Live review: Fantazmaz at Trinity, Harrow, on 15th Aug 2025

By Alex Goose August 17, 2025

A while back, I resolved to try to stop constantly comparing bands to my beloved Motörhead, but it has to be said that Lemmy and co would surely approve of Fantazmaz; tonight, everything really is louder (and rawer, and more intense) than everyone else.Continue Reading

Nick Standing AKA Jabun created a DIY ska punk/pop punk music project calling it Better Than The Book. His third full-length album ‘Side Character In My Own Life’ was released on 13th June 2025. This whole album is absolutely brilliant! So much passion and hard work has been put into the songs, and it definitely shows in every track. There are times I’ve wanted to skank, Continue Reading

Nerf Herder, London New Cross Inn, 31st July 2025

By Alex Goose August 1, 2025

It may have been a grey and rainy day, but any hint of negativity has been well and truly left at the door of the New Cross Inn this evening. Self-styled purveyors of ‘geek rock’, Nerf Herder have finally returned to these shores after 22 years, and although the quartet have only ever been minnows in comparison to fellow Californians Blink 182 and Weezer, they certainly Continue Reading

EP review: Clobber – ‘God Loves, Man Kills’

By Alex Goose July 28, 2025

In the words of frontman Charlie Longman, this EP is “the heaviest, nastiest thing that Clobber have ever written. We are a band that will always reflect the world around us, and it has never been nastier or heavier to live through.” The man does not lie - has he ever?Continue Reading

Album review: Moving Targets – ‘Red Eyes’

By Alex Goose July 21, 2025

Appropriately enough, considering that Moving Targets are a noisy trio from Massachusetts, much of this record brings to mind fellow noisy American trios Dinosaur Jr and Hüsker Dü. If you enjoy the aforementioned legends’ fondness for splicing melodies with seriously abrasive guitars, then trust us when we say that ‘Red Eyes’ will be right up your boulevard.Continue Reading

Live Review: Bright N Sleazy Festival at Daltons, Brighton, 11-13th July 2025

By Sonny Tyler July 19, 2025

The seagulls of Brighton were in for a treat last weekend, as they were to be served a generous helping of Punk Rock to go with their stolen chips. Daltons is my new favourite local venue, and with its beer garden backing literally onto Brighton Beach, it's a hard location to beat. We missed the Friday evening kick-off of Bright N Sleazy Festival, but we caught most of the Continue Reading
