Fever 333 are no ordinary live band. With their interlaced combination of charismatic chaos and uncompromising lyricism, the enormous line that formed outside of London’s Electric Ballroom spoke a thousand words regarding how quickly they have gained a serious following.

A two weekend takeover of music, All Points East Festival returns for its second year, residing in London's leafy Victoria Park. Playing host to some of the most exciting names in music, the festival's rock ruling line-up on Friday 31st May saw headliners Bring Me The Horizon play a career-spanning set. The band's self-curated bill brought performances from Architects, Employed To Serve, IDLES, Run The Jewels, Scarlxrd, Sleeping With Sirens,While She Sleeps and more across the festival's six stages.

With debut LP 'Jord', MØL’s genre fluid musicianship has been widely complimented. Their re-released EPs, 'I' and 'II', show where it all began.

The Barrowlands is a legendary venue. Easily Glasgow’s best, and though it’s criminally underused these days, when a band books there it tends to be a sign of “we know we’re on top form and we need a venue that can handle that.” What tonight proves is that there’s an exception to every rule.

The LaFontaines have got personal on their third album 'Junior', set for release this week via SO Recordings. The Scottish trio have stuck to their genre-mixing ways to create a varied body of music, which looks set to delight fans both old and new.

Booking the cavernous O2 Academy in Glasgow is a bold move for Fatherson. The band have long had a dedicated cult size following, packing out smaller venues all around the country, but this is a seriously big room. It’s a real statement of intent for this band, a sign they want to be on those bigger stages, and if this show is anything to go by they’re liable to get there.

Brooklyn's Alicia Jeanine and Jed Smith bring to the table a joyous blend of 2019 nostalgic DIY indie pop and 60's surf rock in their punchy inaugural album: Jeanines.

With the release of their debut full length record 'Through Love & Death, You’re All I Have Left', Scottish sad rockers Dude Trips have placed themselves in a great position to become your new favourite band.

Toronto’s Alexisonfire had been quiet for most of 2018, but since the beginning of this year they have already sent shockwaves through the industry and fans alike with their two new singles 'Familiar Drugs' and 'Complicit'. The band's resurgence into touring was met with a scorching hot reception at Alexandra Palace, both in weather and vibes.

After playing as MC Lars’ backing band and supporting him on tour, there is a lot riding on this debut Ruled By Raptors release. Will it be the catalyst for a meteoric rise?
