W.A.S.P. have taken their ‘Album ONE Alive World Tour’ across the Americas and Europe and were back to finish the UK, culminating in their London date at Hammersmith Apollo before going back to Europe. They have only grown in intensity along the way! Before the London show Blackie hosted about twenty VIPs for a very […]
Halestorm is ripping through North America in support of the new album ‘Everest.’ The quartet played at the Treasure Island Amphitheater in Welch, Minnesota on a beautiful September night and played a nineteen song set that had the crowd on their feet and singing the entire night. The hard rocking band Halestorm blew […]
Gracing the Brudenell Stage on this Autumn night were two artists that I have been lucky enough to see numerous times over the last thirty odd years. Both are almost chameleon like in the way their careers have developed over that time. I first saw (and indeed reviewed) tonight’s headliner when playing with The Almighty […]
Review & Photography: Aggie Anthimidou Opening for King Diamond at Roundhouse, Unto Others made the most of their shorter slot, proving once again why they’re one of the most exciting bands in gothic rock today. Though briefer than the setlist we enjoyed at Kentish Town earlier this year, the performance was no less impactful, their […]
King 810 Blow The Rescue Rooms to Pieces With A Ferocious Onslaught of Nu Metal and Killa Riffs! Nottingham’s Rescue Rooms was pushed to its limits on Saturday night as King 810 delivered a set that blurred the line between performance and survival ritual. In a venue this close and claustrophobic, their brand of street […]
July 2025, Roundhouse, London Words & Photos: Aggie Anthimidou After nearly a decade-long wait, London was finally treated to a royal night of horror regalia, darkness and theatrical grandeur courtesy of King Diamond. For an artist who only descends upon the capital once every ten years – Kentish Town in 2016, Electric Ballroom […]
HRH Sleaze was at Leicester 02 again this year and was completely sold out! It has loyal attendees which come year after year and it’s great to catch up with them, and also make some new friends who love the same music. There are also a fair number of younger people showing that there’s new […]
229 is an old school club venue where there is literally no space between the band on stage and the crowd one step down on the floor. If you are a band that thrives on connection with its fans like Babylon A.D. it’s a chance for bonding with people and making memories that will not […]
HERE at Outernet, 2 September 2025 Review & Photos: Aggie Anthimidou Ahead of their headline show at Alexandra Palace later this year, The Hives treated fans to an intimate show celebrating the release of their latest album The Hives Forever Forever The Hives. In a venue more accustomed to corporate functions than chaos, the […]
Linkin Park has reunited and returned to Minnesota to not only celebrate their legacy but also to show that the creativity of the band is alive and well, as 2024’s release of ‘From Zero’ showcased. New vocalist Emily Armstrong ignited the crowd throughout the night and long time fans of Linkin Park enjoyed a great […]
Gojira Close Bloodstock 25 With A Ferocious Tidal Wave of Sound That Shook Catton Park To Its Core! As Sunday night fell, Gojira rose to the challenge of closing Bloodstock 2025 with a performance that was equal parts precision, power, and pure spectacle. From the crushing opener Only Pain, the French heavyweights unleashed a tidal […]
Stonedead is a gem of a festival: friendly, small, with the very manageable format of one day and one stage and a preparty which has pretty much as many attendees. They even allow people to bring in an alcohol or water allowance. No wonder tickets sell out in a few days a year in advance […]
