Gavin Brown caught up with Urlo from The Mon/Ufomammut to get an insight into new The Mon album Songs Of Embrace, The Mon live shows and what Ufomammut have planned next.

Overall, this makes for a brilliant tour package, showcasing that even some of the seemingly rigid sub-genres are capable of versatility and variety. With this Doom Triumvirate, the gloom, the misery, and the melancholy are all very real; but so fortunately is the joy, the passion, and the melody.  

Tagli/Talee oozes a screamo creativity, passion and energy that really deserves attention.

Italian death metal mavericks Bedsore had a busy and successful year with the release of their new album Dreaming The Strife For Love, so Gavin Brown caught up with Jacopo and Stefano from the band to get an insight into Bedsore’s 2024.

Gavin Brown caught up with Fulci guitarist Dome who talked to us in depth about their new album Duck Face Killings as well as discussing everything from horror to hip hop and much more.

After having seen Slowtorch perform an impressive headline set on the first day of the recent Bear Stone Festival, we asked the band about some of their influences.

Hidden is an excellent psychedelic doom album that pierces the eardrums and grows with every listen.

King Howl’s new album, Homecoming, represents a new chapter in the band’s stylistic universe. . . A mix of blues, stoner, psychedelia, and classic rock that paints the soundscape of an on-the-road story set in 1960s America. . .

Both bands attempt to push the envelope of death doom with their strict no-guitars mantra, delivering a crushing split release of bass-only reverence and subversion.

The Italian’s fourth album fails to live up to the progression evidenced on their celebrated previous masterpiece.

To fly through post-hardcore, screamo, mathy sections, even near d-beat in 11 tracks and 29 minutes whilst still encouraging multiple listens without being overwhelming is a great achievement.

Shows the potential of what could be even better for the next release.

Every so often, a line-up crops up that just feels right. One where everyone on the bill has some sense of commonality that goes beyond a similarity in sound and into the realms of the existential, where the same sense of purpose and soul can be felt in every performer. This is one of those nights.

A Man and His Nature is an album about isolation, soaked in isolation, recorded in isolation. A dark, brooding slab of European post-metal.

For best results you should be drunk, in a dark space, submerged in fierce volume.

A cracking album full of mini belters, gargantuan riffs and a heap of future potential.

Gavin Brown talked to Ufomammut about their new album ‘Fenice’, new sound and what it means for Ufomammut to be back making and releasing music again.

More great arty, indie, pop from our Roman friends Sterbus – They came, they saw, they did the gardening….

Even when plying these discordant shards, there’s an oof kicked out from their fused solar plexuses. It is rock ’n’ roll as an aphrodisiac, as a vector of sexuality.
