Interview: Hannah chats with lo-fi grunge punks Liliths Army

By Hannah Calver
After reviewing Liliths Army's latest album ‘Doll’, I received a message from singer and guitarist Sylvie Studente asking if I’d like to do an interview with them. Of course, I said yes - what a great opportunity to get to know the band (Sylvie, Sam Sherwood the drummer and Tommy Mayo on bass) a bit better! Sylvie also told me, “We’ve started recording our next album. It Continue Reading

Album review: Rat Hole are not scared of calling you a C*nt!

By Ruth Rae
Essex boys Rat Hole are here to take you back to a time when punk was unpretentious, underrated, and unequivocally unspeakable! Debut album 'Proper Cunt Music' dropped on 5th June, along with a riotous album release party at London's legendary Hope & Anchor.

However, Bar Stool Preachers are not like most bands – as their growing legions of fans will tell you! Opening proceedings on each evening were the Continue Reading

Album review: Diaz Brothers – ‘The World Is Yours’ 

By Alex Goose
Well, after witnessing Diaz Brothers’ storming gig at London’s Hope & Anchor back in early January, how could we not check out their new record? ‘The World Is Yours’ (yep, that’s a ‘Scarface’ reference!) is the band’s second, after 2020’s self-titled debut, but the members are all old hands at this punk rock lark, having been active in other bands since the 80s.Continue Reading

Album review: Iron Lung – ‘Adapting // Crawling’

By Alex Goose
None more bleak. Perhaps Iron Lung should have chosen to release ‘Adapting // Crawling’ in the depths of winter, rather than in the springtime, because this is a seriously dark record - both sonically and lyrically. Occupying a space somewhere between hardcore and noise rock, it’s the American duo’s first release since 2013’s ‘White Glove Test’, and their fourth overall.Continue Reading
