Traumasaur @ Frankie’s, 4th Jun

“Traumasaur’s set takes us back to fundamentals, raw and thudding on the underside, with harmonies and story piled on top. With some added twists (and a few more chords) added to its classic punk roots, it’s the sort of soundtrack to raise your heartbeat in the ways you know you like.” Gallery Learn More Facebook […]

Week Neez @ Frankie’s, 4th Jun

“Bedevilled by sound issues it’s the latter half of Week Neez’ set that really gets into gear, but it’s worth the wait. The throbbing distortion bothers you right down to the soles of your feet, and while there’s a sense of lurking evil in the tone, there’s real joy in the song.” Gallery Learn More […]

Imogen Clark @ Moshpit, 20th May

“Imogen Clark has just been climbing stairs, one at a time and relentlessly, for years now. Up and up and up. Right now the set is well above the eyeline, the sort of level you need to crane your neck to see the bottom of. These songs are rock-ribbed, stiff of spine, full of guts […]

Downgirl @ Moshpit, 20th May

“Downgirl bring the bass-heavy riffs and the get-bent attitude to please both the old heads raised on L7 as well the anger-fuelled kids of right the hell now. Fury rarely comes with such sneering, soaring song and it’s enough to launch us all clear off the ground and through the damn ceiling.” Gallery Learn More […]

Gabriel Paris @ Moshpit, 20th May

“Gabriel Paris is as Jack Johnson as it gets – the only thing missing is the sound of a beach fire crackling in the background. Each song is like being told a rich story, and it’s all you can do to not sit down cross-legged and just stare up at it. As lovely a way […]

George Alice @ Mary’s Underground, 19th May

“George Alice has total control over this music – nothing gets off its leash, nothing breaks its bounds, but somehow it still escapes the stage, the room, and the whole damn city. It plays us like worn fiddles, like obedient marionettes on the end of sweetly dark strings. What a bloody pleasure it is to […]

Becca Hatch @ Mary’s Underground, 19th May

“Becca Hatch is silk on glass, the sound of a summer breeze made solid, over beats enough to fill anyone’s sails. The wild breadth and depth in this rich pop could lighten the darkest of souls, and are more than enough to propel anyone through, past, and over the roughest terrain.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

Press Club @ The Lansdowne, 13th May

“Press Club have got so much weight in their set it (literally) rattles the floor but it somehow still seems like the whole thing’s floating on air. Packing tonight’s fun with both old faves and new teases, from the first song they come amongst us, as if it can’t be contained on the stage. And […]

Raised As Wolves @ The Lansdowne, 13th May

“Raised As Wolves sound titanic tonight, early Replacements fizz mashed up with right-now guitar song. The just-out-today track “Treading Water” rings like a triumphant hammer on an massive empty pipe, but it’s just one among this full set of clanging, crashing, soaring lovelies. Obviously, the highlight of their day was making it onto the cover […]
