Comets On Fire - Blue Cathedral

Review by Mike Diver

Pretentious nu-prog or mind-bending psychedelic ear candy? Or both!? Heck, Comets On Fire don't think about what they're playing, they just play it, maaan. And they play GOOD.»

Paint The Town Red - Pt 2: Home Is Where The Hate Is

On paper, PTTR are nothing, just another European hardcore crew with a couple of major tour support feathers in their collective cap, but once 'Home Is Where The Hate Is' hits the stereo, they prove to be something else entirely...»

"I like the randomness of sound.”

In Depth by Mike Diver

Nottingham is famous for few things, but with a blossoming alternative music scene, recently thrust into the mainstream thanks to Seachange's whopping debut album, DiS turns its attention to Designer Babies, a band that might just be as bonkers as their music suggests...»

Helen Stickler - Stoked - The Rise And Fall Of Gator

Review by Mike Diver

I don’t skate. I can’t, frankly – put me on one of those four-wheeled planks and I’ll hit the dirt quicker than OAPs apply denture adhesive at a rock cake bake-off. 80s pro Mark ‘Gator’ Rogowski certainly could though. Until he went bad...»

Death Cab For Cutie - The Sound Of Settling

Review by Mike Diver

With a Blink 182 tour support slot in the bag, what better a time is there for DCFC to go all pop-punk on us and release a single that's the aural equivalent of a 15-year-old baggy panted skate kid?»

Review by Mike Diver

...maximum volume and raging metal is balanced skilfully with drone and ambience to create a record that is so much more than the mere sum of its considerably talented parts...»

Das Oath - Das Oath

Review by Mike Diver

Maybe Das Oath should just change their name to Punk F*CKING Rock, since they OWN the genre - brutal, crazy fast punk rock doesn't get any better than this.»

Goings On Across The Pond - Republicans ban music and Missy encourages voting

News by Mike Diver

They're bonkers over there in the US - if it's not Republicans telling kids not to listen to rap, it's rappers telling kids to get out and vote. Which is kinda odd...»
