August bank holiday means only one thing – Leeds Festival AKA my favourite weekend of the entire year. Although I wasn’t as enthusiastic about this year’s line-up, it didn’t stop me heading down to Braham Park early on Thursday morning to set up camp all ready for a messy weekend ahead. When I arrived, I headed straight to Green camp ...
State Champs announced their first UK headline tour a few months back and it was certainly the talk of social media, especially as people started to create theories as to who was going to support. Once it was officially announced that Knuckle Puck and Roam were supporting I could already tell it was going to be a killer night. I ...
When Moose Blood released their first material in 2013 they certainly made an impact on the UKs emo scene, quickly attracting fans from all over the country, they toured alongside the likes of Gnarwolves and then eventually embarked on a tour of their own in aid of their debut album, “I’ll Keep You In Mind, From Time To Time”. I ...
It seems to have been a never-ending wait for Knuckle Puck’s debut album, ‘Copacetic’. It’s been 4 years of EPs and collaborations for the band, but KP are finally back and this time they come with their first full length album. After listening to the album in full a couple of times I realised Knuckle Puck clearly took the time ...
Just a few weeks ago Blitz Kids announced they were taking a break from touring to focus on writing new material, ensuring fans they would be back soon.

After nearly 10 years of constant writing, recording and touring, Blitz Kids announced their final tour for a long time whilst they take a break – not to worry though, they’re using the time to write a new record and they’ll be back once that’s finished. Announced yesterday, fans had mixed emotion as many were left disappointed that the tour was so ...
In the run up to this year’s Slam Dunk festival, Beartooth headed out across the UK to do a few warmup shows. It’s unusual for a band with any sort of recognition to come to Carlisle so when I found out Beartooth would be headlining it was essential for me to go. Supported by Dead Harts and The Color Morale ...
I’d always been told that Enter Shikari are one of Britain’s best live band and with this in mind, I knew I couldn’t miss out on seeing them this tour. I travelled to Glasgow to experience one of the best nights of my life. Although I got to the venue a few minutes late the room was still only half ...
Throughout the whole of the All Time Low/You Me At Six co-headline tour its been up to ATL to open and YMAS to close, so after over 2 hours of waiting, it was finally the turn of this Surrey based band to hit the stage. Although it was a co-headline tour there is an underlying worry for either bands that one ...
