Overall, VOID shows KEN mode to be a band relentlessly focused on moving forward, rather than standing still, after nine albums.

Will Love’s Holiday ultimately stand out as one of Oxbow’s best albums? At this stage, I wouldn’t bet against it.

Fucked Up have delivered a record that is an attention-grabbing, thoughtfully executed, and ultimately moving meditation on gentrification, grief, the passing of time, and the onset of early middle age.

Oxbow kindly take time out of their day to talk to Greg Hyde about their latest release ‘An Eternal Reminder of Not Today/Live at Moers’.

Overall, Regurgitorium is a very impressive debut album. Why Patterns’ debut undoubtedly delivers the goods.

The new album from Salford’s finest isn’t their best work, but it still delivers the noise that fans of the band have come to know and love.

The album is one of the most energetic, confident, and fully formed debut punk rock albums that I’ve heard for quite some time.

Whilst I had some minor misgivings about it, Lament is still the best post-hardcore album that 2020 has given us, and it sees Touché Amoré maintain their status as the best post-hardcore band in the world.

If you’re looking for music that reflects the current degenerative, regressive, dangerous state of the world, then this album does that and then some.

The best gig I’ve seen so far this year . . . Bruxa Maria look set to become much bigger names within the UK’s growing psychedelic noise circuit.
