As another year draws to a close, we’re taking a look back at some of our favourite albums and EPs from 2021. With live shows having made a comeback earlier this year, there’s also been a vast amount of great new music for us to listen to. Some tough decisions had to be made to narrow down our lists, but read on to find out who we absolutely loved listening to this this year. Let us know your favourite releases by tweeting us @BringTheNoiseUK!

A flair for the dramatics and theatrics brought to stage in haunting horror punk style.  

The Raven Age released their latest album 'Exile' earlier this year, check out our gallery from their Glasgow show here.

The original version of the track features on their latest album 'Manic'.
