At the crack of Friday morning, the festival fatigue begins its course after a few hours at last night’s silent disco. This reviewer remained awake until 2am because of a crowdfunding initiative for this year’s festivities. That initiative involved a dedicated headphone channel playing several albums in full across the […]
Waking from the best ever sleep at a festival deserves some sort of accolade. After managing eight uninterrupted hours under a canvas rife with condensation, I’m raring to go for Thursday of ArcTanGent 2022. Refraining from the silent disco on the Wednesday night seemed a smart move, but there were […]
The city of Bristol has quite the legendary reputation in the history of music, giving the world not just many monumental bands and artists, but birthing entirely new genres alongside them. So in having a fourth day of ArcTanGent, a Wednesday, for the first time ever, an opportunity arose to […]
It’s the anniversary of Holloway Hell at the Lexington on Pentonville Road, but before the house band and guests start the cover song fun, the featured band playing originals is Trophies of Man fronted by Flash Sawyer formerly of King Lizard and featuring Dave Winkler of Star Circus on guitar. […]
The Electrics kick things off with their post punk guitar based rock with great saxophone playing that adds an immediate injection of hi-energy pizzazz.

GLAM! When Superstars ROCKed the World, 1970-1974 by Mark Paytress published by Omnibus Press. As someone who remembers the UK glam era, although a small child, it was a fantastic era when the music took off in an all persuasive way. My memories are mostly of watching all the glam […]

Words: Kahmel Farahani Photos: Stuart Garneys/Blue Edge Compass With a superb third solo album under his belt and a very successful European tour almost at its end, Jerry Cantrell has had a good year and tonight he has made his way to London’s 02 Shepherd’s Bush Empire to play one […]
Friday Things did not get off to a good start when two hours after general doors everybody was still standing outside the stadium. I was also disappointed to find that although I appeared on the Stadium map to have a good ticket in the stands, my view was very restricted […]
We have to thank BST for bringing Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram to our attention as he’s a bit of a prodigy having won a Grammy being only 23 and having performed in the White House at age fifteen. He already has two albums out ‘Kingfish’ delivering excellent Muddy Waters style Delta […]
