Live Review: Blind Guardian with The Night Eternal at The O2 Forum, London (14/04/24)
Nearly two hours of Blind Guardian magic. This might have been called The God Machine Tour, but the set they perform is more of a ‘best of’.

Live Review: Evil Scarecrow with Struck/Down and Sons of Merrick at Leo’s Red Lion, Gravesend (12/04/2024)
Everybodies favourite band with the word “Scarecrow” in their name, Evil Scarecrow are at Leo’s Red Lion, in Gravesend for the first time in over a decade.
Live Review: Mastiff with Black Groove & Yersin at The Black Heart, Camden, London (27/03/24)
Easter is around the corner, the London exodus is in full force, and a chilly Wednesday night in Camden feels more like a Saturday. Such is the appealing nature of this show. The North has invaded the Big Smoke (mostly) for a riotous night of heavy noise at the Black Heart, and it is heaving from the very start.
Live Review: August Burns Red, Dying Wish & Thrown at The Electric Ballroom (22/03/24)
I saw August Burns Red at this same venue supporting Bury Tomorrow in 2022 and it is very safe to say they raised the bar. They absolutely feel like they belong on that stage and I am incredibly pleased to see them back, headlining this same stage.

Live Review: The Infernal Sea with Necronautical & Darkest Era at The Underworld, Camden, London (10/02/24)
Darkness has consumed Camden, and it comes from within The Underworld. The black metal heathens known as the Infernal Sea have arrived to conduct unholy rituals, delivering a twisted sermon to celebrate the recent release of their immense new album, Hellfenlic.
Live Review: Saint Agnes at The Garage, London (25/01/24)
Metal, punk, rock, post-hardcore… it can only be one band, Saint Agnes, and they’re home (from East London) to cause some carnage at The Garage in Highbury & Islington. Yes, it’s The Bloodsuckers Tour, taking place across the breadth of the UK and throughout January and into February, before the group head off to Europe.
