lindemann has put into the making of this record is impossible to ignore.
As summer nights fade into cosy autumn days, so does our desire for summer anthems. Instead of vivacious tunes to cheers tinnies in the park to, we crave mellowed nostalgic playlists we can sip Pumpkin Spiced Lattes to. A seasonal transition that Aussie indie-rock quartet Dear Seattle’s new album, 'Someday', nails.
Parkway Drive are one of the great modern metal bands. Growing from their metalcore roots to a classic metal style that incorporates everything from whistling to orchestras, they have certainly divided opinion - so does 'Darker Still' settle this?
With a new name and fully showcasing the talents of current singer Nico Sallach, Electric Callboy have offered us one of the most fun and enjoyable releases of the year, 'TEKKNO'.
While the 10 songs found on offer are great on a musical level, 'Will of the People' swiftly falls flat when you add the often absurd or repetitive lyrics into the mix, further confirming that, save for a few exceptions, Muse’s upwards streak ended in 2018.
Longevity is a quality that is often overlooked. However, when you are a blackened death metal band lining up your twelfth studio album, it can hardly be ignore. Belphegor have been plying their dark favours now for virtually three decades and have yet to waiver from their extreme blueprint. Now, in 2022, the Austrian hellraisers are back with one of their finest outings to date with 'The Devils'.
The Chats are every geezer's favourite modern day punk band. Despite being in their early 20s it feels as if they are veterans of the scene, and despite being only their second full length record, 'Get Fucked' tells tales of fast cars, rising cigarette prices, drinking, and being struck by lightning – what’s not to like?
Pale Waves are back with their follow-up to 2021's 'Who Am I?'. As one of the most talked about band's around right now we had high hopes for the band's third album, after four successful pre-album singles.
You would be forgiven for not realising that we have waited over six years for Municipal Waste’s seventh full length album. However, if you ever saw fit to doubt them then that is totally unforgivable. As true as the day is long, Municipal Waste are a band that are incapable of dropping a dud - and 'Electrified Brain' is no different.
Hot Milk are one of the hottest properties in alternative music. The band are seemingly destined for arenas, with their new release even being written with the big stage in mind. Will 'The King and Queen of Gasoline' bring the arena stages a step closer?
